DARK HORSE COMICS FIRST LOOKS
FIRST LOOK: BLADE OF THE IMMORTAL #127
Blade of the Immortal #127 will arrive in stores on July 11 from Dark Horse Comics. The issue is by Hiroaki Samura.
Here's how Dark Horse describes the issue:
"In this 'Life in Death' one-shot issue, we catch up with Giichi and Hyakurin, the two former Mugai-ryü warriors who have been somewhat on the sidelines as Rin hunts for the missing Manji. Hyakurin is still recovering from the brutal events chronicled in the 'Beasts' story arc, and Giichi-now a despondent drunk after losing his son-has some objections when she tries to solve a lingering problem on her own. Doc Burando reaches another milestone in his experiments. Although he's ridiculed by the doctors of Edo, Burando still believes that his bloody work is for the good of the country. Features a full-color Manji pinup by artist Farel Dalrymple!"
Blade of the Immortal #127 will be 32 black-and-white pages and will cost $2.99.

FIRST LOOK: STAR WARS: REBELLION #8
Star Wars: Rebellion #8 will arrive in stores on July 11 from Dark Horse Comics. The issue is written by Rob Williams, with art by Michel Lacombe and a cover by Ryan Sook.
Here's how Dark Horse describes the issue:
"A secret of tremendous importance to the Empire lies hidden on the planet Ahakista, and when a local civil war threatens it, Darth Vader will take its protection into his own hands! A ragtag team of Rebel agents have discovered the Empire's secret on Ahakista thanks to an Imperial officer with an agenda of her own. Yet if they are to do anything about it, they'll need the help of the locals, who, embroiled in a civil war, are none too eager to take the Empire head on. Meanwhile, Darth Vader grows tired of this backwater planet distracting him from more pressing matters. For his adversaries this means one thing-death at the hands of the Sith Lord!"
Star Wars: Rebellion #8 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.99.
