We're building the bridges when it comes to Star Wars movies, comics and books, too, speaking with writer Cavan Scott and delving deep into a new story arc in Marvel's superb Poe Dameron series.

From The Force Awakens to The Last Jedi in Poe Dameron #26 to news that Star Wars will begin to cross from A New Hope to The Empire Strikes Back starting with issue #50, there's no chasm deep enough to preclude our -- and your -- crossing.

Speaking of crossing vast gulfs, writer Cavan Scott joins us for a chat about why he strived, successfully, to bring Jaxxon and Amaiza back into canon, too.

Like you, he's a fan of the Star Wars Saga and is among those now contributing to it through his novels (Choose Your Destiny: Han and Chewie Adventure and four volumes of Adventures in Wild Space, including The Escape, The Snare, The Steal and The Cold) as well as comics (Star Wars Adventures) and, we hope, much more to come in the next few months.

The new Star Wars comics out this week include:
_ Darth Vader #15
_ Doctor Aphra #19
_ Star Wars Adventures 2018 Annual
