Marvel Are Launching a Poe Dameron Comic Book

They can't really spoil Rey or Finns backstory before Episode VIII comes out.

Now that we’ve all seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens (spoiler: it’s pretty good, y’all), everyone’s got their favourite characters. We think Finn was the coolest and Kylo Renn was the most interesting, but it’s Oscar Isaac’s slick AF fighter pilot (and apparently the internet’s space boyfriend) Poe Dameron who’s getting a spin-off first.

Marvel Comics are launching a Poe Dameron solo comic. Since their acquisition by Disney, Marvel have been putting out some pretty dope Star Wars comics, so we’re pretty excited by this. And it makes sense to give Poe his own series. There’s probably loads of secret backstory still to be revealed about Finn and Rey, but Poe is basically just a heroic space-fighter dude, going off and having adventures—he can go on missions and stuff without contradicting things from future films.
