Star Wars Comics - Star Wars Comics VO

 The Star Wars universe is massive, but it doesn’t just live on the big screen. Some of the best Star Wars stories aren’t in movies or TV—they’re in comics and novels. Whether you want to explore new corners of the galaxy, dive deeper into your favorite characters, or witness untold battles and betrayals, the Star Wars Expanded Universe has something for every fan.

And no, these aren’t just throwaway license comics. Marvel’s modern Star Wars run has been consistently excellent, and many of these series stand on their own as great comics, period.

The Best Star Wars Comics

Star Wars (2015-2019, Marvel) – The modern flagship series, set between A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back. It explores Luke’s early struggles with the Force, Leia’s role in the Rebellion, and Vader’s relentless pursuit of the Rebels. A must-read for fans of the original trilogy.

Star Wars (2020-Present, Marvel) – Picks up after Empire Strikes Back, showing Luke’s path to becoming a Jedi, Lando’s uneasy alliance with the Rebels, and Vader’s continued hunt for Skywalker.

Darth Vader (by Kieron Gillen & Salvador Larroca, Marvel) – Possibly the best Star Wars comic ever. Gillen turns Vader into a Shakespearean-level tragic villain, giving us a chilling, character-driven deep dive into his life between Episodes III and IV. Also, this series gave us Doctor Aphra, one of the best new characters in the franchise.

Darth Vader (by Charles Soule, Marvel) – If Gillen’s Vader was about his fall and isolation, Soule’s run is about his raw, brutal rise to power after Revenge of the Sith. Dark, emotional, and full of intense Sith lore.

The Old Republic (Knights of the Old Republic & Tales of the Jedi; Dark Horse) – Set thousands of years before the movies, these comics show the Jedi and Sith at war like we’ve never seen before. If you love KOTOR, these are must-reads.

Doctor Aphra (Marvel) – Spinning out of Darth Vader, Aphra is basically Indiana Jones meets Star Wars with a morally gray lead. She’s brilliant, reckless, and constantly in way over her head. If you want a fresh Star Wars story with a different kind of hero, this is the one.

Star Wars: Bounty Hunters, War of the Bounty Hunters (Marvel) – If you love the grimy underworld of Star Wars, bounty hunters like Boba Fett, Bossk, and Valance get their moment to shine in these action-packed crime stories.

Star Wars Novels – Expanding the Universe Even Further

The Thrawn Trilogy (Timothy Zahn) – The original Star Wars expanded universe epic. Thrawn is one of the greatest villains in Star Wars history, and these books are a must-read for fans of galactic strategy and Imperial scheming. 

The High Republic (Ongoing series by various authors) – A new era of Star Wars storytelling set hundreds of years before the Skywalker saga. Jedi at their peak, new villains, and a fresh take on the galaxy’s golden age.

Darth Plagueis (James Luceno) – A dark, intense look into Sith politics and power. If you’ve ever wondered about Palpatine’s master and the deeper secrets of the Dark Side, this book delivers.

Master & Apprentice (Claudia Gray) – A brilliant exploration of Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi’s early relationship. If you loved The Phantom Menace or want deeper insight into Jedi philosophy, this one’s for you.
