🗞️ Star Wars News
New Releases
No better way to kick us off than with an appearance of the homie, himself: Charles Soule, as the 7th volume of the Star Wars 2020 comic series covers the Dark Droids storyline that he authored!
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. Until then, the link to the article will be provided.
And keeping with the Dark Droids trend, we have the D-Squad miniseries receiving its trade paperback, bringing all four issues into one comic book. Personally, I think D-squad is one of the most underrated Clone Wars arcs! Just makes me wonder how the homie WAC is doing out there, lol!
A brand new High Republic young adult novel released. I must say, that is one unique cover! Before noticing it on its article, I thought it looked like an oil painting, and, evidently, it is, and it took the artist 150 hrs! I can see why; most impressive!
Starting to be a nice addition to everyone's Wednesdays, fifth episode of the Bad Batch released, and @Bonzane10 hosting our official discussion for it.
If you were to tell me that we would have not one, but two appearances of Galactic Legend: Charles Soule, I don't think I would believe you, and yet here we are! Issue #44 is out and about continuing Lando's side of things. Looks like he's seen brighter days.
Next, issue number four of the High Republic released.
Well you certainly don't see this kind of material in every MMC. Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new Star Wars card game called Spark of Rebellion to round off our new releases.

📣 Announcements
Right on into announcements we venture with our Fandom representative, @Spongebob456 keeping us up to date on Fandom news.
We have a new series dubbed The Sunday Editorial that helps everyone keep in touch with the latest from the Senate Hall, whether that be a vote that is happening or an article headed for deletion! Our friendly admin, @NBDani wrote the first edition that you can read all about here:
🔶 Status Update
@Ajjviolin96 has our weekly article status update which showcases the articles brought up to status as well as the responsible editor! My pick this time is a bit of a curve ball, but I had to go with Cosinga Palpatine's grandfather (mostly because Cosinga rhymes with Bazinga).
Other Business
In other business, the fabled meme wars are still very much on-going with @Padawan Jedi 66 receiving first place treatment!
☀️ Community Projects
Guess That Article is, as of now, in dire straits as @Cyborg Commando is at the helm! Band, my friends, band together, I say! Tis' the only way to triumph in these trying times!

Whew-wee! That was a bit of a doosy wasn't it? That was quite a swath of new releases, wasn't it? Also, I have been noticing that the Announcement category has been seeing a bit more activity recently. We have been having one- even two an edition for these past couple of weeks. Can only mean we're improving with communication, messa tinks! I have no idea if you remember, but, when I began writing these MMCs with some consistency, I noted in one that they were shorter than they used to be, and now, it seems like we've been enjoying a healthy length now days, which I find pretty interesting. For one thing, status updates and Guess That Article have both made a return which is nice to see. Anyways, just an observation.
Thank you all for reading, mis compadres! Have a good week, alright?
May Peace and the Force Be With You
