Star Wars #10
Star Wars #10 (2025) closes the third volume of Marvel's flagship Star Wars title — the first to inhabit the post-Return of the Jedi / New Republic era in current canon continuity, set approximately 6 ABY — and serves as the series finale of Alex Segura's ten-issue 'Out of the Darkness' arc. As the concluding chapter, it resolves the Fenril Sector crisis and the Nagai liberation storyline that the run had built since issue #1, making it the narrative capstone for a run that introduced the Nagai as canon Star Wars antagonists for the first time in the modern continuity. The issue also illustrates a pointed editorial moment for Marvel's Star Wars line: by ending at issue #10, this volume became a flashpoint in collector and critic discussion about Marvel's short-run restart strategy, with reviewers openly questioning whether the House of Ideas had given the post-Jedi era adequate storytelling space. That conversation — about what the New Republic era of Star Wars comics can and should be on the page — gives this finale an outsize cultural footprint relative to its page count.

The 2025 Star Wars series was launched by writer Alex Segura — a bestselling crime novelist making his extended run on the franchise's flagship title — alongside artist Phil Noto, with Luke Ross taking over art duties for the series' second half. The run was positioned by Marvel as an ambitious new chapter specifically designed to explore the post-Return of the Jedi galaxy, territory the two previous Marvel Star Wars volumes (which ran 75 and 50 issues respectively) had not occupied. Segura built story continuity directly from his own earlier Star Wars: Battle of Jakku — Insurgency Rising miniseries, carrying over characters like Kith Alaytia and plot threads about the Fenril Sector into the ongoing. The series was ultimately collected in its entirety — issues #1–10 plus Free Comic Book Day 2025 material — in the trade paperback Star Wars: Out of the Darkness.
