The adaptation of <b>Thrawn Alliances</b> ends with a cliffhanger and what's surely to be another four-issue mini-series collecting the second half of the Timothy Zahn novel. In <b>Darth Vader #45</b>, Enric Pryde proves his mettle -- and loyalty -- to Vader, despite his fellow Schism Imperial members' bewilderment. Finally, The High Republic travels to Phase II as Tey Sirrek takes center stage in Phase III in a story that provides clarity and romance in <b>The High Republic #6</b>.<br /><br /><b>Comics Discussed This Week:</b><br /><ul><li>Thrawn Alliances #4 (of 4) (14:06)</li><li>Darth Vader (Vol. 3) #45 ( )</li><li>The High Republic Phase III #6 ( )</li></ul><b>Star Wars Comics New to Marvel Unlimited This Week:</b><br /><ul><li>Darth Vader (Vol. 3) #42</li><li>The High Republic -- Shadows of Starlight #4 (of 4)</li></ul><b>News: </b><br /><ul><li>The High Republic Adventures Phase III #5 and 6 have been delayed by week to April 24 and May 22, respectively.</li><li>Thrawn Alliances will likely continue in a second four-issue miniseries, hopefully to be announced in July's solicits.</li><li>We're awaiting an official announcement for the Star Wars: The Acolyte #1 one-shot.</li></ul><b>Upcoming Star Wars comics, graphic novels and omnibuses:</b><br /><b></b><br />April 16 _ Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The New Republic, Vol. 1 NEW PRINTING (Collects Mara Jade - By the Emperor’s Hand 0-6, Shadows of the Empire - Evolution 1-5, The Jabba Tape, Boba Fett - Twin Engines of Destruction and material from Star Wars Tales 1, 3-5, 10, 14-15, 20 and 22); Bounty Hunters Vol. 7 TPB “Dark Droids” (Collects 35-42)<br /><br />April 17 _ Mace Windu #3 (of 4), Saber for Hire #1 (of 4)<br /><br />April 23 _ Star Wars by Gillen & Pak Omnibus (Collects Star Wars (2015) 38-75, Star Wars Annual 4, Star Wars: Empire Ascendant 1); Doctor Aphra (Vol. 2) Vol. 7 “Dark Droids” TPB (Collects 32-40)<br /><br />April 24 _ The High Republic Adventures Phase III #5, Darth Maul: Black, White & Red #1 (of 4), Jango Fett #2 (of 4)<br /><br />April 30 _ Shadows of Starlight TPB (Collecting 1-4)<br /><br />May 1 _ The Phantom Menace Special #1 One-Shot<br /><br />May 4 _ Young Jedi Adventures (FCBD), Star Wars #1 (FCBD)<br /><br />May 8 _ Darth Vader #46, The High Republic Phase III #7<br /><br />May 15 _ Saber for Hire #2 (of 4), Mace Windu #4 (of 4)<br /><br />May 21 _ Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The Old Republic, Vol. 1 NEW PRINTING (Collects Knights of the Old Republic 1-18 and material from Kings of the Old Republic/Rebellion 0) <br /><br />May 22 _ Star Wars #46, The High Republic Adventures Phase III #6<br /><br />May 29 _ Darth Maul: Black, White & Red #2 (of 4), Jango Fett #3 (of 4)<br /><br />June 5 _ Star Wars #47, The High Republic Phase III #8<br /><br />June 11 _ Star Wars Legends: The New Republic Omnibus, Vol. 2 (Collects Star Wars: The Jabba Tape; Heir to the Empire 1-6, Dark Force Rising 1-6, The Last Command 1-6.
