Marvel Comics to take back the Star Wars comic license from Dark Horse Comics
I just found out that Marvel Comics is going to take back the Star Wars comic license from Dark Horse Comics sometime next year. Is this true? Here's a reliable source of what I found out so far: http://goodereader.com/blog/electronic-readers/marvel-to-attain-star-wars-comic-license AdamDeanHall (talk) 21:33, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

Marvel Section
I believe there should be a redirection from the subsection of Marvel Comics to a a new entry: Star Wars (Marvel Comics). This was a long-lasting series and I think the notable story arcs should be synopsized and characters created just for this series should be discussed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.221.229.121 (talk) 00:05, June 21, 2013

We should specify which comics are Star Wars Canon, and which comics are Star Wars Legends
At least on the main table. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rosvel92 (talk • contribs) 10:27, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

Darth Maul - Son of Dathomir is Canon
Despite being published by Dark Horse, Darth Maul Son of Dathomir is canon because is based on scripts for unproduced The Clone Wars episodes Someone please change it on the main table of all comics.Rosvel92 (talk) 05:46, 4 August 2016 (UTC)Rosvel92


 * Good catch, I'll fix that.— TAnthonyTalk 06:22, 4 August 2016 (UTC)

Improved the table of the canon comics
We should add the missing the Canon content into other tables, the idea is to have 3 tables: Marvel:
 * Film Adaptations
 * Comics
 * Comic Strips

Once you figure how to do a table with the Story before the Force Awakens comics whom I think are not Marvel, I think that we can be able to remove, all the canon comics from the List of Star Wars comics article, so it only contains Legends comics.

And maybe after doing that we should give the canon comics their own article, and merging the list of Legend comics into this one, so it can be a Legends comic only article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rosvel92 (talk • contribs) 10:32, 22 August 2016 (UTC)


 * You are not getting it. "Canon" is not an encyclopedic approach to the extent of formatting articles around it. List of Star Wars comic books serves as an in-universe chronological listing of all works. Because it is story-based, it is more appropriate that canon and Legends be separated, but both included. This article discusses all SW comics from a real-world publishing perspective. Obviously it is appropriate that we note canonicity as needed, but not in the way you are thinking.— TAnthonyTalk 14:23, 22 August 2016 (UTC)

Screaming Citadel is a one-shot
Like Vader Down, Screaming Citadel is a one-shot, being the first in a 5-part crossover story arc. Part 2: Star Wars #31 Part 3: Doctor Aphra #7 Part 4: Star Wars #32 Part 5: Doctor Aphra #8 Jpellegrini9 (talk) 03:00, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

Upcoming Comics
Would it be ok to add upcoming books to the lists? Or should I stick to only what's been released.
