For one of my first Star Wars comics it was honestly really good and I can’t wait to read more

I don't expect much from tie in comics (and really any Star Wars tie in) but I figured I give it a try since it was helmed by Jason Aaron, and I'm glad I did! This was really fun and already it's adding depth to the characters and it looks like it's on track to add even more!

Didn’t choose an easy place to start with the Star Wars comics, accidentally starting a series which features a cross-over… but I’m glad picking up Darth Vader vol. 1 forced me to start this as I loved it. Looking forward to the cross-over part now so it’ll hopefully become a little more straightforward

There's more Vader in this trade than the whole OG trilogy.
Holy shit Bobba Fett can talk.
Is it just 'cause we Star Wars fans are so soaked in the Jedi mythos that everything about them seems basic knowledge to us and that the galaxy really knows next to nothing about them? Basically, did Han really not know what a lightsaber was called or was he just shitting on Vader by calling it a 'laser sword'?
Does Leia do her own hair? Or does she have a maid on board the fleet to do it for her?
How does Luke continue to maintain his cute farm boy image despite cutting a man's hand off?
These are my questions.

I wish I didn't have to wait for more of the story!
Also, this doesn't have the problem that the Leia story had; the characters definitely look like the characters. Which is delightful! And also (seemingly) rare. I think the artwork also helps add to writing's sense of... rightness. Like, I can often hear the dialogue in my head in the movie voices, so it's good writing, but I think seeing the characters properly helps that, too.
Anyway. Good times.
