Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I will always find it difficult to get excited over Star Wars comics, the action on the screen is so entertaining that when reading a Star Wars comic, the part contributed by my imagination is distracting. I envision Luke, Han, C3PO and Leia in their own voices and my thinking their voices is a very poor second to hearing them. Therefore, I tend to find any Star Wars comic that I read to be boring. That is not the case with the Star Wars books; with no images my mind is free to conjure up the visual complement aand I am not acting out dialog balloons.
There was nothing in this book capable of overcoming this prejudice, the villains are often creatures that are not well explained or described. The adventures lack the challenging charm of the movies; there is little depth to the stories, although they attempt to fill out some of the background on some of the characters, most notably Admiral AckBar. Han is still the impulsive fighter; once again you wonder how he has managed to survive so long as a smuggler, dealing with the ruthless villains and gangsters that he did business with.
Disappointing as a set of Star Wars stories, this comic fails to generate any of the interest of the movies. While this is admittedly a high bar, it just never really gets off the ground.
