Adelanto
Bienvenidos a Janix, un planeta laberíntico, iluminado por luces de neón y sumido en sombras, que se encuentra fuera del alcance del Imperio. El capitán Brander Lawson hace todo lo posible por sortear la ley en un territorio sin ley. Se le une su compañero, un droide apodado Dos Botas, mientras se enfrentan a intrigantes jefes del crimen... ¡y ante la inminente amenaza del señor de las sombras, Maul!
"Ya lo he dicho antes: soy un gran fanático de Star Wars", compartió Percy. "Mi experiencia previa escribiendo en una galaxia muy, muy lejana —Darth Maul - Negro, Blanco y Rojo, Boba Fett - Negro, Blanco y Rojo— fue una delicia absoluta. Pero esos eran one-shots. Coqueteos con la franquicia. Con La Sombra de Maul, puedo compartir una historia más extensa sobre uno de mis personajes favoritos, a la vez que exploro una nueva perspectiva del universo de Star Wars.

"Esta es una historia de ciencia ficción, pero también es una historia de crímenes", continuó. "Es una historia sobre policías, sindicatos criminales, una ciudad iluminada por neón y llena de callejones sombríos que esconde muchos pecados y secretos. He colaborado con un artista que ya es un veterano y leyenda de Star Wars: Madibek Musabeckov. Su arte es crudo y realista, y encaja a la perfección con el tono noir. Hemos estado en estrecho contacto con Lucasfilm, leyendo guiones y viendo episodios de esta fantástica nueva serie animada, y nuestra historia servirá de preludio a lo que los espectadores verán en la pantalla.

NOTA DE PRENSA OFICIAL ORIGINAL
NEW STAR WARS: SHADOW OF MAUL COMIC SERIES SETS UP THE WORLD OF THE UPCOMING STAR WARS: MAUL - SHADOW LORD ANIMATED SERIES
STAR WARS: SHADOW OF MAUL, a five-issue comic series by Benjamin Percy and Madibek Musabekov and prequel to Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord, arrives in March.
New York, NY— December 11, 2025 — One of the most feared villains of the galaxy far, far away returns next year in Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord, a new animated series set after the events of the final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. In March, Marvel Comics will pave the way for the Disney+ series with STAR WARS: SHADOW OF MAUL, a five-issue prequel series written by Marvel superstar Benjamin Percy, who wrote the Sith Lord in last year’s Star Wars: Darth Maul – Black, White & Red series, and drawn by Madibek Musabekov, known for his acclaimed work on the recent Star Wars: Jedi Knights series.
Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord will reveal Maul’s plan to rebuild his criminal syndicate on Janix, a planet untouched by the Empire. STAR WARS: SHADOW OF MAUL introduces this new setting and cast, including Captain Brander Lawson and his partner, a droid nicknamed Two Boots, as they investigate shadowy dealings on Janix.
Welcome to Janix, a neon-lit, shadow-soaked maze of a planet that lies beyond the reach of the Empire. Captain Brander Lawson is doing his best to navigate the law in a lawless territory. He’s joined by his partner, a droid nicknamed Two Boots, as they face off against scheming crime bosses...and as the looming threat of the shadow lord, Maul, nears!
“I've said it before: I'm a giant Star Wars nerd,” Percy shared. “My previous experience writing in a galaxy far, far away—Darth Maul - Black, White, and Red, Boba Fett - Black, White, and Red—was an absolute delight. But those were one-shots. Flirtations with the franchise. With Shadow of Maul, I'm able to share a more expansive story about one of my favorite characters, while also exploring a fresh angle on the Star Wars universe.
“This is a sci-fi story, but it's also a crime story,” he continued. “It's a story about cops, criminal syndicates, a neon-lit, shadow-alleyed city that hides many sins and secrets. I'm teamed up with an artist who's already a Star Wars veteran and legend: Madibek Musabeckov. His art is gritty and grounded and perfectly matches the noir tone. We've been in close contact with Lucasfilm—reading scripts and watching episodes of this fantastic new animated series—and our story will serve as a prelude to what viewers will see play out on the screen.”
