This is a Star Wars book that knows exactly what it is and doesn’t pretend to be anything else. It is simply a victory lap for some favorite minor characters whose stories haven’t been finished yet. The frame story isn’t important, nor does it make sense. (In The Force Awakens, Bazine Netal is practically three feet away from the Falcon and can’t even bother to stand up. Why is she now running all over the galaxy trying to track it down? I have no idea.) The frame exists to give us fun glimpses of Agent Kallus, Lady Proxima, Lando and Nien Nunb, Han and Chewbacca at various ages, and Hondo. Michael Moreci is quite good at writing all of these characters, and especially good at Hondo. A quick read, and a bunch of fun.

This is not a hot take at all, but this volume absolutely cemented the fact that I desperately want a Hondo movie.

Definitely the best Star Wars Adventures collection I’ve read. I don’t really dig these bite sized disconnected stories that most of this series is, but this volume jumps around to different characters and are connected by the Millennium Falcon. Great Porg content.

Flight of the Falcon is a group of comics from the Star Wars Adventures series that detail someone working for the New Order trying to locate the Millennium Falcon. I'm honestly not sure why aside from being instructed by a mysterious boss that they never revealed. It spans different eras of Star Wars and the different hands the Falcon has passed between. It was a neat read and offers insight on some of the crap the Falcon has been through. Star Wars Adventures is geared towards a younger audience but the artwork is usually pretty good and these entries were no exception.

This was a cool way to have a story run through these comics and a few select books. I have now read all the comics and I have to complete the story with [b:Star Wars: Pirate's Price|40119165|Star Wars Pirate's Price (Flight of the Falcon, #2)|Lou Anders|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1534129805s/40119165.jpg|62216089] and [b:Star Wars: Lando's Luck|40119166|Star Wars Lando's Luck (Flight of the Falcon, #1)|Justina Ireland|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1534183046s/40119166.jpg|63036169]. The comics did a great job of telling parts of the story in a fun way and I am sure the books will be a fun ride as well. This little story arc is great for younger Star Wars fans, but is fun for adults too.
