Dark Horse Comics ends its second era of publishing Star Wars comics with all cylinders firing like mad as The High Republic Adventures -- Pathfinders #6 (of 6) brings the wild story to a fitting and satisfying end. It's a high point on which to exit the Star War all-ages license for the publisher, and the creatives involved with its comics will be sorely missed. In Marvel's The Fall of Kylo Ren #3 (of 5), everyone's at the mercy of a fast-learning droid drawn to the Sith-inspired shard as the Tava and the Knights of Ren try their level best to shake the tail, despite Kylo Ren's best efforts to stand his ground, no matter the cast. In The Mandalorian and Grogu: Nightmare on Nevarro #1 ... well we don't know. No review this week because we're still not on Mad Cave Studios/Papercutz media list. Comics Discussed This Week: - The Fall of Kylo Ren #3 (of 5) - The High Republic Adventures -- Pathfinders #6 (of 6) Star Wars Comics New to Marvel Unlimited This Week:
 - Galaxy's Edge: Echoes of the Empire #4 (of 5)
