Well, I thought it was funny at least. While it may go for the easy gag, the bad pun, or the totally absurd... it still made me laugh.
The easiest description would be "Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead" meets Star Wars. It's the adventure of two dimwitted (and previously unnamed) background characters from the Star Wars saga, and their adventures that accidentally steer the course of the trilogy.
The original two-issue mini series was an absolute classic. The follow-up from about a year ago was a bit forced, and not quite as funny. But still funny. Not sure about the other contents of this trade, but I think there's a story or two that I haven't read.
Writer Kevin Rubio was responsible for "TROOPS" the parody video that mashed up stormtroopers with "COPS." If you like that kind of humor, you'll enjoy this.
Side note: I saw this trade in a comics shop, and it had a different cover than pictured. Not sure if there are variants, or if the Amazon art is not current, but what I saw was nicer than what's pictured.

Officers Tag Greenley and Bink Otauna were minding their own business aboard a familiar, princess-harboring freighter when they suddenly found themselves under siege. Now under attack by the Empire, they will choose life over a noble death and "borrow" the armor off a pair of deceased stormtroopers. Their new disguises might get them off the freighter alive, but they'll also lead Tag and Bink on an adventure neither could have predicted! Chock-full of appearances by everyone's favorite Star Wars characters, Tag & Bink cleverly weaves the pair's misadventures into the movies themselves. No setting is safe as they traverse the galaxy from the Death Star to the Sarlacc pit to Cloud City to Endor!
