    This is a solid issue that not only escalates the dispute over the Fenril sector but also reunites Han and Luke in the thick of the action. One of the more intriguing threads is the mystery of who controls the Clone Warsera battle droids. As fans of the Clone Wars animated series will remember, it's rare for droids to operate without some kind of humanoid commander pulling the strings. The rebellion brewing on Zantarrk is another welcome development, and it'll be exciting to see how that storyline unfolds. Still, the biggest game-changer here is the looming Fenril Fleet advancing toward New Republic spacesetting the stage for some major conflict ahead. Read Full Review

    After reading Dick Tracy, it just shocks me that Alex Segura just doesn't get Star Wars. This one at least has some action in it. I can't understand how everyone besides Luke isn't dead. There's just no rhyme or reason to this story. It's simply all over the place with no direction. I gave it until issue 5 to do something, and apparently Segura is taking this "story" beyond issue six, which is perhaps why this feels so diluted. By issue 12, it's going to feel like dragging around a corpse. I'm out. My Comic Review Channel - https://youtu.be/OpujWmS8zhI
