Warning! This post contains a preview of Star Wars: Ewoks #1.
new Star wars series teases canonical fate Ewoks after Endor. While the primitive, bear-like natives of Endor played a decisive role in the defeat of the Empire by the Rebels in Return of the JediThe Galactic Civil War did not end on Endor, despite the destruction of the second Death Star and the defeat of the Sith Lords. Thus, new threats arise and the Ewoks now seem to be on their own.
After the Battle of Endor, a new Marvel’s preview will be released. Ewoks #1 Steve Orlando, Alvaro Lopez, Laura Braga reveals that parts of the remaining Empire still have a vested interest in the forest moon. This is due to a large cache of weapons hidden on the Moon, resulting in new groups of Imperials being sent to retrieve the massive cache of weapons in the ongoing battle against the Rebellion. Meanwhile, the Ewoks seem worried about what will happen next to their various tribes:
After learning that they are not alone in the galaxy, the Ewoks discuss how they should interact when and if they come into contact with future visitors from other worlds. However, this debate will become less of an issue when they learn that the Empire is returning.
The Rebels are gone, but new threats are coming to Endor
The Empire Returns
In canonical Star wars timeline, The Galactic Civil War did not end with the Rebel victory on Endor.. Instead, the war did not officially end until the Empire surrendered after the climactic Battle of Jakku almost a year later. Due to this, it is understandable that the Rebellion eventually abandoned Endor and the Ewoks as they still had a war to win and had finally gained a critical advantage after their recent triumph shook the Empire to its core.
Connected
Due to this, it is likely that the rebels did not even consider that the Ewoks might be in danger when they left.. After all, the forest moon had no known tactical or strategic value following the destruction of the shield generator protecting the second Death Star in orbit around Endor. Thus, the discovery of this massive weapons cache would be the real tipping point that would likely pit the Empire against the Ewoks alone.
The new Star Wars series is Wicket’s chance to prove himself
Become a real tribe leader
Declaring during a tribal meeting that he was looking for new ways to combine his voices and songs with others, the young Ewok Wicket (who first met Leia and helped her with this) Return of the Jedi) are quickly silenced in favor of the older warriors, who appear to be offering a more aggressive stance towards the idea of ​​meeting future outsiders. So, it’s clear that Wicket will likely get some evolution as a key character in this new series.. With any luck, Wicket will gain more confidence in his voice and ability to lead as Marvel’s leader. Ewoks continues.
