Today, Mike Richardson of Dark Horse Comics announced on Facebook that the Star Wars comic books will be moving to a new publisher. That publisher is Marvel Comics. Dark Horse Comics has been the publisher for the Star Wars comic books since 1991, so it will be interesting to see how Dark Horse Comics handles this loss and Marvel Comics handles this gain.
Mike stated that Disney, now the owner of Lucasfilm, notified them of this move. The move is slated to take place in 2015.
