Marvel Comics has announced that it will continue to explore the time period between the Original Trilogy and Sequel Trilogy this September with the launch of the new limited series Star Wars: Han Solo – Hunt for the Falcon., which reunites the creative team of writer Rodney Barnes and artist Ramon Rosanas following their collaboration on Marvel’s Star Wars: Inquisitors.
“Han Solo – Hunt for the Falcon is a dream come true,” said Barnes. “Han, Leia, Chewbacca and Lando were my heroes when I was a kid. To write an adventure that includes that quartet (and more!) is truly an honor. One huge check off my bucket list!”
“Rodney is pulling all these characters who’ve had history with the Falcon and having them cross their deadly paths,” added editor Mark Paniccia. “It’s a very fun ride that captures the heart of who Han Solo is while throwing him into some ‘uncomfortable’ situations. And Ramon Rosanas is doing some of the best work of his career on this. This is a special project for him and the detail he brings to the ships and locations is magnificent.”

IN THE TIME BEFORE THE FORCE AWAKENS, WHERE IS THE MILLENNIUM FALCON?!
Less than satisfied with a settled life, Han Solo lands on the idea of reclaiming the Falcon and returning to a life of adventure. The problem is, he can’t find it. After enlisting a less than enthusiastic Chewbacca, the duo embarks upon a quest to reclaim the greatest ship in the galaxy. Standing in their way are a laundry list of rogues who have staked a claim to the Millennium Falcon as well, like the villainous scoundrel who stole the Falcon, Ducain.
Star Wars: Han Solo – Hunt for the Falcon #1 will go on sale in September 2025.
