Now that The Acolyte Season One is finished, Star Wars will continue to explore the High Republic era through various comics and novels.
Kelnacca, one of the Jedi Masters in the TV show and one of the few Wookiee Jedi in Star Wars, is set to appear again in various comics related to the High Republic and in a one-shot comic book focusing solely on his own story before the events of The Acolyte.
Kelnacca, known as the gentle-natured fluffy Wookiee Jedi in The Acolyte, is the titular character in Marvel’s one-shot comic book, which will be published on September 4, 2024.
It is written by Cavan Scott and illustrated by Marika Cresta, who is also the writer and illustrator for the upcoming canon comic book Star Wars: The High Republic—Fear of the Jedi.
These comics are part of Marvel Comics’s High Republic publishing initiative, including various books and novels focusing on the High Republic era.
Along with several comics, Star Wars will also release novels exploring more of the High Republic era, such as The Acolyte: Way Seeker, which explores the story of Vernestra Rwoh before the events of The Acolyte TV show.
The High Republic publishing initiative has new content and literature scheduled for release in 2025. In the meantime, avid Star Wars fans can look forward to the release of the video game Star Wars: Outlast this August 30. Star Wars: Outlaws will be available on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
In other Star Wars news, Aspyr’s most-awaited remaster of the critically acclaimed Star Wars: Bounty Hunter will be available on August 1, 2024.
It would seem that Star Wars will have new content released almost every month for the rest of 2024, including the premiere of the TV show The Skeleton Crew this Christmas season. Star Wars fans are in for a treat for the rest of the year.
