Fresh out of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the best pilot in the galaxy gets his own comic book in April 2016.

Star Wars: Poe Dameron will launch from Marvel Comics as an ongoing series from the creative team of Charles Soule and Phil Noto. It's the first ongoing series that takes place after the events of Return of the Jedi in the new Disney-led canon.

We have an exclusive first look preview for you courtesy of Marvel, showing the daring pilot in action in his custom black X-Wing. His lovable astromech BB-8 is of course right there with him, too.

The first issue of the series will also have a special BB-8-centric backup written and drawn by Chris Eliopolous, because the droid wasn't lovable enough already. Check out the preview below, and ask a comic shop to pre-order it.
