Doctor Aphra Returns In A New Ongoing Marvel Comics Series

Doctor Aphra is heading back to Marvel Comics with a brand-new, ongoing series: Star Wars: Doctor Aphra – Chaos Agent.

Written by Cherish Chen with art by Gabriel Guzman, the new series will be set in the post-Return of the Jedi time period. Introduced by Kieron Gillen and Salvador Larroca in Darth Vader, the morally murky archaeologist’s original adventures were set during the Original Trilogy. Now, she’ll get pardoned for her crimes and partnered with Luke Skywalker to work for the New Republic.

Doctor Aphra – Chaos Agent #1 hits stores on June 18, with covers by E.J. Su, Sara Pichelli and Karen S. Darboe. You can check them out, and the official synopsis, below.
