Star Wars fans have had the chance to see some of the franchise's greatest unseen moments unfold in the comics, but this year, a long-awaited battle is further revealed. Most recently, Star Wars: Battle of Jakku - Insurgency Rising #1 brought readers to the battle between heroes and the New Order. Now, a continuation, Last Stand, will drive those fights into overdrive.
In Star Wars: The Force Awakens, viewers met Rey on Jakku, a planet where the future hero scavenged the war-torn land in search of technology left in the battle's wake.

Star Wars: The Battle of Jakku - The Last Stand #1 by Alex Segura, Leonard Kirk, and Jethro Morales features the return of Han Solo, further adventures of Lando Calrissian, and, of course, the battle against evil in the galaxy.

Rod Reis' variant features Luke, dressed in black, ready for action. Additionally, there will be a 1:25 variant from Mike Hawthorne, which hasn't yet been revealed.
