Often, when a community changes its practices for practical reasons, they're later able to reflect on the deeper implications of that change. Those implications then become the main justifications for continuing it. -M

Hmm I wonder if that teaching on limits and restraint developed in the decades after the Guardian Protocols and the streamlining of lightsaber designs in response to the Nihil crisis - also something we see in a Charles Soule comic.

I was referring to this- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_... I guess it's just called Broadway not Broadway Ave (I've only been to NYC twice!)

Also, rent in Manhattan is...rent in Manhattan. Moving into a building owned by Disney and already operated by Marvel has got to save them truckloads of cash.

Do I detect an "itch to pitch" a new story?

Tractor Beam Comics Reviews @thetractorbeam.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Is distribution going to stay in NYC? Penguin Random House is likely staying on Broadway Ave, while their US distribution warehouses are in Maryland. All I can tell right now is SDCC next week just got more interesting (I wish I were there!), as did D23, NYCC and SWCLA...

Tractor Beam Comics Reviews @thetractorbeam.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Otoh, this might not affect either of those things- LFL is primarily in San Francisco, and again, so much of this happens online. What *can't* mainly happen online is printing and distribution of physical books. Remember it was The Great Diamond Meltdown(s) that sparked this upheaval.

2. Will they return to longer comic runs or stick with the trend of shorter, 5-10 issue books? Was this trend a result of Cebulski transitioning out, or his own perspective on the current volatility of the comics industry? If so, could Wacker's tenure spell a change?

1. Does this mean more forays into original characters and chunks of timeline, or return to a heavier dose of adaptations tie-ins? and most critically,

Of course, for Star Wars, it always was and always will be an extension. When it comes to the GFFA, I think the key questions for the move and for the new EIC are:

Tractor Beam Comics Reviews @thetractorbeam.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Do those "opportunities for collaboration" mean a stronger two-way pipeline of ideas, or, more cynically, mean that Marvel and Lucasfilm Studios can put more weight on making comics simply an extension of on-screen content?

Tractor Beam Comics Reviews @thetractorbeam.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

So, why California? "This move [to Burbank] will position the team beside our broader creative organization and create opportunities for collaboration across both Marvel and Disney."

Tractor Beam Comics Reviews @thetractorbeam.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

First thing that came to mind, echoed in the article: "...where once most creators lived in the Tri-State area, today’s creator community is global." A vast majority of comic book creation, just like everything else, now happens online. So there wasn't a *need* to stay in NYC.
