This is a pretty fun installment all around as it again works the Crimson Dawn storyline by starting to peel back some of the top-most layers to see what's really out there and going on. It's not a smooth start since we're getting a few different things thrown at us. I'm not reading Valance's series so I have no idea what he's been up to for a while but it was fun seeing him and his group that he's assigned to work with. And to see Ochi get smacked around a bit, hopefully realizing that he has to earn his position every minute of his life with Vader. Vilanova's artwork is solid enough to work here even as a kind of one-off tale and I suspect with some regular time spent on it they'd grow well on the book. It's got a good look and a mostly solid execution as it works to do more world-building. Read Full Review
