Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Adaptation #1

Phil Noto's cover for this 2025 Marvel adaptation sets a commanding tone, placing Kylo Ren front and center — red crossguard lightsaber in hand — flanked by the armored Knights of Ren and Sith-armored figures looming in the shadows behind him. Inset medallions along the bottom showcase Darth Vader's melted helmet, a dark pyramid-shaped artifact, a pale severe-faced figure, and a red-robed woman, hinting at the sweeping scope of what this story adaptation promises to explore. Writer Jody Houser and artist Will Sliney bring The Rise of Skywalker to the comics page, with Guru-eFX's colors giving Noto's evocative cover a moody, blue-tinged atmosphere that feels fitting for the saga's final chapter.
