AIPT - David Brooke
Oct 28, 2021Star Wars: War of the Bounty Hunters: IG-88 is an example of how Star Wars comics enrich characters who are often given very little screen time. It's also an example of how there is heart and soul in any character, no matter if they are flesh and blood or metal and oil. It's a sympathetic story about a killer robot that that surprises, delights, and makes you think. Read Full Review

Oct 27, 2021The mega-crossover event that I really don't want to end and this book is part of the reason why. Smart, witty, beautiful, action-packed, it's everything a Star Wars comic should be. Coincidentally, it's also everything a good comic should be. Definitely worth your time and money. Read Full Review

Jan 01, 1970IG-88 #1 is alright as a stand-alone comic, poor as a tie-in, and not all that special as a tribute to a bounty hunter people have adored for decades. Read Full Review

Oct 27, 2021The book is surely entertaining and keeps the reader invested in IG-88's trajectory and concludes with the details that make him most fascinating, though anyone who is already familiar with the droid won't be missing out by passing on this standalone adventure. Read Full Review

Comic Crusaders - M.R. Jafri
Oct 28, 2021So much time is dedicated to repair and introspection and so little spent on actual action making this one of the most disappointing parts of what has otherwise been an excellent crossover. Read Full Review
