Marvel makes Star Wars history with the first comic book starring the galaxy’s coolest con man turned rebel hero.
This week Star Wars: Lando #1 arrives. The new limited series is by writer Charles Soule (Uncanny Inhumans) and acclaimed artist Alex Maleev (Daredevil).
The writer behind the Death of Wolverine announced a challenge for himself and all Star Wars fans with a revealing story of Lando’s past.
“Is Lando Calrissian the coolest character in all of Star Wars? Depends on who you ask, probably. But if you ask me, the answer is yes, and I plan to prove it with this story,” writer Soule told StarWars.com.
Soule reveals that Lando and Lobot plot to steal one of the galaxy’s most valuable ships.
“Lando Calrissian was just a man trying to make his way through an uncaring universe determined not to recognize that he was undeniably the coolest man in in the galaxy. But Lando’s got a plan to change all that… and it starts with the deal of a lifetime.”
Here’s a look at Alex Maleev’s art showing the smooth con man having the tables turned on him:
