A long time ago, in a comic book rack far, far away…
During the years between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, Marvel Comics kept the Star Wars magic alive—delivering bold new stories, expanding the mythology, and taking our favorite heroes and villains on unforgettable adventures.
Now, join The Irredeemable Shag, and a rotating crew of guest rebels, as we journey back to this incredible era! We begin with the comic adaptation of The Empire Strikes Back and continue through the thrilling tales leading up to Return of the Jedi!
If you’re a seasoned Star Wars veteran who knows your Shira Brie from your Hoojibs–or a brave explorer venturing into these comics for the first time—this is your hyperspace lane to classic Star Wars adventure!
Join us for Marvel Star Wars: From Empire to Jedi!
Every other month—beginning in June 2025!

I’m excited for this one! Some of the best stories from Marvel’s original run of Star Wars came from this era. Awesome stories and great art. This coming from a die hard Han Solo fan who usually ignores anything that doesn’t feature the galaxy’s most famous scoundrel!
If you happen to need a guest for any episode, I’m happy to volunteer
Bring on the bunny!
Sadly, Jaxxon was pre-Empire when no one had any idea what was going on with this Star Wars thing!
Can’t wait for this one!
