Pretty good ending to this arc. Can't wait to see where the next one goes, especially given the ending to this one. Queen Trios is becoming a really interesting character. I can only assume she will eventually die in these comics because she doesn't show up in the movies or any stories set in the (to my knowledge, at least). I bet that'll be really cool to see go down, possibly sooner rather than later.

The story felt a bit rushed and way too familiar. Whilst the writing may have been lazy the art has actually improved, Salvador Larroca actually did a half decent job this issue!

The Mutiny of Mon Cala story arc has been one of the very best so far within this 75-issue Star Wars comic book marathon.

Absolutely loved it. Some of the best space battles you'll find in a comic are found here within issue #49.

A wonderfully done ending/closure comic, that connects right into a new story arc that seems very promising!

Fin de arco y gran sorpresa final que si hubiera estado atento hubiera podido adivinar, pero a veces prefiero ser un lector distraído, me llevo gratas sorpresas. Un buen número que te deja con ganas d más.

I thought I had it figured out by the last issue. I am glad I was wrong. This was quite interesting, without being spectacular. Expecting great stories starting at #50!

A solid end to an arc, though I saw the ending coming a mile away.

That’s more like it. Strong story, great action scenes, some cool references to the Star Wars lore... best issue of the series by far.

Wow! Excellent ending to this story arc and that final cliffhanger, just amazing. Didn’t see that coming at all
