Marvel's plans for Star Wars when The Battle of Jakku maxi-series concludes in January. We're hopeful that more details about what's to come will be doled out in the coming weeks.

It will also feature the Star Wars equivalent of kaijuCharles Soule said he's working on a story about a character he didn't name, but noted that Marvel is working on some "other stuff" that's not yet been revealed or even discussed publicly.Upcoming Star Wars comics, graphic novels and omnibuses:Oct. 29 _ Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The New Republic, Vol. 8Oct. 30 — Echoes of Fear #3 (of 4), Battle of Jakku -- Insurgency Rising #3, The High Republic Adventures Phase III #11Oct. 31 _ Age of Resistance — Kylo Ren #1 (Trick or Read Reprint)Nov. 6 _ Battle of Jakku -- Insurgency Rising #4, Ahsoka #5 (of 8)Nov. 12 _ Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The Original Marvel Years — Droids & Ewoks;

We're taking a step back from our usual coverage of Star Wars comics to interview Bryan Reheil, a writer whose three-issue limited series from Scout Comics -- Milk Run -- debuts on Nov. 27.It's a great story, set in Philadelphia, about Zack Morgan who can create a portal that takes him as far back as 10 years in the past, something he uses to buy groceries to make ends meet, hence the "milk run" in the title. Yet his life starts to change as he ponders the subject of a true-crime podcast about the murder of two beloved social workers and he realizes he might be able to use his power for good.Written by Reheil, with art by Jarret Katz, colors by Robert Nugent, letters and design by Rob Jones and edited by James B. Emmett, it's a story that brings to mind time-traveling adventure akin to "Minority Report" and even "Back to the Future." We've read the first issue and, no lie, we're clamoring for the second one.The issue has two covers -- one by Katz and one by Laura Helsby -- and can be ordered at your comic shop, via Previews World or directly from Scout Comics.

The post-Original Trilogy era takes root in Marvel's Star Wars comics this week with the launch of the 12-issue The Battle of Jakku maxi-series, a sprawling run that's poised to bridge the gap between the just concluded Star Wars and Darth Vader runs with whatever's due to come out in February, and does so in a dramatic, if not menacing fashion.Insurgency Rising #1 (of 4) sets up twain stories in the immediate aftermath of the second Death Star's destruction, bringing to comics key figures from the Aftermath trilogy of novels, the 2015 Star Wars Uprising mobile game and legacy characters like Leia and Luke, with readers poised to learn the events leading up to the fateful final fight over Jakku.It's been a longtime coming, this new story. Based on the first issue, it's poised to deliver.Star Wars: Inquisitors concludes its four-issue run with a story that balances the premonition of knowing when to sacrifice a dream but doing so with a sense of accomplishment in a lushly illustrated tale that spans from Order 66 to the height of the Inquisitorius.Comics Discussed This Week:Inquisitors #4 (of 4) (5:50)The Battle of Jakku -- Insurgency Rising #1 (of 4) (19:00)Star Wars Comics New to Marvel Unlimited This Week:Darth Maul: Black, White & Red #3 (of 4)News: Former DC Comics editor Dan DiDio on why a crossover between Star Wars and Batman, Wonder Woman and Superman didn't happen.The trade paperback collecting Dark Horse Comics' The High Republic Adventures -- Dispatches From the Occlusion Zone four-issue mini-series is due out June 24.Upcoming Star Wars comics, graphic novels and omnibuses:Oct. 8 _ Star Wars: Vader's Castle The Deluxe Library Collection (Collects Tales From Vader's Castle, Return to Vader's Castle, Shadow of Vader's Castle, Ghosts of Vader's Castle and 2019 FCBD Issue story "Droid Hunters”)Oct. 9 _ Dispatches From the Occlusion Zone #1 (of 4), Ewoks #1 (of 4), Ahsoka #4 (of 8), Echoes of Fear #2 (of 4), Saber for Hire #4 (of 4)Oct. 16 _ Battle of Jakku -- Insurgency Rising #2 (of 4)Oct. 29 _ Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The New Republic, Vol. 8Oct. 30 — Echoes of Fear #3 (of 4), Battle of Jakku -- Insurgency Rising #3, The High Republic Adventures Phase III #11Oct. 31 _ Age of Resistance — Kylo Ren #1 (Trick or Read Reprint)Nov. 6 _ Battle of Jakku -- Insurgency Rising #4, Ahsoka #5 (of 8)Nov. 12 _ Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The Original Marvel Years — Droids & Ewoks;
