  Han and Chewie are my favourite character in all of Star Wars. I even own the original Brian Daley Han Solo books (first prints). Seeing this pair of scoundrels back in the action certainly put a smile on this old Star Wars fans face. Read Full Review

  Overall, Star Wars Adventures: Smuggler's Run is a nice adventure which doesnt get too swept up in canon, and remembers to have fun. The story by Rucka is exciting. The adaptation by Worley is brilliant. The art by the creative team is gorgeous. Altogether, Star Wars Adventures: Smuggler's Run is a story that is escapism at its finest. Read Full Review

  But Why Tho? - Jason Flatt

  Dec 23, 2020

  Star Wars Adventures: Smuggler's Run is nothing special. This type of Han Solo story feels like it has been told repeatedly in recent years, and while this is an adaptation of a 2015 novel, it's not this aspect that causes the story to feel trite. Read Full Review
