Star Wars is returning to Free Comic Book Day with new adventures from Marvel Comics, with the issue featuring Qui-Gon Jinn in a new prequel adventure.
That’s right, Free Comic Book Day is almost upon us and giving us a reason to visit our favourite comic book shop for freebies, and this year we’ll be getting someStar Warsstories.

One will feature Qui-Gon Jinn as he teams up with fellow Jedi, Tensu Run, and hunt down a “villainous Corlis Rath.”
Tensu Run has appeared in the comics previously, during the Conquest of Regis Kor, and quickly became a thorn in the side ofDarth Vader.
This will be the first appearance of Rath and little is known about them, including who they work for, if anyone.
In fact, the whole story is shrouded in secrecy, and we don’t know anything about it beyond a sentence describing the short story.

Also included in the issue will be a story aboutLuke Skywalkerfacing off against a band of pirates.
While the third story visits withKylo Renand a mysterious connection to another person called Vanee.
Fans of the prequels will be overjoyed to see their favourite long-haired boy make a comeback.
Qui-Gon Jinn has long been a fan-favourite and while Liam Neeson is unlikely to return as the Jedi Master in any long-running appearance, we do get these delightful little stories occasionally.
