People too lazy to do their due diligence.

I personally think Jim’s Comics is a smart guy. If you look back at his older video’s he’s provided very solid spec advice on all of them. I’ve been watching him for years.

The funny thing is, is that he doesn’t have a complete understanding of the High Republic line.

The Annual is a huge book. Much bigger than he is saying.

The print run, per Comichron, is 22,223 copies. And, by my count, it has 17 first appearances.

Character Cameo First Full
Alys Crah Wong The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021
Barchibar The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021
Bell Zettifar The High Republic: Trail of Shadows 1 The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021
Ember The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021

Lynela Kabe-Oyu The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021
Ovarto The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021
Porter Engle The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021

Queen Nyla The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021
Respriler The High Republic Adventures 11 The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021
Smeemarm The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021

You could also make a good argument that it’s Vernestra Rhow’s first full as well.

Another book to load up on is HR Eye of the Storm # 1, Marchion Ro’s dad was the previous Eye before Lourna Dee and Marchion took him out. There is a very high chance that his Dad will be the major villain in the next phase. The Eye of the Storm # 1 is his First Full.

I haven’t seen anyone mention this yet here, but Disney has now confirmed the rumor of a live-action show for Disney Plus!!!

Congrats to everyone who specced hard on The HR!

Also, @drunkwooky, the unnamed Jedi in HR # 8, he looks like Elzar Mann to me, what do you think?

It’s at least her first most significant issue. She’s a tertiary character in 2, 3, 4, and 5.

On my way to get groceries and stopped at the LCS. Last 2 on the back issue shelf. Cover price, baby :+1:

I have been looking for the adventures annual for some time and was lucky to stop into a shop while my son was between games for hockey. Almost walked out before stumbling on a few. This should be a great key down the road. Plus I think with a 7.99 price tag it will make it much harder to find and smaller print run

Link to Disney confirming? Are you referring to the Acolyte show? That was announced by Disney a long time ago.

Also, that is not the print run. ComicChron does not capture print run, only sales.

They are doing a new series with filming to start in June I believe. Casting is for a bunch of young actors. So the speculation is it being on the high republic stuff. Hr adventures 1 is one to grab in my opinion. Lots of key young characters plus in 2 you get first Ro. He should come out on top for the baddie. Hr 7 has been selling fast now too. I personally like 10 for lourne Dee.

We’ve all heard that news, at least most of us have…Has Disney confirmed that, though? OP said Disney confirmed.

Does comichron capture both Diamond and penguin?
