Josemaria Casanovas Reveals The Scourge’s Corrupted Army In Connecting ‘Star Wars: Dark Droids’ Variants

by Tony Thornley

The Scourge is coming, and the Star Wars Universe’s droids will never be the same. To come with it, Marvel Comics has revealed another set of variant covers for the Star Wars: Dark Droids event.

From rising star artist Josemaria Casanovas, this set of connecting covers will run through the entire event (with the main miniseries from Charles Soule & Luke Ross), continuing to bridge the gap between The Empire Strikes Back & Return of the Jedi. It reveals a plethora of Scourge-corrupted droids and cyborgs that promise to give Luke Skywalker, Lando Calrissian, Leia Organa, Darth Vader, Doctor Aphra and all our protagonists the fight of their lives. I’d bet everyone will wish they were frozen in carbonite with Han Solo.

“This is one of the most impressive connecting covers I’ve ever seen,” Editor Mark Paniccia said. “Josemaria put his heart and soul into these along with many, many hours. I love this collection of droids! Every one of them is somebody’s favorite!”
