Get into the Holiday Spirit with New 'Star Wars' Life Day Covers

Next month, Marvel Comics joins Star Wars' Life Day celebration with four all-new variant covers.

Each November, the galaxy far, far away celebrates family, joy, and harmony on Life Day. This year, Marvel Comics will commemorate this longstanding Wookiee tradition by reflecting these values in all-new variant covers! 

Gracing the covers of STAR WARS, STAR WARS: DARTH VADER, STAR WARS: DOCTOR APHRA, and STAR WARS: BOUNTY HUNTERS, the four new Life Day Variant Covers come from artists Mike Del Mundo and Rod Reis and feature characters from throughout various eras of Star Wars storytelling, including nods to the original Star Wars Holiday Special.

Fans can enjoy heartwarming moments like young Anakin Skywalker sharing a meal with his mother Shmi, Han Solo and Chewie decorating, Chef Gormaanda whipping up a delicious feast, and Doctor Aphra and Krrsantan reuniting for the season!
