Writer Duane Swierczynski and artist by Fernando Blanco will make their
Star Wars debut for
Marvel with a new comic book that recounts how
Rebel Alliance spy Cassian Andor and the glib
Imperial security droid K-2SO first met.
On the new book, Swierczynski stated, "
When I first heard about Rogue One, I was thrilled. A heist movie set in the Star Wars universe? Are you kidding? Never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d be invited to tell a small piece of that story. And it was even cooler that I was asked to write about the first meeting of Cassian and K-2SO — easily my two favorite characters in the movie. What can I say? I love bad-asses and robots."
The new title doesn't have an exact release date yet but should be hitting retailer shelves some time in August. Will you be adding it to your pull-list?
The comic marks the fourth prose spin-off release from the successful Disney and Lucasfilm prequel which earned $1.056 billion from an estimated production budget of $200 million.
