I loved how well Luke is written. Soule does a great job of highlighting Luke's struggle to let go of his doubt and trust in the force. Also, we get a really nice cliffhanger. Read Full Review
Castiello delivers some great art. I love the style and it works perfectly with both the character moments and the action. Read Full Review
If you like the interconnected nature of Star Wars, this is an issue that will either keep your mind going a lot or looking up things in Wookiepedia. And it's worth it because it helps to showcase how things have been expanded over the years and that there are some great cuts here to highlight everything. Read Full Review
This marks a strong start for the upcoming arc that will surely help assuage fans' hesitations who may have been disappointing in the sprawling "War of the Bounty Hunters," as Charles Soule gets to lean more into his strengths with this straightforward adventure. Read Full Review
Luke has discovered a Jedi artifact to help him boost his training. However the help that he gets is from a surprisingly familiar face. Armed with direct knowledge straight from a Jedi source, Luke is certain to gain the knowledge he needs to defeat his father. Read Full Review
The character art throughout the issue is solid but the backgrounds in many scenes feel a bit too simple. There are great depictions of the landmark locations across the galaxy, but the smaller scenes lack some depth. That being said, the true limiting factor here may be a lack of any action or conflict beyond Luke's own thoughts. This may just be the beginning of a much larger story, but it's tough to see why any reader would return simply to hear Yoda's old hologram talk next issue. Read Full Review
So great! I love the Kirak Infil'a throwback. I found him to be an interesting character in the previous Vader series.
