Review by Darth Kondorr, Poland, 2017:

This book is not a big event but boy, this one was fun, definitely more fun than that almost awful Princess Leia comic book. And it also begins almost right after "Rogue Two: A New Hope" ;), so it makes it easier to forget that one. Already on page two I was amazed how perfectly Rucka captures the classic heroes, even though he sometimes overdoes it with Hans signature wits and smarts. The story also perfectly aligns with the fun of Episode IV but also mixes in some of the darkness that was in the recent Rogue One movie.
This one is a short, fun and worthy read, but it does not get the full 5 stars, because it is not very substantial, does not really add nothing new and is rather on the short side.

Rating: 4 / 5
