#STAR WARS SUPREME COMMANDER SNOKE SERIES#
Part of the larger Age of Resistance anthology series (which itself is a subcategory of the year-long Age of Star Wars maxi-series), Marvel’s Star Wars: Age of Resistance – Supreme Leader Snoke takes place prior to the events of The Force Awakens, but after Kylo Ren AKA Ben Solo had turned to the Dark Side of the Force, abandoned his former Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, and fell under the tutelage of Snoke himself.


This winter, we’ll get Marvel Comics’ Star Wars: The Rise of Kylo Ren miniseries and today the company released its one-shot Star Wars: Age of Resistance – Supreme Leader Snoke. Thankfully, with the December arrival of Abrams’ trilogy-closing Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker imminent, the gaps in Snoke’s history are starting to be filled in by some of Lucasfilm’s ancillary published materials– and may even be addressed in the movie, as the reappearance of Snoke’s predecessor Emperor Palpatine indicates we could learn what the Supreme Leader’s true role was in the grand scheme of things. So much so that the lack of much new background information about the character became one of the key sticking points cited by those unhappy with Rian Johnson’s 2017 follow-up Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Abrams’ Star Wars: The Force Awakens, fans have been intensely curious about the backstory behind Supreme Leader Snoke, the imposing leader of the First Order played so menacingly by Andy Serkis.
