Question Star wars 2020 reading order?
Ok so I have every comic in the star wars, Darth Vader, bounty hunters, and dr aphra in some form or fashion. Including the hidden empire omni. Should I just Read each series separately? Or should I try to read them in chronological order if a list exists. And if I do read series which one should I start with? Thanks in advance!

My Collection Total Steal: my Second Comic Haul - 15 Oct 26
Hi everyone,
I'm a Star Wars book collector, seeking a full collection of adult Canon and Legends novels.
I've always been interested in the comics but never picked them up as they're so pricy here in Aus. As I buy secondhand and often in lots, I have recently had some comics included.
I don't know much but I did really want to check out Legacy. When I saw it on Marketplace in a stack of misc comics, I immediately asked to come grab it.
I bought the pictured lot for $50 AUD, so $10 AUD each ($6.92 USD). Legacy was my main interest but im so keep to check all of these out.
The other three comics all have slight water damage in a corner. Luckily, Legacy doesn't!

My Review I finished Darth Maul (2017) by Cullen Bunn, Luke Ross and Nolan Woodward
I can no longer deny it: I’ve grown fond of the character of Maul, a figure as compelling in his backstory as he is in his design. It’s interesting how his journey began with somewhat superficial tie in stories that merely exploited his talents as an assassin, only to evolve over time into a more nuanced portrayal, ultimately developing into a genuinely fascinating character.
I loved this comic from start to end. Serving as a precursor of some ideas showed in Black, White & Red, it lays a solid foundation for the character in the era before Ep I. It delves into a figure who, despite his inherently brutal nature, cannot help but question his own teachings and his master. Having been steeped in nothing but hatred and aggression his entire life, he finds an abstract enemy far less compelling than a flesh-and-blood one, a realization that drives him to act impulsively and seek to prove himself. It’s an approach that is, ironically, very human; it highlights the transient nature of Sidious’s training, an endless cycle of sacrifice destined to conclude only when someone else finally kills his pupil. I also appreciate how the author leaves subtle clues pointing to Maul’s own desire to become the torturer in charge, to exert a dark influence over others, just as was exerted upon him. This foreshadows the path his life would take after he lost his value to Sidious. Cad, Aurra, and Vorhdeilo serve effectively as henchmen, balancing the Sith’s otherwise taciturn demeanor with sarcastic remarks and more conventional action sequences.
Surprisingly, Maul isn’t the only villain in the story. Xev Xrexus, the person indirectly responsible for the entire situation, proves to be a strong antagonist. The circumstances surrounding the kidnapping of the Padawan, Eldra, and the way she is objectified before potential buyers, is truly repulsive, a detail that immediately makes the character stand out for me. And speaking of Eldra: despite her limited time, she is intriguing enough to make her ultimate fate feel genuinely tragic. It really shows just how willing the Sith is to risk everything for a hollow moment of satisfaction.
Overall, a very enjoyable character study of Maul and a more than great brackground story. I really hope we’ll see more of this level of quality in future seasons of Shadow Lord.

Question Need more!!
So I just started getting into the comics in the last month. I've been using marvel unlimited since it has a ton but that's ending soon and I'll move to the next platform but when I was doing some research to see how many star wars comics there are the number suggests to me that marvel unlimited does not have all of them so my question to you guys is where else can I read more? It has to be online and doesn't need to be free I'll gladly pay but please give me some recommendations for other places to read star wars comics I'm addicted

Legends Comics I have begun my collector's journey
Recently acquired an interest for Star Wars Legends comics. I decided to collect as many of the Epic Collections as I can get.
I've noticed that Legacy Vol 4 is especially rare, so I'm very proud and happy that I found it for an acceptable price. Ania Solo is such a gorgeous character.
I'm desperately eager for the Dark Empire collection (New Republic Vol 5) in case anyone's got a tip ✌️
