Holonet Blast #109

Hello there one and all, and thanks for tuning in to another weekly roundup of news from a galaxy far, far away. As always, we’re happy to have you! This week’s news is meager in quantity, but epic in scale.

First: new Age of Resistance comics were officially announced this week and I cannot overstate how thrilled the folks here at Tosche Station are about them. Following the lead of the Age of Republic and Age of Rebellion miniseries, Age of Resistance will feature in-depth looks at some of our Star Wars favorites. Rose Tico, Kylo Ren, Snoke (I have questions!), and Rey are all to be featured in their own books. The Age of Resistance comics are written by Tom Taylor and are set to release this coming September. This is in addition to the previously announced comics that will feature Finn, Poe Dameron, Captain Phasma, and General Hux.

The rest of this week’s news is a celebration! Or, rather, it’s about a celebration– Star Wars Celebration, Anaheim that is. Tickets went on sale this week for Lucasfilm & ReedPop’s next big event, to be held August 27-30 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California. The Jedi Master VIP ticket tier sold out in a matter of moments, and adult 4-day passes weren’t far behind. Single-day Saturday tickets sold out just hours later. If you’re still hoping to join the celebration, never fear! Single-day tickets for Thursday, Friday, and Sunday are still available as of the writing of this post (kids tickets, too!) and Lyte will once again be the official reseller for the show.

That’s it for this week! As I mentioned: light on quantity, but the content is a doozy.

As always, send your Star Wars news tips to Tosche Station and send your Celebration Anaheim panel suggestions to @MandaTheGinger

MTFBWY!!!
