Star-Wars-The-Force-Awakens-1-Cover-b59cbCouldn’t get enough of Star Wars: The Force Awakens? Need something more to tide you over until Rogue One hits theatres later this year? Well you’re in luck! Marvel is set to release a 6-issue comic adaptation of the blockbuster film this June!

Relive the epic story that reawakened the Star Wars franchise as writer Chuck Wendig (Star Wars: Aftermath) and illustrator Luke Ross (Hercules) team up to bring us the tale of how a young scavenger named Rey, a deserting Stormtrooper named Finn, an ace pilot named Poe, and a dark apprentice named Kylo Ren are caught up in the galactic war between The Resistance and The First Order

Continuing the tradition of Star Wars comic adaptations dating back to 1977, this team has really captured the look and feel of the film and the series features some of its most memorable moments. The cover and variants by Esad Ribic are also absolutely stunning!

Star Wars: The Force Awakens #1 hits the shelves on June 22 and don’t forget to pick up the latest issue of Star Wars: Poe Dameron out on June 8, which follows the plucky rebel pilot before the events of The Force Awakens.
