Star Wars returns to Dark Horse Comics in 2022

November 20, 2021 by Gary Collinson

Some seven years on from losing Star Wars to Marvel following Disney’s Lucasfilm acquisition, Dark Horse Comics has announced that it is returning to the galaxy far, far away in 2022, the publisher having secured the license for brand new all-ages Star Wars comic books and graphic novels currently held by IDW.

“Dark Horse has a rich history publishing Star Wars comics and graphic novels,” said Mike Richardson, Dark Horse Comics Founder and CEO. “Star Wars is near and dear to all of our hearts and I’ve been a fan since I saw the original film nineteen times during its original release. I am thrilled that Dark Horse will once again bring new stories to life from this incredible galaxy and I’m not exaggerating when I say we can’t wait to bring these new adventures to fans of every age.”

“All of us at Lucasfilm Publishing are thrilled to be working with Mike Richardson and everyone at Dark Horse on comics and original graphic novels set in a galaxy far, far away. There are unlimited storytelling possibilities for all ages comics, and we look forward to collaborating with Dark Horse—and with the best writers and artist in the industry—to bring those stories to readers and fans all over the world.”

Dark Horse first began publishing Star Wars comics in 1991, beginning with the classic Star Wars: Dark Empire series, which – along with Timothy Zahn’s Star Wars: Heir to the Empire novel – helped to reignite interest in the saga and launch the ‘Expanded Universe’, now known as Star Wars Legends.

While Dark Horse will take over the all-ages Star Wars comic book content beginning Spring 2022, the main in-canon series will remain at Marvel Comics.
