Bravestarr's Tex Hex makes his Star Wars Saga debut, while Mace Windu gets a lesson in humility -- or does he? -- in the Marvel-published Star Wars comics that were released Dec. 27. Were they worth the time and money? Listen as Jeff and Matt discuss each issue' pros and cons, as well as news that A Star Wars Comic will begin is second year on Jan. 25 with issue #13. The comics we read this week i...

Crooks, cons, mercs, ne'er do wells and a loving tribute to Carrie Fisher on the first anniversary of her untimely passing. It's all that, plus details about Star Wars: Rebels' Hera Syndulla's upcoming appearances in IDW Publishing's Star Wars: Forces of Destiny mini series and March's Doctor Aphra #18, as well as the Loot Crate-only edition of Star Wars Adventures' Destroyer Down 60-page comic bo...

This week's episode brings us news about the upcoming The Last Jedi: Storms of Crait one shot out Dec. 27, some decidedly nonspoilery talk about Star Wars: The Last Jedi film as well as conversation about the preceding week's Star Wars comics from Marvel and Jim Mello and Alex Ray's first-ever annual for A Star Wars Comic. Comics reviewed this week include: _ Star Wars #40 _ Darth Vader #9 _ A Sta...

It’s an extra-special special episode as we sit down with Alex Ray and Jim Mello, co-creators of the wildly popular and strikingly imaginative A Star Wars Comic as we mark the completion of a year’s worth of stories and tales from a galaxy far, far away in our respective head canon. They’ve taken us — and you — from one end of the Star Wars galaxy to another, introducing new characters alongside w...

Plenty to be thankful for when it came to Marvel's November slate of Star Wars comics, including a pair of double-dips for the Star Wars and Darth Vader series. Reading Poe Dameron gave us all kinds of feels, especially if you harbor affection for not just Leia Organa, but Padme Amidala. Meanwhile, Alex Ray and Jim Mello struck gold with their latest issue of A Star Wars Comic where a Gonk droid s...

It’s another episode of our youngling — and not so youngling — focused Young Padawans Edition. Matt Moore, Jeff McGee and Amy Wishman Nalan are joined by Emily, Jerry and Micah to discuss IDW Publishing’s Star Wars Adventures #3, featuring stories by Landry Q. Walker, Alan Tudyk and Shannon Denton, with art by Eric Jones, Arianna Florean, letters by Tom B. Long and Christa Miesner and colors by Mo...

Views, news and reviews as Jeff McGee and Matt Moore tackle October’s prodigious output of Star Wars comics from Marvel Entertainment. Plenty of hits, some misses, but definitely a full complement far-reaching stories that continue to add to the complex layers of characters we’ve been following for years, if not decades, along with some careful consideration about events between Revenge of the Sit...

You wondered, aloud even: "Where's the discussion about IDW Publishing's Star Wars Adventures?" It's right here! We were intrigued when IDW, in announcing the new series earlier this year, noted that its stories were aimed at younglings and younglings at heart. After two issues, it's obvious there's no better way to explain the delightfully scripted and superbly illustrated stories. In the spirit...

It's autumn up here in our hemisphere. While leaves are falling, and the countdown clock is flipping closer and closer to Star Wars: The Last Jedi, we're slating our Star Wars thirst with a bevy of Star Wars comics from Marvel and IDW Publishing, as well as a couple of young upstarts from down in central Florida, too. September's comics ran the gamut from Prequel Trilogy-era events in the Clone Wa...

The summer has wound done, but the Star Wars comics show no sign of abating. August? It reached a new level, with 10 titles out last month. This episode has lots of conversation and constructive criticism, along with news you can use, including details about Si Spurrier joining the writing team with Kieron Gillen for Doctor Aphra, as well as Jason Aaron's dissection of his long run on Marvel's fla...

With July done, it's time to revisit the month's bounty of Star Wars comics from Marvel and A Star Wars Comic. We suggest you get a milkshake to savor while you listen. (#MakeMineMilkshake) There's more detail about the Thrawn mini series announced at San Diego Comic-Con, which debuts in February in this episode. Finally, Jeff McGee and Matt Moore discuss the upcoming change in writers on Marvel's...

Gather up your java, tea and more and pull those Star Wars comics out of the bags as we dive into June's issues from Marvel. Co-hosts Matt Moore and Jeff McGee have found much to discuss in regard to the conclusion of The Screaming Citadel, the ongoing adventures of Poe Dameron as well as the latest installment of A Star Wars Comics. There's also news about Star Wars Adventures at San Diego Comic-...

Sit down, pour a cup of joe and relax. Be at one with the Force as we discuss all the comics from May -- and we mean all of them. Apologies for the length of this show -- it's more than two-and-a-half hours -- but there was a great deal to discuss about the events of (The) Screaming Citadel crossover that's gone through three of its five chapters in its namesake one-shot, Star Wars No. 31 and issu...

April proved a pivotal month for Star Wars comics. From the first issue of Marvel's Rogue One adaptation, which provided some context and details not seen in the film, to the conclusion of story arcs in Star Wars 30 and Star Wars: Doctor Aphra 6, along with the passing of a beloved member of the Resistance's Black Squadron in Star Wars: Poe Dameron 13, there was plenty of pathos and high adventure...

March came in like a lion but didn't end like a lamb, at least not in the pages of Marvel's Star Wars comics, that's for certain. Join us we take a deep dive into the latest issues of Star Wars: Darth Maul #2, Star Wars: Poe Dameron #12 and Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #5. We're also looking ahead to Star Wars Celebration in Orlando, too, with details about the Coffee With Kenobi Podcast meet-up, panel...

February was a light month for StarWars yet remained a critical moment for the entire line, with stories in Star Wars: Poe Dameron 11, Star Wars: Doctor Aphra 4 and Star Wars #29 holding true to ongoing storylines that keep pace with expanding the Saga's character development and exploration of events before the events of the prequel trilogies and the original trilogies, along with ahead of events...

We're two years in and then some in this grand experiment of Marvel's Star Wars comics. We have to admit, it's been a heck of a run. In this episode, we're talking the releases from January and the first week of February. We interview with comic creators Alex Ray and Jim Mello. The artist and writer from Florida created A Star Wars Comic, a monthly fan-made comic that takes readers -- in just six...

For our last episode of 2016 -- and the first of 2017 -- we dive deep into the four Marvel Star Wars comics that made December so stirring. They featured tales of adventure, intrigue, daring and, yes, heroism in all its forms, subtle and small. We start off with Star Wars: Poe Dameron #9, and are immediately drawn into the role that C-3PO plays. Is he, in fact, a super stealthy agent of espionage?...

Oh my. So much Star Wars comics from November in this episode. So much we even had to include an issue from December, too, to be sure we got them all. How many? Six. Just like the original trilogy plus the prequel trilogy. But it's worth every audio minute and every single panel on every single page to hear Jeff McGee and Matt Moore get a bit emotional over the conclusion of the deftly written Sta...

It's finally here. It took three recording sessions, six World Series games (Spoilers: CUBS WIN!), two trans-Atlantic crossings, one move and MULTIPLE cups of coffee, but episode 24 is ready for your listening pleasure. We've got a special guest, too, a certain Coffee With Kenobi co-founder by the name of Dan Zehr who joins us to discuss the riveting concluding issue of Darth Vader #25, along with...

After a technical snafu delayed Jeff McGee and Matt Moore, the daring duo have roared back into the Dragon Run to give it another go and what a go it was, what with the latest issues of Star Wars, Star Wars: Poe Dameron and Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Besides comics, we break down the latest news out of the just-concluded New York Comic Con. There's also some detail about December's first two is...

Despite technology's best effort to thwart them, Jeff McGee and Matt Moore are back for another issue, diving deep into Marvel's Star Wars comics from September, including Star Wars #22, The Force Awakens #3, Han Solo #3, Poe Dameron #5 and Darth Vader #24. There's some fuzzy sound during the episode -- The First Order tried to jam our broadcast, no doubt -- but it's worth getting through it, give...

Find out our thoughts and weigh in with your own as we make the comics equivalent of the Kessel Run through Star Wars #21, Poe Dameron #4, Han Solo #2, The Force Awakens #2 and Darth Vader #23. That's not all, either. We're bringing you up to speed on the latest Marvel Star Wars comics news, too, including what's going on with a third monthly series, what was announced at Star Wars Celebration Eur...

We're really flying Solo this episode. Seriously. No lie. Why? Because the first issue of Star Wars: Han Solo came out and we read it. Know what else we read? Everything. If it was a Marvel Star Wars comic and it came out in June, Matt Moore and Jeff McGee read it. It's true. All of it. Know what else is true? Jeff and our special guest, Tom Akel, head of content at LINE Corp., apparently went to...

We're flying solo for this month's issue. Wait. No, we're not! While Jeff McGee and Matt Moore had expected to have the first issue of Han Solo to discuss, its release was pushed back to later this month. Not to worry, there's plenty to discuss in regard to events in Star Wars #19, Darth Vader #20 and the fifth -- and final -- issue of Obi-wan and Anakin #5 to keep us occupied and in a debating mo...
