SWHR has always been a hold for the long term for me. Ever since I spec’d on it pre-FOC…

yea even with high print run, it had so many open order covers that cover A shouldnt be hurt to badly

Honestly high ratio was a 1:25 and a few store exclusives. I would say print run was definitely smaller than demand and if a show and characters are a hit (which it likely will be), look out.

High Republic Adventures 2 should be readily available. At least it used to be.

Found this interesting.

There’s a new character being introduced in High Republic Adventures Annual 2021 named Alys “Crash” Ongwa.

I saw a guy posted on reddit that the character was an homage to Doctor Aphra creator Alyssa Wong. This seemed weird to me but after reflection, the Alyssa:Alys connection and the Wong:Ongwa (pig latin(ish) connection) made it seem legit. I then found out that Alyssa Wong’s Twitter handle is “crashwong” so that sealed the deal. Anybody hear of something like this happening in comics before?

I’m assuming she’ll be a minor character but who knows.

I am 100% certain this is an homage to Alyssa Wong.

I called her out on this on Twitter and she “liked” it. I wouldn’t say a “like” very clearly expresses anything, but I take that to be an affirmative nod that this is the case:

Also, this character will be featured in Star Wars High Republic Adventures Annual 2021.

"we’ve got a new character from The High Republic Adventures Annual: 16-year-old Alys “Crash” Ongwa and her droid K8. " -StarWars.com

Alyssa Wong is an author on that book. It’s probably a character in her own story.

Caspar Wijngaard drew himself having a terrifying conversation with Darth Vader in Doctor Aphra 40.

Droid reminds me of VINCENT or Old BOB.

A virgin cover of HRA 10 would be pretty sweet. The trade dress on the regular release covers Qort’s face.

There’s a couple of new online only exclusives from IDW for Star Wars High Republic Adventures Annual and for #11. They are coining it as the “Hall of Deals”.

$10 each but I have no idea of the print run for either.
(Note: There’s a few other non Star Wars online exclusives also)
