>For the very first time, the worlds of Star Wars and Marvel will collide with an official crossover event.

>Titled Star Wars/Marvel: Hope Assembles, the five-part limited comic book series will launch in January 2027, Entertainment Weekly can exclusively reveal.

>Kevin Smith, the actor/director who wrote major runs of Daredevil, Batman, and Green Arrow, writes the new story. David Marquez of Uncanny X-Men and Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man is the artist behind the comic, as seen in EW’s exclusive first look at the cover design.

>“Back in the early ‘80s, I had a subscription to Marvel’s Star Wars comics. And as fun as it was to follow the continuing adventures of Luke, Leia, and Han, I always wished that Spider-Man or Doctor Doom could cross over into their cinematic saga,” Smith says in a prepared statement to EW. “So when the opportunity arose to actually tell that story, nobody had to Force my hand! I’m ecstatic to be writing Hope Assembles for the 50th anniversary of Star Wars! Many thanks to Marvel Comics and Lucasfilm for trusting me to fly the Falcon and the Quinjet!”

It's kinda odd that the Star Wars characters on the cover are Luke, Biggs and Wedge.
I like those characters, but it's a strange choice for the major Crossover

Presumably Star Wars is part of the Ideaverse, the pocket realm containing public domain characters that contradict their canonical counterparts (like how Sherlock Holmes is canonically one of Mystique's personas despite there being depictions of Holmes as a person in his own right). This would mean that the "Galaxy far far Away" does exist but only exists as it does in the movies within the Ideaverse, with the possibility that it does have a "real" counterpart in 616 but isn't necessarily the same as in the movies.

Does that make sense?

I would read it if it was in continuity with the old Marvel Star Wars comics.
>>
>>154989992
This was supposed to be written by Millar. I'm not sure Kevin Smith is a better choice.

>This would mean that the "Galaxy far far Away" does exist but only exists as it does in the movies within the Ideaverse, with the possibility that it does have a "real" counterpart in 616 but isn't necessarily the same as in the movies

I think I might add to this here.

So the Star Wars movies, even if they weren't established as works of fiction within the Marvel Universe, would have some questionable implications on the world building if they really happened in 616 as presented. So let's for example assume that instead of having micro-organisms in their cells that connect them to a mysterious energy field like in the movies, the 616 version of the Jedi have something akin to the X-gene that allows them to connect to the astral plane, while the Ideaverse Jedi do just have the micro-organisms like in the movies.

This is so funny to me since it's just New Hope characters against all the Marvel heavy hitters the Star Wars side looks anemic. They have Greedo right there next to Thanos.

Why is Greedo even there? It gives the impression that he works for the Empire, when he was just some bounty hunter who was assigned a job by Jabba to take Solo out before getting shot by him in the first half of ANH

>>154990408
Doom and his knockoff.

Suppose that explains the Lego leak

He's a bad guy, so as such he's paired with the rest of the bad guys. I doubt Ultron, Thanos and Doom are working together

Do GotG not count?
Maybe it's to keep the power level low, like the most powerful characters on those covers are the Hulk and the FF
>>
>>154990883
>Thanos gets the force
Doom and Thanos already have mysticism and psionics under their belt, the Emperor should be curious about the machinations of races like the Asgardians and Titans. Which under better writing would lead to an unnerving discovery and encountered of the influence of the Celestials contrast the Force, but I wouldn't force hold my breath.
>>
I'm surprised at their restraint by not giving Wolverine lightsaberclaws (he's totally gonna get those isn't he?)
>>
No wait, I take it back. The Guardians of the Galaxy ARE here, they're just hidden behind Han, Chewie and Treepio. Yes, put the one set of characters who have even the slightest justification for being here, and you draw them really tiny and obscured. That makes sense. Fuck everything.

Also, Quill is going to be utterly insufferable in this thing, isn't he?

>>154990919
Carol is a cosmic character and an Air Force pilot. Having her be in this STAR WARS crossover is far too logical for these blithering retards.
>>
>>154990969

I would guess so, i can't imaige Kevin Smith being able to control himself on quipping with him
I doubt this will happen, but it would be interesting if Smith included the more mystical aspect of Star-Lord in this crossover, like the Lord of the Sun stuff from his 70s origin that Ewing used and the element guns
>>

I refuse to call Star Wars "A New Hope" but more importantly, they will burn for doing a Marvel/Star Wars crossover and not including the Beast, the most 1977 Avenger of them all.

I bet 50 bucks that this is all Wanda's fault, especially since she's right there on the main cover, where she stands out since she's right next to much more popular characters like Spider-Man, Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk, and Thor.

Anon star wars is the name of the whole franchise the first movie is a new hope

I think she's probably mostly there because they need a girl in the group. Not that long ago it would have been Carol.
>>
>>154993635
Star Wars is the name of the first movie, which led to various other Star Wars sequels and spinoffs. "A New Hope" is something Lucas came up with to gaslight the people who paid to see Star Wars in 1977.

This is my "Han Shot First" (which he did, in the popular 1977 movie called Star Wars).
>>
>>154989992
So this is how far they’ve fallen huh? Who asked for this you think? Marvel or Lucasfilms?

it works this it turns there is even more to palpatine then anybody knew, as it turns he knows the secret of life and death. Thus this is how Gwen gets brought by him why bring her back however, simple you see he figures out peter is spider-man so he turns Gwen into a evil dark version of he that he can destroy spider-man. Welcome to the dark side of the force Gwen and to your worst Nightmare peter.

The designs clash horribly, and no I'm not retarded enough to say "Dude what if Spidey met luke Skywalker!?".

Earth does theoretically exist in the Star Wars universe, but it's not in the Star Wars galaxy.

I feel like, if they're gonna be that desperate for this crossover then they may as well have gotten Patton Oswalt to write it as his character announced it in Parks and Rec. It would be a fitting capstone to this era of corporate slop "nerd"-lifestyle invasion of fandom

On the other hand I am glad it isn't Slott or Jason Aaron writing it
