The first two episodes of the hotly-anticipated new Star Wars show, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Acolyte, are out now on Disney Plus. If you've already binged the eps then you're likely intrigued by Kelnacca - the Wookiee Jedi Master who makes his debut in the second episode, as played by Joonas Suotamo (who also donned the fur to play Chewbacca in Star Wars movies 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last Jedi, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Rise of Skywalker, and Solo).
While the show takes place in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:the High Republic era - a setting that has a pretty well-established history in comics and books - the character was created specifically for the TV show. Still, Kelnacca will be making the move to comics later this y𒉰ear in Star Wars: The Acolyte - Kelnacca #1, a new one-shot by long-time High Republic scribe Cavan Scott and drawn by Marika Cresta.
Here's a trio of covers for the first issue by (from left to right) Phil Noto, Björn Barends🃏, and Takashi Okazaki.
"It's been so exciting to draw a line from The Acolyte back to The High Republic era we've been building in comics, books, audio and animation," Scott told . "Kelnacca is the perfect character to bridge the gap between the time of Leslye Headland's spectacular series to the age of Starlight Beacon, the threat of Marchion Ro, and the marauding Nihil. In this comic, we will learn more about one of the most intriguing asp🐬ects of Kelnacca's design: the meaning behind those mysterious tattoos. Along the way we’ll see the stru🌳ggle of a Padawan and a master who is stoic, wise, and, ultimately, a true practitioner of Light and Life."
Star Wars: The Acolyte - Kelnacca #1 is published b꧙y Marvel Comics on September 4.
