I don't know if these are the official dates, but the first TPB's for all current Star Wars comics are already available for preorder on Amazon.
The limited Princess Leia series (5 issues, I think) seems to be available September 15 as a TPB.
Star Wars Volume 1 also has September 15 as a release date for the TPB.
Darth Vader's first TPB looks to be available October 20.
The upcoming Kanan: The Last Padawan series seems to be available November 3 as a TPB.
Also, I've just noticed that if you click on one of these comics, under "customers who bought this item also bought" there are a bunch of Journey to The Force Awakens books available for preorder, I thought "Aftermath" was the only one.
All of these comics exist in the new Disney canon
Star Wars (Takes place between episodes 4 and 5)
Darth Vader (Takes place alongside the Star Wars comic)
Star Wars: Shattered Empire (Shows a glimpse of the post-episode 6 world)
Star Wars: Kanan (Between episodes 3 and 4)
Star Wars: Princess Leia (Immediately after episode 4)
Star Wars: Lando (Sometime pre-episode 5)
He posted the ISBN 13 (which he probably copied from somewhere online though. It's the same as Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.com, and same as here
Ask for a picture of the book/ISBN, you should know then.
I don't have it so I don't know, but perhaps in the TPB instead of listing the last unit as "6" at the bottom of the page, they list "Epilogue", which could be the mistake on his part thinking it's just a continuation of "5", but that's just speculation.
I definitely like Kylo more than Rey. I'm super HAPPY with the entire cast including Rey. But my heart has always been with the bad guys. I knew I was going to love Kylo the most the moment I saw him. In fact the moment I saw him I looked at my boyfriend and said "You're costuming that." like he didn't have an option, I'm making him a Kylo and he's going to be mine and that's that!
But I LOVE the point you brought up that this movie really makes you sympathize with the bad guys and I loved that. You feel for Finn who is freaked out by the power and cruelty of the first order and you actually feel for Kylo who is struggling between light and dark. Watching the promos and getting hyped, I never imagined I would feel for Kylo. I assumed I'd sit there and think he was amazing but I didn't think I'd connect with him, it was actually kind of nice! I'm circle jerking, I know, I can't help it.
Here's a list of shit you need to pick up:
The visual dictionary
The Art of Star Wars the Force Awakens
And you mentioned having a book with layouts of the death star and such so you may like Incredible Cross Sections.
And from what EVERYONE I know has been telling me, The Force Awakens novelization is a must read if you want juicy little details that weren't made crystal clear in the movie!
Also, if you are not reading the comics. STOP. RIGHT. NOW. AND. READ. THEM!!
In order of priority:
Darth Vader
Star Wars
Princess Leia
Shattered Empire
And read Kanan if you're a Rebels fan. I HAVE the comic I just haven't read that one yet!
But no seriously that Darth Vader comic. The stuff that happens. UGH. NERDGASM. After reading them and re-watching the movies in preparation for TFA I fell in love with the originals all over again. It was like that fresh awesome new love I had for them the first time! So good!
Here's what I got:
http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Kanan-Padawan-Marvel/dp/0785193669
Kanan The Last Padawan
Shattered Empire
Kanan focuses on Kanan before he becomes a rebel and shows a bit of the relationship between him and his master and what happened to him before and after Order 66.
Shattered Empire takes place the day after ROTJ. Main character is Shara Bey (Poe Dameron's mom). She crosses path with several key characters we know.
I would also recommend Guardians of the Whills. It's not a comic but it's a short story focuses on Baze & Chirrut leading up to the events of Rogue One. You get to see how Baze gets the weapon he uses in the movie.
Would also recommend Revenge of the Sith by Matthew Stover. This is NOT what I would call a movie adaptation. This is what ROTS should've been. The author still touches on the key points from the movie, but he takes a few creative liberties and ultimately I enjoyed this book WAY more than the movie.
