<\/a><\/p>\nDarth Vader #9: <\/strong>The saga continues as Jocasta Nu battles the Grand Inquisitor and Darth Vader.\u00a0 This is a rather simple issue and that works to its benefit.\u00a0 There isn\u2019t much dialogue in this book, but what there is isn\u2019t too bad.\u00a0 There are some unexpected twists that work to keep this issue interesting.\u00a0 The biggest flaw in this book remains the art.\u00a0 The Grand Inquisitor looks terrible, the action is hard to follow, and body movement looks bizarre sometimes.\u00a0 This series remains a mixed bag and a pale impersonation of the first volume.\u00a0 However, there are far worse books (mostly written by Chuck) and if this comic can keep up the quality then it might be worth recommending.<\/p>\n \u00a0 Star Wars #40: <\/strong>The Jedha arc moves forward with the two rebel teams assaulting the mining operation and the Empire begins their second phase\/counterattack.\u00a0 The issue ends with Luke leaving to meet the Jedha pilgrims and learn more about the Force.\u00a0 The storytelling is top notch with some tense moments during the battle and a great scene between Luke and Leia concerning what\u2019s \u2018most important\u2019 for the rebellion.\u00a0 The art is still great, but the super realistic faces are a bit distracting when not every character has them.\u00a0 It doesn\u2019t ruin the book as it has been a staple of the series for so long.\u00a0 However, it would be nice if the facial art could be normalized to match the whole of the book.<\/p>\n \u00a0 Doctor Aphra 15: <\/strong>This comic goes from passible to boring to great and that unbalance of quality really hurts this book.\u00a0 While I did enjoy the last five or six pages the lead up to that was rather boring with the occasional good moment.\u00a0 Having two writers is not helping this book by any means, but as the story builds up it feels like this might have a good pay off.\u00a0 However, a decline in quality is not a fair trade with a possible interesting ending.\u00a0 The art on the other hand is great and it does make the more boring parts a little more interesting.\u00a0 Overall, the \u2018Remastered\u2019 arc hasn\u2019t been that good, however it feels like most of the exposition is done and this story might move forward more smoothly next issue.<\/p>\n \u00a0 Poe Dameron 22: <\/strong>This might be the best issue of this series despite the cover giving away the twist ending.\u00a0 The story is told in the standard heist movie style where the heist and the explanation occur at the same time.\u00a0 It works well enough and it is nice seeing some actual thought going into how the plot progresses.\u00a0 The art is still below average, but the starfighter battle looks good and the facial emotions are getting a little better.\u00a0 This has been a good arc thus far, but it does get annoying when a cover spoils a key part of a story.<\/p>\n \u00a0 Mace Windu 05: <\/strong>Finally this dumpster fire comes to an end with bland results.\u00a0 The writing is just as trash as it was in issue one with a boring battle followed by the Jedi acting like self-righteous jerks that proves everything Dibs suspects about the order.\u00a0 To compound matters there are little problems with the story telling like the enemy starship blowing up for no clear reason and no way to tell just how far apart the team is when they split up.\u00a0 While it is clear that this comic does pay homage to the Clone Wars series it is so poorly handled that it feels like a propaganda piece on why the Jedi should end.\u00a0 The art does not help save this series by any means.\u00a0 A friend even commented \u2018is that supposed to be Mace Windu\u2019 when looking at this issue.\u00a0 The action has no real drama to it and even Kit Fisto\u2019s belief that he was going to die felt shallow because it never looked like the odds were against him.\u00a0 The coloring is also off in a way that is hard to describe, but nothing looks like it should making this comic a major eye sore.\u00a0 I wanted to like this series, I was looking forward to this series, and I was massively disappointed by this series.\u00a0 There are two prequel era mini-series and both are terrible.\u00a0 Maybe the third time\u2019s the charm, but at this rate I highly doubt it.<\/p>\n \u00a0 The Last Jedi: Storms of Crait 01:<\/strong> It is never a good sign when the writers are comedians and the cover art makes your main hero look hyper effeminate.\u00a0 However, this comic is better than the cover would lead one to believe.\u00a0 The writing is above average, but predictable.\u00a0 There are no major surprises in this story and overall it doesn\u2019t add up to much.\u00a0 That being said, it was great to see Wedge do something for once and Luke using his farming background to his advantage was a nice touch.\u00a0 There wasn\u2019t much humor in the comic and what few jokes there were fell very flat.\u00a0 The art is terrible and distracting.\u00a0 There is a hyper-realistic look to everything, but Han Solo looks like Kurt Russel and Luke looks like a bad cosplayer.\u00a0 The ships and planet of Crait look great, but bodies move weird and facial expressions DO NOT match the words being spoken.\u00a0 This is easily a skip as it adds nothing to the story and the weird art is a major down point.\u00a0 The only major good part of this story is that it retcons a part of the terrible Princess Leia book, but that only counts for so much.<\/p>\n Written by Jared The Greek Despite being the month that gave us The Last Jedi, there are only six comic releases.\u00a0 This is about average, but on a big month like December it would seem like there would be more releases.\u00a0 This month did also…![\"\"](\"http:\/\/scarlet-rhapsody.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/40-00-195x300.jpg\")
