The Last 'Clone Wars' Comics

After five seasons, Star Wars: The Clone Wars ended abruptly last year with the final episode left in limbo. Lucasfilm later announced that the last season would be released in October on Blu-ray and DVD, with bonus content that would include what had been in the works for season six. However, that meant that story arcs that never made it to full production would remain unresolved - including the subject of the series: what happened to Darth Maul.

Dark Horse recently announced that it will release a four-issue miniseries as a final chapter to Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir will debut in May!

According to series writer Jeremy Barlow, the story arc is not a "series finale." "The Maul comic is very cool, but it wasn't the series finale," and from a tweet from Pablo Hidalgo - Lucasfilm Sotrygroup Member - "It was a 4-part arc that fell beyond what was already in production."

*This is the final year for Dark Horse's comic license for Star Wars.
