The Mandalorian’s First Season Gets a Marvel Adaptation

Marvel Comics is launching an episode-by-episode adaptation of the first season of Star Wars: The Mandalorian that will hit shelves later this year.

Disney+’s award-winning series Star Wars: The Mandalorian is coming to the world of comics.

According to StarWars.com, Marvel Comics’ eight-issue, episode-by-episode adaptation of the first season of The Mandalorian will launch in June. The series will be illustrated by Georges Jeanty and written by Rodney Barnes. “The story of the Mandalorian checks so many boxes of the stuff I’m passionate about,” Barnes stated. “I love Westerns, fantasy, science fiction, comedy, drama…it’s a dream gig for any writer. I’m just glad I was chosen for this assignment!”

“I’ve always thought an artist’s style is a lot like writing in shorthand. It’s very subjective. What I bring to Star Wars is my detail and love for a galaxy far, far away,” Jeanty explained. “Star Wars, especially where bounty hunters are concerned, is a messy landscape. I love drawing all the little details. My look has always been detail-oriented, and with The Mandalorian, there is so much going on with the character and in the background, and I look forward to adding visually to the already rich tapestry that makes up this universe!”

The first season of The Mandalorian debuted on Disney+ in November 2019 and went on to be nominated for Outstanding Drama Series at the 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards and to win seven Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards. The second season premiered in October 2020, and the third season is currently being filmed; it is expected to have a release sometime this year. Carl Weathers, who directed Season 2’s “Chapter 12: The Siege,” has confirmed that he is working on one of Season 3’s storylines.

While fans will have to wait a while longer for both The Mandalorian‘s comic book adaptation and third season, the premiere date of another highly anticipated  Star Wars Disney+ project is getting ever close. The Obi-Wan Kenobi series is scheduled to make its debut on the streaming service on May 25. The show will follow the titular Jedi Master as he attempts to live quietly on Tatooine after the events of Revenge of the Sith and will see actor Ewan McGregor return to the iconic role.

Moreover, the Obi-Wan Kenobi series will reportedly introduce a new Jedi character named Nari. Nari is described as “a young Jedi straggler” who seeks to restore the Jedi Order and overthrow the Empire.


The first two seasons of The Mandalorian are available to stream on Disney+.
