THE GALACTIC STARCRUISER’S ANTHOLOGY SERIES EMERGES; THE HALCYON LEGACY! In ep 105, Mike delves into 6 stories within 5 comics surrounding the canon cruise ship The Halcyon which span from The High Republic Era all the way up to The Last Jedi, with stories in each of the main eras of the current Star Wars canon! As some pirates try to capture a resistance spy from the ship, stories are told to keep a young girl’s mind off of the havoc, including an adventure with Wookiee padawan Burryaga, bounty hunter Aurra Sing fighting a monster, Maz Kanata working with Hondo Ohnaka & Lando to steal back an artifact, Anakin & Padmé pursue a senator and a man is tracked down by some familiar bounty hunters – all within this exciting episode!
This episode was first released on the feed of Comics In Motion, in August 2022.
The main/frame story is set after The Last Jedi but before The Rise of Skywalker, around 34ABY. The subsequent stories are set around phase 1 of the High Republic (230BBY), the clone wars (22-19BBY), the imperial era (10ABY) and near A New Hope (0-1ABY).
Halcyon Legacy was written by Ethan Sacks with Will Sliney as artist and Rachelle Rosenberg as colour artist. Issue 1 was released February 2nd 2022, issue 5 was released August 3rd 2022 and the trade paperback collection is due for release November 1st 2022.
Previously, in ep 104, the second batch of Crimson Reign comics were in Mike’s sights, which continues Qi’ra & Crimson Dawn’s efforts to disrupt the Empire’s hold on the galaxy, including Ochi Of Bestoon & Deathstick attack, Aphra continues to search for Ascendant artifacts with Sana Starros, Vader kills suspected Crimson Dawn collaborators, the Bounty Hunter crew searches for 4-LOM and Shara Bey tries to escape the star destroyer Tarkin’s Will without being noticed by the Empire!
