Star Wars: Han Solo - Hunt For The Falcon

by Rodney Barnes, Ramon Rosanas (Illustrator)

In the time before The Force Awakens, where is the Millennium Falcon?!

Less than satisfied with a settled life, Han Solo lands on the idea of reclaiming the Falcon and returning to a life of adventure. The problem is, he can’t find it! After enlisting a less than enthusiastic Chewbacca, the duo embarks upon a quest to reclaim the greatest ship in the galaxy. Standing in their way are a laundry list of rogues who have staked a claim to the Millennium Falcon as well — like Ducain, the villainous scoundrel who stole it!

About the author

Rodney L Barnes has had the privilege to accomplish so much in a short time on Earth. At the age of forty-two and surviving a major traumatic brain injury, writing and publishing the book, My Miracle outlines and talks about experiences he had undergone that might contribute to the events in your life. From past to present, he had learned how to accept what life has to offer, not struggle with life. He was raised on the principles of ordinary life, take nothing for granted! Rodney now clearly understands those principles of living because of his development. Through events of his life, the accident, coma, and relearning life at twenty-one years of age, he has to give all these accomplishments to the Lord Jesus Christ. Rodney is praying for his book to get into the hands of people who need a source of comfort, strength, or knowledge to learn more how strong and powerful Jesus Christ is and can be. Visit him at Facebook.com/mymiraclethemovie and together, we all can help each other understand the meaning of life.

I've been buying this series as single issues as they came out but since it was only a five issue limited series, I decided to wait until I had them all to read. Sadly, 'Hunt for the Falcon' ended up not being the most exciting 'Star Wars' series that I have read. Every scene felt rushed and we never got any time to truly sit in a moment, whether it was full of action or emotional reflection. It was always on to the next one as soon as possible.

The comics excel when they focus on why Han is away from his family, how he doesn't feel like himself when he isn't in space going on adventures and how he has isolated himself from Leia and Ben. The flashbacks were wonderful, I'm always looking for anything to fill in gaps in Ben Solo's early life, and were definitely a highlight for me. However, the actual adventure with Han and Chewie looking for the Falcon just wasn't that interesting. We know they aren't going to find it because of the events of 'The Force Awakens' and we know there are no real stakes.

Ugh, I hate writing negative reviews, but this really is not worth your time. I say that as a staunch supporter of the Disney Era of Star Wars. In fact, unless you have to read everything, avoid one. It contradicts something we see in The Force Awakens. I won't mention it, so as to avoid spoilers in this review, but it totally ruined this mini-series for me. You do get a little insight into Han's relationship with Leia and Ben at this point in the timeline, but nothing you couldn't have already deduced from the films.

My rating: 2 Stars

What are we even doing? We did not need a 5 issue mini for Han to be in the same place at the end that he was in the beginning. Because, spoiler, he doesn’t find the Falcon until episode 7.

Can Marvel please make some good Star Wars comics this year?

It's...maudlin. Not what one want's in a comic.
