3. Thrawn (2018)
The Marvel Comics Thrawn series is an adaption of Timothy Zahn’s novel about Thrawn’s rise through the Imperial ranks, which was also a New York Times best-seller. Jody Houser (Faith) and Luke Ross (Captain America and the Mighty Avengers) adapt the critical darling with resounding success.
Starting with a young Thrawn as he graduates from the Imperial Academy with the highest marks, he quickly rises through the ranks as a rising star in the Imperial Navy. A rival by the name of Arihnda Pryce is a constant thorn, trying to knock Thrawn down the more they progress throughout the Empire.
Ross and Houser highlight the best aspects of their work within this comic, which is a must-read for any Thrawn fan. Thrawn is a brilliant adaptation of Timothy Zahn’s novel and the closest thing to a silver screen version fans will be getting anytime soon.
