This might be the best issue of the series yet, just because of how well it ties every previous one together and makes it all make sense. I'm so much more excited to see where things go now, especially because of how the next several issues are about the War. Read Full Review

As a Star Wars fan, Im ready for the upcoming War of the Bounty Hunters” crossover event. However, as much as Im looking forward to it, I think this issue is good enough to stand on its own, without the prelude designation. It can definitely be enjoyed by readers who do not plan to read all the crossover issues. So, if youre reading and enjoying Star Wars: Bounty Hunters” but not the other Star Wars titles – you can pick up this issue without worry. Its worth the price of admission on its own.

Coming into this storyline after it's been over and having read it elsewhere from other points of view is going to make this segment of the crossover amusing to read in the next couple of issues. This one does what it needs to in order to get things into place for it but there's not a lot of meat on the bones here. The flashback side has its moments but it's just kind of empty for part of it as it's mostly action and only gives us a small taste of what Valance was like at this point. The book generally seems to suffer from this need to be constantly in motion and moving which is keeping it from being able to spend time with its characters and let them breathe and exist. The action is good and the artwork is great but it needs something more. Read Full Review

Bounty Hunters #12 is not a good start to this crossover arc. Little happens and what does feels pretty inconsequential. I'm not ready to count it out completely yet, but it will need to improve both its plot's reason for being and its characterization of basically every character in the book. Hopefully it can become a more interesting contribution to the crossover. Read Full Review
