Star Wars Celebration: Lucasfilm Publishing Panel Recap

It was Lucasfilm Publishing's turn at Star Wars Celebration, and I won't lie to you: there wasn't much brand-new there. But you can always partly attribute that to having separate panels for the High Republic publishing initiative, Dark Horse, and Marvel. In any case, Star Wars readers have a lot to look forward to. Thank you to StarWars.com for the closer look at what was shown during the panel.



First, a bit of housekeeping. In case you missed it thanks to the two High Republic releases this past week, DK's Star Wars: 100 Objects is available now wherever books are sold. Kristin Baver explores one hundred of the most important props and items from a galaxy far, far away. From Amazon.com:

One of those objects is Nemik's now infamous manifesto from Andor. Check it out below alongside the Path Safehouse Remnant:

DK's second big release of the year is the highly-anticipated Star Wars: Timelines. The wait is almost over -- it's due out on April 25. The panel was treated to new interior pages that continue to showcase the painstaking detail that went into the massive reference book:

The final major offering from DK is The High Republic: Character Encyclopedia. Coming November 7, get a closer look at everyone from the golden age of the Jedi. The panel got a look at some pages, including Jedi Master Avar Kriss and the villainous Marchion Ro.

From a Certain Point of View: Return of the Jedi was then up to bat, but not much was offered. However, we did learn about a few more of the 40 stories; among the two revealed are: Kristin Baver is writing a story about Sy Snootles, and Adam Christopher (Shadow of the Sith) will tackle The Rise of Skywalker's General Pryde. That novel will be released on September 5.



The panel then rehashed Dark Horse's Tales from the Death Star, publishing from Young Jedi Adventures, and Crimson Climb, an upcoming young adult novel about the rise of Qi'ra in Crimson Dawn. Here are some other covers and titles also revealed during the panel:
