It looks like the Star Wars comic books might be the best place to look if you want clues on what Disney is planning for the franchise's future. The latest Marvel Comics release possibly paid tribute to a certain ship from Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire and may have hinted at its return in more stories.
Spoilers Ahead! You Have Been Warned!
In Star Wars #61, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia Organa, and Han Solo manage to win the trust of the colony leader on the moon Hubin. Unfortunately, their new ally is immediately attacked by Stormtroopers and the trio have to find a way to escape. Luckily, they are aided by the leader's daughter Tula Markona in finding ships for their way out.

Yes, Han gets reunited once again with the Millennium Falcon but does the ship on the right look familiar? It sure looks like the ship Dash Rendar modified and made his own in Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire.
It's still possible that the ship in Star Wars #61 is a completely different YT-2400 light freighter, right? Nevertheless, fans are hoping that it could be the future Outrider and that Dash will get his own comic book in the future. However, this is still based on speculations so it's best to take it with a grain of salt.
The synopsis for Star Wars #61 reads as follows:
"The great love story of our time as man and spaceship are brought back together in a tearful reunion. Er...HAN gets the FALCON back. It's not just about the escape—it's what you leave behind..."
Star Wars #61 is now available in digital and print.
