Marvel’s Star Wars #6 – Major New Backstory Development for Han Solo in the New Canon

Screenshot-2

The latest issue of Marvel’s Star Wars series comes out today, and it contains an unexpected plot twist that could have major ramifications for The Force Awakens. Read on, and beware of possible TFA spoilers…

 

 

Star Wars #6, on comic store shelves today, contains some great action sequences (which we’ll save for the official review) as well as a bolt from the blue about Han Solo’s past. The events take place between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back.

 

 

 

 

SPOILERS

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the new issue, we meet a woman who introduces herself as Sana Solo… Han’s wife.

 

Given Han’s reaction—head in hand and a dismayed, “Oh no…”—I think it’s safe to assume that he’s at least got a complicated history with Sana. Is she really his wife? Well, I reckon we’ll just have to wait until a future issue to find out.

 

Screenshot

 

Another potentially interesting wrinkle to all this is, of course, that Sana is black. Now, given the fact that the LFL Story Group considers the Marvel comics to be canon along with all other new story releases, and that they have stated that they will gradually be revealing various connections between the new publications and the new films throughout the rest of this year, this raises the possibility that Finn, our stormtrooper defector hero from The Force Awakens, could conceivably (no pun intended!) be related to Sana.

 

This is, of course, merely speculation, and I could very likely be reading far too much into this. Obviously, it’s a big galaxy and there’s no reason to assume that Sana and Finn must be related simply because of their skin color. Plus, at this point it doesn’t sound like LFL is going to tie the new Star Wars films so tightly together with the published works that one has to read all of the books and comics to understand what’s happening in the movies.

 

However, it’s still interesting to surmise that Finn the soldier could have some scoundrel blood!

 

The next issue from this series will be a special one-off tale of Ben Kenobi (July 8, 2015). Then in issue #8, Luke continues his quest to learn about the Jedi. So more answers on July 29, 2015.

      Most people don’t. That’s why I mentioned that LFL doesn’t seem to be going that route, as far as we know, and that my speculation could very well be reading far too much into this.

          There’s no way Finn could be the son. The comic takes place at least 35-40 years before TFA, meaning Finn would have to be like 40 in TFA if this was Han’s wife pre-ANH!

    I am in the camp of believers that while the comics and story are all interconnected there isn’t going to be anything this major that is going to have an effect on a multi million dollar motion picture. If fans walk into The Force Awakens and see’s Han with a black son (not that there is anything wrong with that) there better be a better explanation then, hey I knocked up someone back in the day! It just doesn’t feel earned you know?

        I think what he means is that to the movie goer (who doesn’t read the comics) it would seem like something out of left field, and not something that was established beforehand in another movie, or set up within the movie itself.

          Yeah right, Disney/LFL already stated with everything connected, there is going to be stuff told in everything from TV, video games, comics, movies. If you don’t consume, you miss out.

            Yeah they would be missing out on backstory and extra things that people who really love the property would enjoy, but missing out on something effecting the movies? That doesn’t make a lick of sense!

    OK, I’m thinking a little more calmly now.
    Is she his REAL wife? or is this one of those “from a certain point of view / shotgun wedding” sort of situations?
    ‘Cause from a logistical perspective she remaining his wife throughout TESB and ROTJ is improbable at best.

      Not 100% sure but since the “Star Wars” comic depicts events occurring between ANH and TESB, this character is introduced to the SW canon between that time period (though it doesn’t mean that Han didn’t know her before the events of ANH and in fact, it is a character he knew from his past). Furthermore, there’s still a few more issues to go so only time will tell what happens to her in the canon SW universe.

        It takes place exactly 20 years after ROTS, in between ANH and ESB. The story is parallel to the Vader arc. In Vader, it is said to have been 20 years after ROTS in the current issue.

            I was responding to the question someone asked of when exactly this takes place…read a few comments up. I should have replied directly to that question but I replied to a reply. Yes we are aware that they all take place in between, but because of the specific mention in the Vader comic, we know it’s about one year after ANH and two years before TESB (or – 20 years after ROTS).

    A 2nd love interest was explored in Smugglers Bounty at Celebration. Leia was upset about her.

    “JAIME KING (Aurra Sing on The Clone Wars and CW’s Hart of Dixie) spices up the stage as Treya Lanic an old flame on a new life path.”

If you feel that you needed to make a statement on that comment of his, perhaps it is you that is struggling with race in regards to how to tolerate diversity (in other words, this is your way of expressing your racist thoughts).

      It’s been more than 20 years since “Maus” won the Pulitzer Prize, and almost 15 years since “Jimmy Corrigan: the Smartest Kid on Earth” won the Guardian First Book Prize. Great novelists like Thomas Pynchon, David Foster Wallace, and Michael Chabon have owned up to their creative debts to comics. Major musuems routinely have large exhibitions devoted to comics. And, even the most stuffy literary critics have accepted graphic novels into the literary canon. And yet, people who don’t know much about comics still decry them as ‘children’s literature’ as if it were obviously true (and by the way, as if children’s literature can’t simply be great literature).

      I’m not claiming Marvel’s Star Wars comics are great literature, but to dismiss something just in virtue of the fact that it’s a comic speaks to a lot of ignorance about the medium…

        He does have a point about undermining the OT though. The comics are of debatable quality storywise so it is especially painful to see them shoved inbetween the movies we all love so much. Some things are best left untouched (happy reminder of mediclorians)

    If marvel is going to keep resurrecting used ideas from the Dark Horse SW EU, why did Disney bother to kill off the old EU?? Han had an old love called Salla Zend, who was black…
    http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Salla_Zend

    Recycling vehicles, planets, etc is one thing, but when you start recycling characters, in almost the exact same scenario, one has to wonder why Disney is re-inventing the wheel, at the expense of fans who think they are buying something new.

        It’s more like an intellectual shell game. If they had any integrity they’d keep it the same character and add more depth / re introduce them, rather than just repeat but with different names for a phony ‘newness’ factor.

      THAT’S the character I was trying to remember! Thanks, man. Right, Han met his old flame Salla back on Nar Shaddaa in the Dark Empire series. I knew this whole thing sounded a bit familiar.

      Well, they did say that they were going to feel free to adapt elements from the old EU sources as they went along with the new canon. I guess this may very well be an example of that.

          When you could be right, i think it’s more a portrait of Jaina Solo. they ve pretty same physical caracteristics IMO. It’s a bit of a stretch but Ren could be the portrait of Jacen Solo. Remember we ve seen it with a rebel pilot uniform and we know he wear a Sith robe at an other moment. It’s like Jacen falling to the Dark Side.

            I definitely think it’s Kira Rey and Kylo Ren, based primarily on Jaina and Jacen, but the whole scavenger thing with Ania, and her finding a lightsaber, you know. All kinds of sources mixed together basically. Whatever, I’m loving what I see of Rey’s character so far!

    Han was obviously a “ladies man” before ANH, in the deleted scenes his first apperence was supposed to him making out with some mysterious chick. It’s what he did back then. Married though? That’s pushing it. I got the impression that leia was the first girl able to “tame” solo to anything more than a one-night stand. This is why I don’t like major retcons! Particularly in non-movie media. It’s like Ashoka not being in episode 3 or 4 or ezra not being in 4, 5, or 6…you know they won’t be sticking around because it would cause a major plot hole if they did. My money is this girl isn’t who she claims or isn’t long for this world.

    It’s one thing for Disney to create new stories and such for a new generation of fans, but when they start to interconnect storylines that completely alter the Lucas era of SW, it’s disheartening.
    Not only does it fuck up the feelings,perceptions, etc. long-time fans have followed for so long, it also changes what Lucas previously created.
    For anti-Lucas fans, this news probably isn’t a big deal or is actually interesting/surprising/intriguing/exciting. For long-time fans, we are witnessing the breakdown of the original SW saga into something completely different.

    I’m willing to bet that Han pulled a “Sawyer” (from Lost) on this chick and conned her. The marriage is probably a sham and he made out with a lot of money and now she’s after him with a vengeance. I could see this working, and I hope the actual scenario is similar to this.

    If Finn is Han’s biological son, he may have fathered him between episodes 6 & 7 at a time when Han & Leia were no longer a couple for whatever reason. Or, Finn could be Sana’s biological son AND Han’s adopted son, if Han reunited with Sana at a time that he broke up with Leia.
    Or, perhaps Han & Sana Solo just got married on a Las Vegas type planet, but never actually lived a married couple’s life and never bothered getting an official divorce. And so, this storyline might get wrapped up in a few more issues. Who knows? Only time will tell.

    #1 All of the content directly leading to TFA is labeled Journey to The Force Awakens. So that alone kills the idea that there’s any potential spoilers in this comic.

    #2 These comics take place between ANH and TESB, and The Force Awakens is over 30 years after Rotj.

    John Boyega is 23 years old. So unless the very unlikely occurrence that Han hooked up with this woman again post-ROTJ is true, and Disney is lying to us and there is more material leading to TFA outside of things labeled Journey to the Force Awakens, this doesn’t have anything to do with the sequel trilogy.

    I like this website over other SW spoiler sites because you have taken time to build a community around it, but this stuff needs to stop. All these kind of posts do is attract posters to your site that can’t tell the difference between spoilers and speculation or facts and opinion.

        i have to agree with him. Just because it is connected does not mean it ties directly into or contains spoilers, which is what he stated. The purpose of Journey to TFA is to do just that, tie directly into TFA and bridge the gap between RotJ and TFA.

    We all know Han was a womanizer, but his life as a smuggler pre-ANH would have left no time for a wife. It’s in his character to not enjoy being tied down. I hope the excuse is that he went on a major bender on Nar Shaddaa and ended up marrying Lando’s sister. That seems more like the scoundrel we know and love! haha

    What’s wrong with this? Han was a scoundrel & probably had a lot of lady drama. He didn’t even hook up with Leia till TESB, which this comic takes place beforehand. Finn is definitely NOT Han’s offspring because he’s not mixed. If Finn is related to anyone he could still be her son that was born several years after ROTJ and/or Lando’s son.

    Like, my little brain cannot begin to comprehend the incontinuity at work here!
    Like, how? when? nobody mentioned this in TESB.
    Who thought this was a good idea?

    The Space-African-ness of his wife is not the issue here.

    The issue is HE HAS A WIFE… BETWEEN A NEW HOPE AND EMPIRE STRIKES BACK………..WHAT THE HELL??

    Look I’m all for adding extra shit for the hell of it, but this is a step too far, just simply on a time-continuity standpoint.

    On the flip-side, she is kinda hot, but still, chronological an offense to the star wars timeline.

    “Han with a black lady actually makes a lot of sense.”

    No it doesn’t.

    While Han started out as a “sleazy pirate” we witnessed him change throughout the course of OT.

    Until by the end of ROTJ he had morphed from a selfish dickhead into a moral, selfless hero…courageous, loyal and devoted to a higher cause.

    So the idea that suddenly after these events that he would slip up, cheat on (betray) Leia, and start banging a black chick on the side is totally inconsistent with his previous moral arc.

    The Han we know would NEVER do something like this.

    And the fact that Disney thinks that he would demonstrates that they don’t understand the Original Trilogy anymore than a sober Lucas does.

      This takes place before Han and Leia are even a couple. It’s totally within his character. He’s a player and a scoundrel who’s left broken hearts and angry husbands all over the galaxy of nearly every species too probably. He was probably even playing the Tonnika sisters at the same time unbeknown to each one. No this is definitely Han Solo.

      mm… on a character standpoint, it’s possible.

      Story-wise? NO WAY.

      I don’t think it’s wrong to have a black chick inserted into the story just… did they really HAVE to put us through the “long-lost wife” routine? Really?

      I agree that this doesn’t speak well for the SW Story Group.

      I stand by my original statement that Han hitting on a black lady at some point in time [before ANH, like in the height of his “scruffy scumbag” phase] makes PERFECT sense.

    Star Wars needs more black characters.
    It needs more female characters.

    Finn’s story arc seems to be near identical to Han’s. And it’s pretty obvious that he’s going to be fulfilling the role of lovable rogue. And I can swallow their being some sort of history between the two characters. But if they’ve got to destroy Han as a respectable character to do it…..this won’t work. His turn around, and development of some real depth of character was what made that character lovable. Now if his relationship with Leia failed, and they both moved on ~ so be it.

    But if they added Finn as a bastard son that Han didn’t raise, just to shoehorn Boyega in there, it’s going to make me sad that they just had to mess with a childhood hero for the sake of injecting some PC bantha poodoo.
