Following on from the success of the comic book adaptations of “The Mandalorian” and “Obi-Wan Kenobi”, Marvel has announced a new comic book adaptation of the Disney+ Original series, “Ahsoka”.

The new eight-issue comic book series will be coming out in July and will deliver all the action and drama from the show as it follows Ahsoka’s galaxy-spanning quest to bring Grand Admiral Thrawn to justice. The saga also featured the villainous Morgan Elsbeth, introduced mysterious Force-users Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati and marked the live-action debuts of various characters from the Star Wars Rebels animated series, including Sabine Wren, Hera Syndulla, and Ezra Bridger. Relive all these thrilling moments and more in a brand-new way!

The new comic book series has been written by Rodney Barnes with art by Steven Cummings and Georges Jeanty, who are the team who masterfully adapted both seasons of “The Mandalorian” for Marvel Comics. Cummings and Jeanty will alternate on illustrating, with Cummings launching the series with issue #1.

Rodney Barnes told StarWars.com. 

“It is truly an honor to be adapting Ahsoka.  The character is the essence of classic Star Wars: layered, complex and fun! I hope the fans enjoy this adaptation as much as the series it’s adapted from.”

Editor Mark Paniccia added:

“We’re big fans here at Marvel, and we’ve been wanting to do something with Ahsoka for a long time.  By the Force our dream finally came true!”

Here’s a look at the cover art for the first issue:
