In celebration of its opening at Walt Disney World in 2022, Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser will be getting a 5-issue comic book miniseries that will focus on the many voyages of the Halcyon – the starcruiser that this experience takes place on.
As detailed on StarWars.com, this miniseries, which is titled Star Wars: Halcyon Legacy, is being written by Star Wars: Bounty Hunters' Ethan Sacks and features art by Star Wars: The Rise of Kylo Ren's Will Sliney. This team also worked on the Star Wars: Galaxy's Ede comic miniseries that launched in 2019.
This "era-spanning story from the High Republic to the days of the First Order" that covers 275 years will allow fans to learn more about the Halcyon and those who have been part of its history. Alongside seeing the first meeting of Lando Calrissian and Hondo Ohnaka, we will also learn the story of The High Republic's Burryaga Agaburry and Nibs Assek fending off an attack by the Nihil on one of Halcyon's first voyages.
Speaking of Burryaga, the Wookie Jedi will be featured on the cover of Star Wars: Halcyon Legacy #1 with art from E.M. Gist.
While there is no release date as of this writing, it very well may be released ahead of Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser's March 1, 2022, opening date. This two-night, immersive adventure's goal is to let its guests live out their own Star Wars story. From wielding a lightsaber to helping the crew on the bridge keep the Halcyon running properly to trying food from that galaxy far, far away, there is meant to be something for everyone.
Considering the price of a standard cabin can run you around $6,000 for a group of four, we've tried to gather everything we know about Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser in one place so you can make an informed decision as to whether or not you want to board the Halcyon in Walt Disney World.
