"I liked it!" - 3.5 star rating, with a round down.
This is kicks off a new story arc within the Rebellion comic book series, yet still continues from the foundation built within the previous issues 1-5.
Raze is a super creative character and is fun to imagine skittering about with his mechanical centipede like legs. Nightmare fuel for sure. Would be super cool to see in film/TV.
I cannot help but contemplate the connection I do not think is a coincidence between this comic and the Imperial Agent Class Story within the Star Wars The Old Republic (SWTOR) videogame. This comic came out in 2006-2008 timeframe, with SWTOR being launched in 2011... but check this out....
SWTOR started being conceived in 2005 as an follow-up videogame to Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR) that was released in 2003. This makes THIS comic released during the development phase of SWTOR ... that lasted six (6) years!
All of these dots connect when you play the Imperial Agent Class Story, which is essentially a ~20 hour videogame version of what is presented within this comic.
Which I must say, is pretty dang cool. I am not casting shade or trying to be critical. I in fact think the connection is neat and the Imperial Agent Class Story was my very first character in SWTOR and absolutely one of my overall favorites out of all the playable classes.
TL;DR
- Cool Comic!
- If you've played SWTOR and the Imperial Agent Class Story... you'll like this issue and where this arc is going!
Despite all of the above... not quite strong enough for me to place this as a 4. -
After the first arc of Rebellion, this feels like a fresh start. Love the Ocean's Eleven style set-up and how this focuses on secondary characters in the series rather than the film characters. And I'm curious about how the flashback of Vader killing a zabrak Jedi during Order 66 ties into the arc.
