Marvel Comics' information and covers images for Star Wars comics on sale in December 2021 has been released by Lucasfilm, and it drops right into the thick of what will be the post-'War of the Bounty Hunters' era. 

After her surprise debut in Star Wars: War of the Bounty Hunters #1, Solo: A Star Wars Story's Qi'ra is re-establishing the Crimson Dawn criminal syndicate in her own image - with help from the likes of Ren, the namesake of the Knights of Ren that Ben Solo falls into years later.

On the flip side, Darth Vader's solo title is about the Dark Lord of the Sith preparing a response for Crimson Dawn's reappearance and their intrusion into his (and the Empire's) affairs. His plan? He's recruiting "an unlikely crew of heroes and assassins" - wait... Heroes? Vader? There's something else going on here.
