Throughout the next month, special Women’s History Month Variant Covers will grace Marvel’s Star Wars comic titles.
New York, NY— February 8, 2024 — From Jedi Knights to Rebel leaders, the course of the Star Wars galaxy has been shaped by legendary women heroes! In honor of Women’s History Month, Marvel Comics will spotlight some of these iconic characters in new variant covers.
Featured on all of Marvel’s current Star Wars comic series hitting stands in March, the seven STAR WARS WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH VARIANT COVERS are drawn by the industry’s leading women artists and depict characters from Star Wars storytelling including films, television and streaming series, and comics.
Each brave and inspiring in their own unique way, here are the characters highlighted this year:
- Ahsoka Tano, former Jedi Knight who served as Anakin Skywalker’s fierce Padawan during the Clone Wars. Ahsoka’s heroic exploits after walking away from the Jedi Order have made her one of the franchise’s most beloved characters and last year, she starred in her own hit live-action series on Disney+ which will be adapted to comic book form this summer!
- Fennec Shand, feared assassin and elite mercenary whose deadly skills are a highlight of shows like The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett.
