No Comments »SPOILER REVIEW – Alexander Freed’s Alphabet Squadron Paves The Way For A New Era In The Star Wars Universe
The Empire is not going away quietly in Alexander Freed’s Alphabet Squadron and the galaxy is a very dangerous place. I hope that’s not stating the obvious, because I feel that’s one thing you should know when picking up this novel – which tells a story set in a relatively untouched era of the Star Wars timeline.

Review – Vader Gets Trippy In Marvel’s Vader: Dark Visions #5
Well, I’m relieved this series has ended. We here at Star Wars News Net try to keep it positive, look for the good in every piece of content that comes our way, and keep our criticism of stories constructive.

Review – Hutts Ruin Everything In Marvel’s Age of Rebellion: Jabba the Hutt
Confession time: My earliest memory of Star Wars is from a 1984 run showing of Return of the Jedi, being escorted out of the theater by my father as a small child, terrified of a giant slug who just murdered an innocent Twi’lek woman as she screamed out in terror. Needless to say, Jabba the Hutt and […]

Review – Problems of His Own In Marvel’s Age of Rebellion: Lando Calrissian
Age of Rebellion continues this week with Lando Calrissian in “Cloud City Blues”. The charming rogue faces some very real problems of administrating a city, balancing a budget, and realizing if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. This story brought me back to both earlier Marvel Lando titles, as well as the performances […]
