Madness Strikes Star Wars This July in the Dark Droids Crossover Event

The AI threat is real in Star Wars: Dark Droids this July.

Star Wars is known for many things – epic stories, powerful characters, and alien species. But it’s also well-known for a gamut of strange and delightful droids. Now, we’re going to see droids like never before in the 4-issue Dark Droids event, written by Marc Guggenheim with art by Salva Espin and David Messina.

Here’s what you can expect from the dramatic Dark Droids event:

Starting in July, STAR WARS: DARK DROIDS is an all-new Marvel Comics crossover event that kicks off when a new threat is unleashed throughout the galaxy, corrupting droids, cyborgs, and everything in-between! The saga will bring horror to the galaxy far, far away as droids of all allegiances and roles unite for a bold new purpose, causing chaos for the Rebellion and the Empire alike!

If that wasn’t exciting enough, there will also be a spinoff series called D-Squad. Not to mention a connected variant cover illustrated by Josemaria Casanovas. Be sure and check it out, along with the release date info below!

Josh Speer enjoys all sorts of things, but he grew up reading comic books. Stories of wonder and whimsy delight him, as do underdogs and anti-heroes. While admittedly a fan of many Marvel and DC characters (thwip thwip), of late he reads more independent comics. Big fan of Image, Dark Horse, IDW and lately even some Aftershock. Loves stories that are quirky, weird and which feature stunning artwork. Completely shocked that Marvel Netflix still exists on Disney+. Enjoys talking about comic books without getting lost in the minutiae, and focuses most on character relationships and development.
