Shadow of Vaderwas announced Oct. 5 at New York Comic Con with plans to debut in January.

Wendig said he believed the decision rested solely with Marvel Comics and not with Lucasfilms publishing division.

He does not currently have any novels or other projects in the works with that department.

Marvel Comics did not immediately respond to EWs request for comment.

Itll be chilling, he said.

Itll make creators with smaller voices than mine be afraid to speak out.

His firing is the second removal of an outspoken freelance writer by Marvel Comics.

Wendig said the tone of his tweets was never previously questioned by Marvel until he was abruptly fired.
