Greg Pak, Phil Noto Take over Star Wars at Marvel in July

It looks like Greg Pak and Phil Noto will be the new creative team of Marvel's main Star Wars title starting in July, at least according to the Amazon listing for November's Star Wars Vol. 12 trade paperback collection, as noticed by redditor gorosaur on Reddit's /r/starwarscomics.

The trade paperback, which collects Star Wars #68-75, lists Pak as writer and Noto as illustrator on the title. Writer Kieron Gillen's long run on the title ends with June's Star Wars #67.
