- Today on "The High Republic Show," we get prepped for San Diego Comic-Con,
uncover some minty fresh reveals, and finally find out the fate of Burryaga.
An all-new "High Republic Show" starts right now.
- For over a thousand generations,
the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice.
[dramatic music]
Hey, High Republic friends, it's me, your good pal Krystina Arielle.
It's been a minute since we last chatted, but the High Republic don't stop
and we have a lot to catch up on.
So who's ready for a wall-to-wall, info-packed mini-episode?
[children cheer] Oh, good. Me too.
Looking back to April, Star Wars Celebration rocked Europe.
I took the stage with the Luminous authors,
as well as James Waugh and Michael Siglain,
for the jam-packed High Republic panel.
There, we learned a little about what's coming
in Phase III: Trials of the Jedi.
George Mann will kick off the phase with "The Eye of Darkness."
Marvel's "Doctor Aphra" author Alyssa Wong is joining in on the High Republic fun
with a story in "Tales of Light and Life" and a team-up with Daniel José Older
that will kick off a trio of middle grade novels.
Tessa Gratton and Justina Ireland are back together again
for "Defy the Storm" to begin a trilogy of YA novels.
All those and so many other great announcements came out in the panel.
Seriously, go read about it all right now on StarWars.com/TheHighRepublic.
My "Star Wars" bestie Kristin Baver over on "This Week in Star Wars"
revealed the cover for the upcoming Marvel miniseries,
"Shadows of Starlight," with cover art by Phil Noto.
The four-issue series will give details on some of the events of the year
between the end of Phase I, AKA the fall of Starlight,
to the start of Phase III.
And as we can see from the cover,
the first issue will focus on the Jedi Council,
11 of them, because sadly,
Stellan Gios did not survive the fall of Starlight Beacon.
[whispering] Keep it together, Tina. Keep it together.
Cal Kestis and his adorable sidekick BD-1 continued their epic adventure
in "Star Wars Jedi: Survivor" on April 28th.
The duo go up against baddie Dagan Gera, a former Jedi from the High Republic,
who is fueled by an obsession to return to Tanalorr.
May the 4th brought the premiere of the adorable
"Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures."
Set in the High Republic era, the series is perfect
for the younglings in your life.
Starring the Jedi trio Kai Brightstar, Lys Solay, and Nubs,
who are joined by their pilot friend Nash Durango and her droid RJ-83,
the group go on adventures, learn important life lessons,
meet adorable creatures, and they snack on delicious treats.
Check it out right now streaming on Disney+
and airing on Disney Junior.
- [squeaking] Oopsie!
- [giggles]
- According to my handy-dandy calendar,
we're only weeks away from San Diego Comic-Con.
[glass shatters]
And for those of you who will be attending,
you're gonna want to add these to your to-do list.
Within the Lucasfilm Pavilion, the High Republic booth will feature
a Phase III photo op, a one-stop-shop
to pick up any High Republic books you might have missed,
and it's a great place to spot some of your favorite Luminous authors
during their signings.
In panel room 7AB on Friday at 1:00 p.m.,
the Lucasfilm Publishing panel will take place.
Not only will it feature High Republic authors Justina Ireland, Cavan Scott,
Charles Soule, and George Mann, but there's more authors
from across Lucasfilm publishing
with exciting reveals and surprises in store.
Speaking of reveals, it's time for some of our own!
Coming this November, Marvel will relaunch "The High Republic" comic
with author Cavan Scott and artists Ario Anindito and Mark Morales.
The series that will focus on my girl Jedi Knight Keeve Trennis
will get a cover reveal at San Diego Comic-Con
in room 7AB on Friday at 1:00 p.m.
Repeating one more time so you don't miss it.
Remember earlier in the episode when I mentioned
that George Mann will be kicking off Phase III of the High Republic
with "The Eye of Darkness"?
Well, get ready, because here is your first look at the cover
illustrated by Grant Griffin.
Baddie Marchion Ro is back in action resting upon his throne,
with Loden Greatstorm's lightsaber.
That's just rude, okay? It's rude.
Looks like the Eye of the Nihil has won the day!
You better hope we never cross paths, Ro.
And now is the time we have all been waiting for
ever since finishing the final pages of "The Fallen Star,"
the question that's been on everyone's mind:
the fate of Burryaga,
our sweet, sweet boy.
[somber piano music]
[sighs] I'm ready.
[sobbing hysterically] He's alive!
I'm okay. I'm okay.
He's alive, guys. Burry lives!
- Yahoo! [cheers and applause]
- To find out how he survived, check out "Tales of Light and Life,"
which I am excited to announce will be first to market at San Diego Comic-Con.
Another item to add to your SDCC to-do list
along with picking up a free "Burry Lives!" button.
What a great way to end the episode, if I do say so myself.
Burry lives.
All's right with the world.
Wait, has anybody heard from Torban "Buckets of Blood" Buck?
Buckets?
[sighs] Well, what do you do?
From one worry to another.
I hope this mystery doesn't take too long to find out
and is a similarly happy conclusion.
Well, that's our show. For even more High Republic fun,
