    A really fun issue that leaves us with a cliffhanger that would make the old Flash Gordon movie serials from the 1930s and 40s blush. Read Full Review

    There continues to be a basic kind of fun to this property and it's enjoyable as a kind of simple space opera romp. At times it doesn't feel very Star Wars-y outside of the characters being used but it has at least captured the right voice for Han at this point in time and just seeing him and Chewie fall into problematic situations is fun. I'm curious to see how things go with the next installment and where the series finds itself after the first storyline. Part of it is just figuring out the nature of the character and property with that first storyline and getting a better handle on the next, so I'm holding out hope that it can come together better. But if not, it's still a fun romp that you can treat lightly and enjoy without trying to connect things too hard – for the most part. Read Full Review
