GRAND THEFT FALCON! HAN and CHEWIE run into the dangerous IRVING BOYS! But are they any match for the notorious brothers who stole the FALCON? And what nefarious deal is gunrunner DUCAIN cooking up with junk boss UNKAR PLUTT?
I'm continuing to enjoy this series, and I especially appreciate how it weaves in more detail about the ancillary characters from The Force Awakens who were chasing after Han. Bringing Unkar Pluttthe junk dealer who used to buy scrap from Reyinto the storyline as a key player in the Falcon's chain of thefts is a brilliant touch. It adds depth to the film's background characters while naturally expanding the wider lore. The way the comic ties these elements together feels organic rather than forced, and it's great fun seeing these smaller figures play bigger roles in Han's misadventures. With the plot tightening and tensions rising between Han and Chewie, I'm genuinely looking forward to seeing where the next issue takes things. Read Full Review
