List of Star Wars comic books


This is a list of Star Wars comics, comic books set in the fictional Star Wars universe. Lucasfilm's now-corporate sibling Marvel Comics, which published Star Wars comics from 1977 to 1986, are once again publishing Star Wars titles that started in 2015. Dark Horse Comics owned the license to publish Star Wars comics from Lucasfilm exclusively from 1991 to 2014. Comics published prior to 2015 have been rebranded as non-canon with the designation Legends.

This literature-related list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.

BBY stands for years before the Battle of Yavin, which occurred during the original Star Wars film.[lower-alpha 1] ABY stands for years after the Battle of Yavin.

Animated webcomics

In September 2015, multinational food and beverage company Nestlé released two animated webcomics as part of a licensed Star Wars-themed promotional campaign for The Force Awakens. Adapted from the novels The Weapon of a Jedi: A Luke Skywalker Adventure by Jason Fry and Smuggler's Run: A Han Solo & Chewbacca Adventure by Greg Rucka, the two animated comics were originally offered exclusively on the now-defunct Nestlé Comics website by typing a digital code featured on every box of Nestlé cereals.
