MOD Literature Forum Reference: Rules, Index, Release Dates & weekly Marvel Comics shipping updates

thats true, most of my comments are directed to what i wish was not canon. TFU

 

Eddie,

According to the Dark Horse website Darth Vader and the Ninth Assassin HC collection will now be out on November 20. Also Dark Times Volume 7: A Spark Remains has been pushed to April 23.

 

Thanks! Although there's not much news regarding upcoming Del Rey hardcovers (Sword of the Jedi anyone?), it is time for another update for the main list!

 

Here's a schedule of upcoming books, not sure how accurate it is

And here's another list...

Anyway, I will get the new list out to 2ndQuest this weekend!

 

Well, actually not that weekend, but now it;s away!!!!

 

Why aren't there any new novels announced past March 2014, ie: release dates / month?

 

That's because, as our old green friend says "Uncertain the future is".

I guess it all depends which road Disney will take, regarding the upcoming movies and the timeline for the books...

 

Dont spoil it for me because I am about halfway through the Agent of the Empire Vol.2 TPB. And I saw that there was no mention of a third up there in the near future. if this is due to how the story is going, then fine, but my guess is that this comic is gonna get left out there in limbo with no end type thing??

 

Yep it is "on hold" just like Invasion.

 

At least with Invasion we kinda know how things end. I don't really see Marvel picking up any of these lose ends, not that I thought they would, well maybe I wishfully thought they may....

 

The thought of Marvel eventually relaunching/continuing successfull DH storylines/titles crossed my mind as well. I would consider that to be very cool!!!

And in the UK, a new children's comic was released today, simply called Star Wars Comic # 1. It features the first of a series of new short comics, this one called "War on the Jundland Wastes"... Check out an image at my FB page:

I wonder if Marvel will allow these short comics to continue/reprinted by a US non-Marvel company (PYR books):

Looks like that new comic might be a Clone Wars Comic Magazine replacement. I subscribe and I got it in the post today.

 

It is... Small print has this as Volume 7, with latest incarnation of CW being Volume 6...

 

I remember seeing Killik Harvest - a story starring Boba Fett and the Killiks post FOTJ - being released in April. Now it's gone. Is it in limbo like SOTJ?

 

LOL...You might want to look at the date...

Any idea if the Jaina/Sword of the Jedi is probably a cancellation or is it more up in the air as to when it really gets written?
Same with the Luke Skywalker book?

I read only new HC and new PB (no comics etc)

 

No word whatsoever... I guess we'll just have to wait and see (although my personal opinion is that it has probably been cancelled...)

 

Thanx for the heads up.

Just not a comic-fan (nothing personal)

SO I stick to Hardcover novel releases and and straight to paperback such as the med-star du-ology which I liked a lot.

Some HB's are stinkers Like the very first one "Truce at Bakura"…………….get me a drink.

My movie for the day you should all see the 3 colors Trilogy Film "Blue"-starring Juliette Binoche who was robbed of best actress/well, anyone 30 or older who has lost it all/or an awful lot unexpectedly

will relate so strongly with this film. Watch it alone, in the quiet and with nothing else on your mind.

Then listen to the Commentary and watch again.

Zack Giallongo revealed to us that he will be writing more Star Wars but we might not see it for a while. #SWEU

 

I used to joke with my wife that I needed to quite my job so I could catch up on my Star Wars reading. I feel like the only bright side to this uncertainty is that I may finally do that. Just hope things get going again, and I don't run out.

 

As a faithful EU reader since I first saw Heir to the Empire, at Waldenbooks when it released, this lack of new novel material is kind of pissing me off. The delays and lack of announcements makes me fear the worst that anything post-ROTJ is going to get the axe in the EU and only new stuff in the Disney timeline will make it out.

I just have this feeling that Crucible was the last of it we will see.
