Maybe starting to stretch the story line (

Fun. I love the droids. Triple Zero and Beetwo (I believe)... (

Another solid entry from the Darth Vader series. It reminds us why Vader is an unstoppable force. Although, it seems like bit of a diversion from the main arc and unfortunately less significant. Altogether, it's well-written but not as compelling as the other arcs. (

Not bad - just a complicated angle of the GFFA I'm not all that clear on...

There is a huge expanse of comic Star Wars material that I enjoy for the imagery, but some of the details escape me. I mostly enjoyed this for the humor with Dr. Aphra's murderous droids (she is NOT in the story, which would have added one or two stars to my rating). Still, a fun entry. (
