Yeah that's a huge gap in between issues. To go from December to February and, most likely, March or April for a storyline started in September just keeps me from having interest. To have that be the big jump, I'm thinking it's the script. Pichelli can do several issues in a row, so I'm thinking script is being rewritten.
How does JJ Abrams have the time to do this when he’s been working nonstop on Rise of Skywalker?
A) It takes far less time to write a script for a comic than to draw it.
B) In this case Abrams is collaborating with his son Henry Abrams who seems to have done most of the writing.
C) Rise of Skywalker has wrapped production and is in post-production and while Abrams has an important role overseeing that, he does have significant down-time to work on other stuff.
D) A good portion of any active film-maker's time is involved in hustling and pre-production even during the making of a current film. The eyes are always on the next film, next project, casting the next gig, getting funding, working on drafts for next project, reading a book you might want to adapt and so on.
Can we shut the hell up about Henry Abrams' experience? Lay off the kid. I'm not kidding.
