Good morning, my fellow Wookieepedians and welcome back to Monday Morning Coffee where we will be rounding up Star Wars news for this first week in February! If you will come inside, get yourself a nice glass of Wookiee refreshment and have a seat at our table, we will begin!

🗞️ Star Wars News
New Releases
Opening us, the first volume of the Doctor Aphra Omnibus released, compiling Aphra's adventures from her 2015 appearances to content into 2020!
As always, if a new piece of media is released, and you would like to discuss it with the community, you are more than welcome to make the official discussion post for it!
Secondly, The Princess and the Scoundrel was reprinted in paperback, giving fans an alternative rendition for those that still want to read the novel, but are perhaps lacking the currency to purchase it.
Exciting many on Wednesday, the sixth episode of the Bad Batch titled: Tribe was released! Along with it, @Swatteam123 posted the official discussion and @ArtooD2 made the poll for ratings!
Lastly, the first issue of Sanna Starros's comic miniseries came out. Admittedly, I haven't read much of the Aphra storyline, so I'm surprised to see Sanna getting her own story! I guess if she is prominent enough to be added to GoH, she is worthy of a comic series!
