The Original Trilogy gets the spotlight starting this issue! Not ones to rest on their laurels, Han and Luke embark on a mission to secure equipment for the fledgling rebellion in this exciting tale set just after A New Hope! Variant cover by Eisner Award winner Michael Avon Oeming, co-creator of Powers!
Both tales are fun and well illustrated, but the Kabe story is gorgeous. The familiar trio's personalities are absolutely true in the first tale, with Han being cocky and Luke a worrier. The Kabe tale is sweet, cute, and an absolute reason Baldari should be given her own series to illustrate. This will win over fans and create new ones. Read Full Review
The dynamic between all of the major players in the Star Wars saga is the major selling point, though this story honing in on Luke and Han allows us to witness their playful banter, Han's tendencies for deception, and Luke's heroism, offering an amusing and action-packed story. Read Full Review
I think I'm looking forward to the next couple of issues a bit more because they will be set in the time period between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, which is vastly more unexplored than the time period from this issue and has a bit more open storytelling potential. Still, this issue was a nice regular installment in a series that I look forward to every month. Not everything has to have big stakes or big implications, it's nice to have a series that's just for fun all-ages tales. Read Full Review
The first story is a classic Han and Luke team up. The second story is a little simple, but fairly cute. Easy issue to like.
