Comics With Kenobi #107 -- Salt in the Wound

It's a pair of endings as we come to the end of Star Wars: Han Solo -- Imperial Cadet, along with the last installment in the Star Wars: Age of Republic titles, and neither did so meekly, but rather with deft writing, dynamic illustrations and lingering thoughts.

The ending of Han Solo -- Imperial Cadet #5 sets the stage for a pair of new characters, whose stories we think will come back around sooner than later, while in Age of Republic -- General Grievous, a notorious villain is given a better foundation that will impact future viewings of Revenge of the Sith for years to come.

In news, we weigh in on the facsimile edition of Star Wars #50 (Vol. 1), as well as the impending start to the Greg Pak-written Star Wars: Age of Rebellion one shots and look ahead to the 40th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back and what it may portend for Marvel and IDW Star Wars comics.

This week's Star Wars comics, out March 20, include:

• Solo: A Star Wars Story Adaptation #6
• Star Wars #63
• Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The Old Republic Vol. 3 (collecting Knights of the Old Republic 38-50, Knights of the Old Republic -- War 1-5 and parts of Star Wars Tales #24)
