That doesn't prevent Dr. Aphra's character from being any less endearing. She's still someone that's easy to root for. At the same time, she's also someone that can slip up and not upset too many people. Gillen's development of her character continues to be strong and Andrea Broccardo's art adds visual appeal with that distinct Star Wars style. Dr. Aphra may not care much for the Force since it can't pay her debts, but she doesn't even need it to be a great character. Debts or not, the galaxy is inherently richer because of her presence.

Doctor Aphra feels like it's finally on a good path here as the focus is on Aphra herself and the other core characters. The fun of the deal she's trying to put together brings in a lot of interesting unsavory types to engage with and that helps to give us a look at more of the underworld that she dabbles in. The dynamic with Rur is still a fine line to walk and Gillen largely handles it well, even if I want to slap Rur around a bit, and Walker and Deering put together a fun looking book with a lot of aliens with some great designs and sense of weight and presence about them. My delight with Triple-Zero and Beetee has me really looking forward to what twists and turns lay ahead, however, because a swing back to a dangerous side of Aphra's life should be a heck of a lot of fun.

The start of Aphra trying to cut a deal puts the characters in place, with the final page being scream inducing. Seeing Aphra hustle to make the big bucks is okay, but not as enjoyable as her stealing something. The visuals, though, are outstanding. This could be seen more favorable when more of the story is revealed. Read Full Review

Kev Walker is welcomed back as an artist. An interesting story kicks off here. I got a bit of a refresher on the immortal Rur. Which I needed and Aphra and the murder droids are as entertaining as ever. A cool reveal at the end may mean that we're going to get to see one of the classic characters in this comic very soon.

I'm thrilled to see Kev Walker back on the art, it just feels so right. This one is introducing a new arc and so not much has happened as of yet, but you know Aphra can't help but attract trouble.
