Overall. This is a lot of fun and I look forward to seeing how our anti-heroes manage to get out of this. Read Full Review
It would not be a proper Han Solo & Chewbacca ending without showing them going out of the fryer and into the oven, so close to completing their mission too. Yet readers can be sure Solo and his gang will live to fight another day and outsmart the bad guys. Read Full Review
The second installment of this plays out pretty well all things told as it has a simple and straightforward adventure with the kinds of minor twists that you'd expect. There's the mild uncertainty as to the truthiness of the father and I'm fine with that as long as it's resolved one way or another by the end. This is a solid little caper playing out that lets Greedo get a little more life – since we did pretty much start knowing him as dead after all – and I'm enjoying it for its simplicity in a way. The script works well, the dialogue fits the characters, and the artwork captures the kind of look that you'd want for Corellia. It's enjoyable and a solid addition to the larger mythos so far.

Still, the book marks for an effective tribute to the titular heroes that captures their loveable dynamic. Read Full Review
Star Wars: Han Solo & Chewbacca #2piles on the angst for Han Solo, as the smuggler comes face to face with a man claiming to be his father. I hope this plot point isn't a dead end and leads to some genuinely emotional moments, and I also hope that future episodes give Chewbacca an equal focus. Plus, there's the question of why Vancto is after Han. Either way, you slice it, everyone's favorite scoundrel can't catch a break. Read Full Review
The art here feels just as average as the story, with characters that are recognizable but never interesting. David Messina is an extraordinary artist, but his work in this issue just feels vastly uninspired. Marvel's Star Wars books are so amazing at their peak. It makes series like this even more egregious when they waste valuable comic book time and space on false reunions and unimportant quests. Hopefully the creators disprove this in future issues but as of now there is no artistic or creative drive to recommend this book. Read Full Review
