Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #35

I highly recommend this book for fans of Star Wars and Doctor Aphra! Read Full Review

This was an all around great issue. It was fun, it moved the story along, and everything looked fantastic. The ongoing Star Wars series could learn a thing or two from Aphra. Well if it wasn't ending in a couple months, that is. Read Full Review

While there might not have been exciting action or unexpected reveals, this issue delivers all of the elements that make Aphra one of the franchise's more interesting and underutilized characters. Read Full Review

Continuation of the interesting Spin-Off that shows us another perspective in the fight of the Rebels against the Empire, where for the first time the Empire is in real danger and in the hands of Doctor Aphra are now the lives of thousands of people even Palpatine's life. Read Full Review

As we move along in this storyline, Doctor Aphra has some decent moments and some moments that just kind of fall flat for me. Everything feels like it's a bit rushed but without purpose in knowing where it wants to go and where it wants to be. There are so many great paths that the book could explore but it keeps getting tied up in the Name Characters and can't seem to escape that. It's a huge galaxy and there are so many things to riff from the books or other series to use as launching points. Spurrier continues to do well with the Tolvan/Aphra dynamic and there's some good fun and action here and there, but the propaganda side just isn't connecting and there's an air about the book that keeps me from really getting fully into it at the moment.

This is better than the previous issue, but still suffers in art, colors, and letters. The story is fantastic, with plenty of twists and turns and humor that this series has had. Every other element of the book is a letdown. Someone get this Doctor a doctor, STAT! Read Full Review

Well played Doc, glad to see that the romance is still alive as well.
