A rebel pilot and a rogue archaeologist delve side-by-side into the galaxy's darkest shadows when Luke Skywalker reluctantly joins forces with Doctor Aphra! But will Luke find what he's looking for in the heart of the infamous Screaming Citadel? Can he trust Aphra? Or will they both wind up victims of the Citadel's queen? Plus: Luke finally gets the alone time he's been after with Princess Leia -- unfortunately, it comes while they're stranded on a desert island! Meanwhile, Han and Chewie go back to smuggling...for a Hutt?! But the Empire has held C-3PO captive for far too long -- and now his faithful friend, R2-D2, is riding to the rescue! And the Death Star left Jedha in ruins when it annihilated the Holy City. Now, as Queen Trios' forces move in to strip what's left, the rebels struggle to preserve the planet for its survivors!

After winning a Marvel Comics talent search contest in 2001, Aaron quickly became one of Marvel’s preeminent writers, crafting character-defining runs on such titles as GHOST RIDER, WOLVERINE, PUNISHER and DOCTOR STRANGE. His landmark seven year run on THOR featured the headline-grabbing adventures of Jane Foster as the Mighty Thor, and his 2015 STAR WARS series became the best-selling American comic book in more than 20 years. Aaron’s critically acclaimed creator-owned work includes the Eisner and Harvey Award-winning SOUTHERN BASTARDS from Image Comics and the New York Times best-selling SCALPED from Vertigo Comics, plus the recently launched ONCE UPON A TIME AT THE END OF THE WORLD from BOOM!
