The opening two issues of Skywalker Strikes are brilliant, especially the first, I love everything about them. The following five issues, however… they’re not great. It’s a shame too because this started on such a high note, hopefully the series picks up after this.

This entry in the series feels unnecessary. It's more of the same from the original trilogy, which I love, but don't necessarily need more of. There wasn't anything particularly new or fresh here, unless you count the very spoiler-y bomb that was dropped at the end that I don't care about at all--felt like a stunt and not at all true to the story.

I'm not a comic book fan, but this one was surprisingly fun. It's part of the new Star Wars Canon and takes place after Episode IV: A New Hope. There was plenty of action and adventure with Luke, Leia, Han, and Chewie, while also having enough plot to make it worth reading. I won't say it felt like a Star Wars movie because Lucas never focused on the everyday battles of the Resistance, but it felt true to the characters and that is what matters the most.
