Good morning everyone, and welcome to Monday Morning Coffee, Wookieepedia's weekly news source! We have a fair bit to cover this week, so let's dive on into the news!

STAR WARS NEWS
New Releases
These are the newest releases of Star Wars media from the last week. Discussion threads will be linked below. Remember, if there is no thread, feel free to create one and link it in the replies of this post!
Firstly, we got a very cool reference book by Troy Alders about an art contest held in 2014 for the premiere of Star Wars Rebels.
Next, we got a children's book called Grogu's Journey, a retelling of The Mandalorian season 2 from Grogu's point-of-view. It comes with sound buttons, which seem interesting, but I see nothing about stickers, so I'll be skipping this one.
The finale of Crimson Reign is here! Well, the main run at least. Most of the series will continue with their own arcs that loosely tie into the run, but the core story written by Charles Soule is wrapped up. Stay tuned for the finale in October! @ImustbeFrank made the official thread for the comic.
Finally, the finale of the miniseries Obi-Wan Kenobi released on Disney+ on Wednesday. It generated a lot of excitement, so @Lost Jagger quickly made the official thread for discussion. If you're just looking for how everyone rated the episode, @Master Coleman Fisto set up a non-spoiler poll with stars to rate it.
From the Feed
These threads were written this week to cover Star Wars news. They can be found in the Star Wars News category.
@Jedi Sarith LeKit brought something we collectively overlooked: the trailer for the latest LEGO Star Wars collaboration. LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation will release on Disney+ in August and will feature a song written by Weird Al. Y'all best believe I'm gonna check that out!
Then, @IronStain98 shared some upcoming comic covers and speculation about the contents inside.

At the moment, nobody is signed up for next week's edition, so I'll volunteer my services yet again. Next Monday is July 4, or Independence Day in the States, so it'll probably be an early release, like this one. See y'all then, and MTFBWY!
