MARVEL ADAPTS ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY

Marvel Comics has announced an April launch for its adaptation of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, written by Jody Houser with art by Emilio Laiso.

Here's how Marvel describes the story:

"All appears lost in the fight against the tyrannical Galactic Empire. The Rebellion has discovered the existence of the Empire's ultimate super-weapon. The Death Star. With the power to wipe planets from existence, the Death Star's existence spells doom for those seeking freedom. All hope now lies in the hands of new heroes Jyn Erso and Cassian Andor. Their last ditch gambit to steal the Death Star plans are all that stands in the Empire's way!"

The six-issue story will feature material not seen on the big screen.

"[Director] Gareth Edwards and Lucasfilm had a number of ideas for moments that didn’t fit in the film that I’m working with," Houser said. "There are also some amazing moments in the novelization I want to incorporate. So it's really a mix of material from existing versions of the story, as well as new scenes."

The covers to the first issue shown here are by Phil Noto and John Tyler Christopher.



ELEANOR & THE EGRET AT AFTERSHOCK

AfterShock Comics has announced an April 5 launch for Eleanor & The Egret, a new series from writer John Layman and artist Sam Kieth.

Here's how the book is described:

"A slightly surreal tale of an art thief and her sidekick, a talking egret who gets just a bit bigger after each successful caper, as they embark on a escalating series of daring thefts of world-famous paintings, and dodge pursuers in an increasingly weirdly dangerous game of cat-and-mouse."

"As far as I'm concerned, Mike Marts is the very best editor in comics, and a great guy too, so I'm always looking for opportunities to work with him," Layman said. "When he landed at AfterShock I knew very quickly it would be a company that would produce excellent comics -- and they are! --so I jumped at the chance to work with them. I'm proud to be part of the AfterShock family, and grateful they are getting behind Sam and I for this very unique and off-kilter book.

"I would describe Eleanor & the Egret as a fable, and a surrealist romance, but it's probably more easily described as something not easily describable. It's a melding of two unique voices to comics. It's also just an excuse for me to give Sam cool stuff to draw, and, in that, he's exceeding all expectations -- some of the pages he's turning in are absolutely breathtaking."

Shown are the covers to #1 by Kieth and Elizabeth Torque.
