Marvel Comics To Finally Adapt 'The Rise Of Skywalker' Into Comic Form
Marvel Comics will adapt Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker starting on February 26, 2025, with five issues finally coming out. The comics will be written by Jody Houser and illustrated by Will Sliney, with covers by Phil Noto, Jodie Muir, and Brian Stelfreeze. The Rise of Skywalker adaptation will bring scenes from the movie to the page and expand on other all-new moments that ultimately didn’t make the final cut of the 2019 movie.
The storyline of the new Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker adaptation:
“THE FINAL BATTLE FOR THE GALAXY BEGINS!
As the Resistance struggles against the First Order’s dominance, Poe Dameron discovers an unthinkable threat on the horizon. As the fate of the galaxy hangs in the balance, Rey must find a way to the hidden Sith hideout, putting her on a collision course with Kylo Ren! With only hours to act, will our heroes avert the devastation of the FINAL ORDER?”

The limited Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker comics were originally announced for a June 2020 publication, but then the release was delayed and even declared “canceled” by November of that year. There was no official announcement surrounding the cancellation, but it was assumed that the Covid-19 pandemic had complicated the progress of the series. All concept art and details surrounding the first issue have not changed since then.
