Lucasfilm's Journey To Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Publishing Plans Includes Two Comic Titles

The lead up to the Rise of Skywalker will include many books and two comic titles.  One title is from Marvel Comics:

Journey to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: Allegiance

Publisher: Marvel Comics
Author: Ethan Sacks
Artist: Luke Ross

Description: On the run since the destruction of the Starkiller Base, General Leia and the remaining handful of Resistance have barely managed to survive, much less strike back against the superior forces of the First Order. Running low on options, Leia decides to reach out to her former allies, the Mon Calamari, whose shipyards once powered the Rebel Alliance.

Allegiance will be a 4-issue mini-series published in the month of October.  Two story lines from early last year focused on the Mon Calamari: Burning Seas from Darth Vader #13 - 17 and Mutiny at Mon Cala from Star Wars #44 - 49.  I suspect this new story will tie into those previous tales.

The other title is from IDW Publishing:

Journey to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: Star Wars Adventures

Publisher: IDW Publishing
Author: John Barber, Michael Moreci
Artist: Derek Charm, Tony Fleecs

Description: In a series of original stories, the mighty Wookiees of Kashyyyk must defend their home against the armies of the evil First Order. Plus, R2-D2, C-3PO, and BB-8 team-up on a top-secret spy adventure for the Resistance.

These original stories will be told in Star Wars Adventures #27 - 29.
