Comic book retailers have been tols by MArvel Comics that Chip Zdarsky has dropped off the credits for the upcoming Star Wars Age Of Republic Special as a writer, which will still be written by Ethan Sacks, Jody Houser and Marc Guggenheim.

But Chip was to be writing the first Jar Jar Binks solo story.

If he has gone – has the story gone too?

Here's the new solicit with amended credits, though the copy remains the same…

STAR WARS AOR SPECIAL #1
(W) Sacks, Ethan, Jody Houser, More (A) Carlos E. Gomez, Paolo Villanelli, More (CA) Rod Reis
THE GREATEST HEROES OF THE REPUBLIC, THE DEADLIEST VILLAINS – AND EVERYONE IN BETWEEN!
Four creative teams! Four stories featuring your favorite Star Wars characters!
•  The baddest Jedi in the galaxy has a score to settle – MACE WINDU returns in an action-packed adventure from OLD MAN HAWKEYE'S Ethan Sacks!
•  You can run, but can you hide from the twin lightsabers of Sith assassin ASAJJ VENTRESS? Feel her fury in a tale expertly woven by veteran STAR WARS comic scribe Jody Houser (THRAWN, THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN: RENEW YOUR VOWS).
•  And is JAR JAR BINKS' role in the Star Wars story over? NOT BY A LONG SHOT! Because Chip Zdarsky (PETER PARKER: THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN and MARVEL TWO-IN-ONE) has a rancor bone to pick with the galaxy's most notorious Gungan.
•  You can take the clone out of the war but you can never take the war out of the clone – CAPTAIN REX dusts off his blaster and enters the fray in a story by X-MEN: GOLD author Marc Guggenheim.
