This comic book has to be my all time favorite comic book I’ve read so far in my life. And why that is, I will of course explain in this review because thats why I’m writing it in the end.

This comic has so good plot lines. In this comic book we get two plot lines, one following Luke, Leia, Chewie and Lando and the second plot line follows Darth Vader’s scheme to capture Luke. And I gotta say that both of those plot line gave me huge nostalgia to my very first time watching the Star Wars movie. And solely because of this I cant help myself but love this comic book even more than I already did from getting the amazing plot lines. 

The artwork in this comic book is so very good, which really at times made me feel like I was watching a animated star wars short movie rather than reading a comic book. Which of course made me give this comic book extra points for doing.

There is a lot of character development in a way happening in this comic book, and there is a lot of the OG Star Wars action. Like gun action and the Sith intriguing and scheming going on. Which really thats why star wars is so much fun for me personally at least. 

The narrative of both stories in this comic book feel very familiar to what we expect from star wars content (movies, series, comic books, books and video games) but at the same time both of the stories in this comic book feel fresh. By fresh I mean that it doesn’t feel like it is just copying everything else we have seen in the past in the star wars movies. The author and the artist gives us the Star Wars familiarity of what makes Star Wars, Star Wars but at the same time it gives us a new storyline and expends the universe in a way. 

We get the OG star wars characters in this comic book, but we also get 2 new characters and oh boy I would love to see more of the 2 new characters we get in this comic book. 

If you are a star wars fan (like myself) and you are looking to start your journey with star wars comic book then easily (in my opinion) this comic book is a very good place to start that journey.

I Give This Book 5 / 5
