Star Wars #1 unveils — Segura charts the next era for Luke, Leia, and Han

The galaxy moves forward after Return of the Jedi. Alex Segura and Phil Noto kick off a fresh chapter where Luke, Leia and Han each confront new threats that could shape the New Republic’s future.

Marvel’s latest Star Wars entry lands with a clean‑lined cover by Phil Noto and a script from New York Times bestseller Alex Segura. This first issue marks the start of a new story arc that follows the original trio into uncharted political and criminal terrain.

Luke Skywalker finds himself on the front lines, tasked with holding the New Republic together while a ruthless band of mercenaries tests the fledgling government’s resolve. Across the galaxy, Han Solo digs into a lethal underworld puzzle, rescuing an unexpected partner along the way. Meanwhile, Leia Organa wrestles with a newly formed alliance that runs counter to the Republic’s goals, forcing her to balance diplomacy with conviction.

Segura brings a narrative bite that feels both familiar and daring, while Noto’s art delivers crisp, cinematic panels that highlight the expansive scope of the saga. The issue sets up intersecting storylines that promise to deepen each character’s arc, making it a compelling entry point for longtime fans and newcomers alike.
