Ben is dead. Long live Kylo Ren.

Padme is dead. Long live ... Padme?

Valance isn't dead, but with company that includes Bossk and Boba Fett he may be shortly.

This episode is ripping at the seems with Star Wars comics stories that see readers follow Ben Solo's collapse into Kylo Ren in that mini-series final issue. In the pages of Darth Vader #2, echoes are stirred of a love that left both in ruins. Bounty Hunters #1 begins with a bang and never lets up, casting a gritty pall over the Star Wars underworld that you won't be able to wash off, even if you're using bleach.

In short, March 11 is a day that will be long remembered by Star Wars comics readers for all the right reasons.
