This is a great continuation to the Screaming Citadel story arc, and it is recommendable to any Star Wars fan and comic book reader. Read Full Review
I'll admit it took a few pages before Andrea Broccardo's artwork click for me with this series but when it did I definitely dug it a lot. It just needed to not be in the middle of an arc as it's jarring from the previous installments as it's so different. It does serve the needs of this chapter well as she really captures the chaos and facial expressions incredibly well and combined with the color work it's just wonderfully done. Kieron Gillen's script keeps things moving and we get new levels of disturbing from our favorite murderbots that have me curious to see what's next for them. Aphra's a bit more background this time around, reacting more than anything else, but what we get is definitely fun and there's a growing humanization to her that Luke is bringing out in some big and surprising ways. More, please! Read Full Review
Doctor Aphra #7 was yet another fantastic entry in Marvel's latest Star Wars crossover, with "The Screaming Citadel" shaping up to be a fantastic tale. Not only does this third chapter give us some surprising, and not so surprising, twists, but it also continues to build upon this unique narrative nicely. Read Full Review
"The Screaming Citadel" isn't shaping up to be very notable in terms of plot or its relevance to Luke's quest to become a Jedi Knight, but ti does offer a winning blend of goofy yet high-stakes action and solid character drama. Read Full Review
God, that's good! Great issue, the whole adventure feels like a good 80's blockbuster, but totally up to date.
This series is very fun!
Holy crap, this arc is just nuts! I'm liking the artwork in this one a bit more than in the main Star Wars comics as well, it's a little more cartoony, but it is more dynamic.
This is a fun issue. The third part of this Screaming Citadel story gets all of the characters we love involved. Triple 0 really stands out once again but so do Luke and Aphra. I found myself chuckling at a lot of the frames as well.
"Screaming Citadel" kind of veers off track in this issue for me, as Luke's people arrive and we have some goofy action. It just didn't interest me like the first two chapters. There are definitely diminishing returns from the excellent opener to this chapter. The art was pretty good, but in the final panel of one page in the middle of the book, when Luke is talking to Aphra, he looks exactly like Alfred E. Neuman. So, there you go.
