    I look forward to seeing more of Zahra and Leia's relationship as it unfolds in future issues. It will be interesting to see how this first encounter will affect Leia's judgment in future stories. Read Full Review

    The groundwork has been set for this story arc to really get going. Zahra gets the upper hand by leaving Leia hurt and questioning herself and the rebellion, or so it would seem. Anyone who truly knows the politician/warrior/princess should never underestimate the daughter of freedom fighters Bail and Breha Organa! The more the Empire tightens its grip, the more star systems will fall through its fingers. Read Full Review

    The Fandom Post - Chris Beveridge Nov 10, 2020

    Installments like this are what really makes me a big fan of the expanded universe as we have it in this current period. There are a lot of things that tie backward and forward in good ways and moments where it goes back to things like original concept storyboard ideas that were tossed or expanded upon in different ways. The end result is that we get a really good story that has a lot of energy and personal drama fueling it but it also has the little hooks that delight those that see them and enjoy the connected nature of it all. This is a really solid issue with a lot of little moments for all things that ends up delivering a very good time. Read Full Review

    I would recommend this to even the more casual Star Wars fan as you can still drop into this without having to know too much of the back story. Read Full Review

    Honestly, there isn't much to this issue as it only had one task. Soule and Rossana achieve that task exceptionally well, which should pay emotional dividends moving forward. Read Full Review

    While the book might not come with any game-changing reveals or shocking outcomes, merely being an exciting and inventive chapter within the overall universe is all it takes for a comic to be a success, which this installment aptly accomplishes. - Read Full Review

    Commander Zahra can't stick the landing in an issue that repeats the unfortunate mistakes of the past. Read Full Review
