Review: Star Wars: The Ultimate Pop-Up Galaxy is an Artistic Wonder and a Giant Feat of Tiny Engineering
Everyone loves a good pop-up book, am I right? I mean, there’s just something about them that turns ordinary reading into an adventure.

Review: Aphra Reunites with Her Father in Marvel’s Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #38
The final arc in the ongoing Doctor Aphra series continues this week in issue #38, “A Rogue’s End: Part II”. Granted, the impact of the final story arc and its ominous title are slightly undercut by the recent announcement of the series relaunch next April, so we know Aphra will survive the finale. However, over […]

Review – The Hunt For Skywalker Begins In Marvel’s Doctor Aphra #37
Sad to say this is the beginning of “A Rogue’s End”, which will be the final arc of Doctor Aphra. While the doctor’s future in Star Wars is still vague, I’m hopeful there are big plans, but it’s still sad to know this series is coming to its end. The good news is writer Simon Spurrier kicked […]

Review – Doctor Aphra and the Lost Sith Sword in Marvel’s Galaxy’s Edge #4
This fourth issue of Galaxy’s Edge continues the hunt for an elusive artifact that’s revealed to be a Sith sword. Like all the pieces in Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities, there’s a story behind not only the artifact itself, but how it came to be in his possession. Somehow, I’m not at all surprised the archaeologist who […]
