Droids are many things in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars: useful, annoying, cute, and frequently in danger. But they're very rarely scary. Star Wars: Dark Droiꦅds aims to change all that. In the new series, Luke Skywalker and chums find themselves pitted against a de🍨adly new threat with the power to control droids - and it's coming for both the Empire and the Rebellion.
Dark Droids is part of a wider crossover event that takes in this core comic, written by Charles Soule and drawn by Luke Ross, and the Dark Droids: D-Squad limited series. It also ties into Marvel's ongoing Star Wars, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Darth Vader, Doctor Aphra and Bounty Hunters series.
We've got an exclusive previ🎀ew of several unlettered pages from Star Wars: Dark Droids🐻 #2 in the gallery below, which give a hint at some of the gruesome goings on in the galaxy far, far away...
The first issue of Dark Droids revealed that this machine rampage was started when Lady Qi'ra (that's Emilia Clarke's character from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Solo: A Star Wars Story) activated an a💎ncient device𓃲 intended to disrupt the Sith's connection to the Force. Instead, it released a malevolent entity that is now taking over the many droids in the galaxy.
In the first issue, which published this week, we saw it begin to corrupt several Imperial droids who turned violently on the humans around them. Now it looks like C-3PO might ha𝔉ve been infected too...
You can꧒ see the issue's main cover by Leinil Francis Yu as well as variants (from left to right) by Rachael Stott and John Tyler Christopher below.
Marvel's official synopsis for the new issue reads, in oddly bullet-poinꦿted form:
• The horror continues as THE SCOURGE begins to execute its grand plan, orches💞trating its droid minꦿions across the galaxy.
• It learns more with every passing moment, grows st🌜ronger…and is selecting the next tar🐠gets on its path to total dominion over all mechanical intelligence!
• Standing in its way, only the warrior-pries💃t droid AJAX SIGMA and the sentient droids of the SECOND REVELATION.
Star Wars: Dark Droids #2 is published b𓄧y M๊arvel Comics on September 6.
