POE DAMERON #4 takes the series back to the ground level. Whereas the last issue got a little fantastical, this one brings the characters right back into the dirt. It's great to see a STAR WARS story about some of the “smaller” characters, and Soule and Noto don't let that go to waste. The issue is exciting, the characters are all easily lovable, and thereisn't a wasted panel in sight. There's never been a better time to be a STAR WARS comic fan. Read Full Review
When I got this book I wasn't really sure if I would like it, if I would want to keep reading the series. I can say after 4 issues I am in, I will keep up with this one. It wasanice surpriseEven if you aren't a Star Wars fan there is a lot to like about this issue, so I 100% suggest picking it up, you won't regret it. Read Full Review
A decent beginning for the next little story arc, with some good character moments and connections to other "Star Wars" comics. Read Full Review
So there's a lot to like here, but it would be nice if the next story arc has a bit more to add to the wide-open canvas that is the pre-Force Awakens Star Wars universe. Read Full Review
The Poe Dameron series continues to be a struggle when it's a book I desperately want to like. The story isn't bad but it's also not selling things in a big or engaging way, which has me wondering if the Story Group from Lucasfilm are keeping things on a very tight leash here. I like that we're starting to flesh out the Black Squadron characters a bit because it'd be nice to remember their names more beyond the main three that I know and I'm excited to see what Grakkus has in store with what he might have in his little enclave. But beyond that, the book just isn't clicking for me with the artwork and that ends up dragging everything else down, which is unfortunate. I've loved Noto on other books but it's just not working in this realm for me. Read Full Review

The last issue of Poe Dameron was really hard to take but this story goes in a bit of a different direction with a really interesting new prison location and a few different twists and turns. Poe's search of Lor San Tekka is going to be a long one. The art is still really good and there is a few good moments that add a little more character to the other members of Black Squadron.
