Star Wars Adventures #14 (Cover B - Brokenshire Deva Lompop) was gone at my shop except for the last copy I purchased today. There haven’t been any sales above cover, but I don’t see many left online. Could be a good book to pick up if you see one. This is also IDWs final Star Wars Adventures issue before the license switches to Dark Horse. 

This story also takes place in the High Republic era, which is ~200 years before we met her during the War of the Bounty Hunters

Ah I knew I forgot one this week!  Thanks for the reminder… her origin, correct?

Did Omega Red show up in the Book of Boba Fett finale? Really need him to show up in something!

If by "Omega" you mean "the end" and if by "red" you mean "blue", yes, the end of someone blue did occur in the finale of Book of Boba Fett. :whistle:

High Republic #15 isn't out yet (3/2) but cover price copies have all disappeared online and listings are up to $10 plus shipping. 1:25 has already sold for $90. This appears to have all stemmed from KCC putting out an alert that it will feature the first appearance of the Leveler. It's been echoed by other online hucksters.

Only issue with that...the character has already appeared in Trail of Shadows #5 :facepalm:  

sheep gonna sheep.

Looks like 3 panels with a hand, one with eyes in a shadow and another in the shadows showing a little more.

Is that what you are referring to?

I consider Trail of Shadows #5 to be the first. But if people are going to go with HR #15 because they are told to...fine by me. I preordered plenty of HR 15 and a few ratios. 

Below are the panels/pages you were referring to.

Ugh. Probably considered a cameo. One of the main things I hate about spec, the fuzzy rules regarding first appearances.

Hmm… maybe a cameo since you only see it close to full in one panel in TOS5?  

Similar to Grand Inquisitor cameo in Kanan 12 versus full app in Darth Vader 6 (2017)?

I agree though, pretty fuzzy.

I’m a sheep.  Loaded up on SWHR 15 :p

Slightly off subject, Trail of Shadows is an awesome read.  I’ve been really impressed with the High Republic series across the board thus far.

If the character never appeared again. Would you know who / what it is? If the answer is no, that's a cameo IMO.

Personally prefer "Brief Appearance" and "Full Appearance". 

"Cameo" means the character is already well-known and only makes a brief appearance (like Stan Lee "cameos" in MCU movies). But... the market has already decided what "cameo" means. So, I guess.
