Papercutz's The Mandalorian and Grogu: Danger in the Dark #1 debuts today as the Mad Cave Studios imprint launches the first of what's likely to be several Star Wars comics and graphic novels aimed at younger readers (and readers who are young at heart). We'll have a review next week after we pick up our copy of the one-shot at the local comic shop. Otherwise, this week should prove quite informative as to the state of play for Star Wars Comics, with SDCC starting on July 23 and Lucasfilm Publishing panels set for Friday, including one for Mad Cave Studios, but not one for Dark Horse Comics.
