Sequel Trilogy fans and Kyo Ren and Hux shippers, Hyperspace Stories #8 is your jam. Valance fans, Prequel Trilogy lovers and those who dig Marvel's 77-86 run of Star Wars comics, Bounty Hunters #37 delivers everything that you need in a spurious blend of regret, hope, callbacks to Legends and emotional heft. The Mandalorian Season 2 #3 is faithful adaptation of the episode on which it's based, and hammers home Mando's unfailing politeness and utter gullibility.
