Getting used2art, now; but its stylized colours will never appeal2me. Still, again, lots of respect4originality also in that dept.; special mention4that innovative (4comix) colouring technique--what R they? H2O colours?
Easy2 4get that indeed, this (2gether w/Thrawn) was @the 4front of the Wars revival in the early 90s; prior, Wars'd Bn dead&forgotten by all but a few in my vicinity.But, how quickly did it re-emerge!

Actually, later, I found Leia 2B drawn quite decently. Story+dialogue sometimes were a tad lacking, again (YMMV, but I think the plot consistency/logic=a bit wavery). But these things all stem from comparisons w/ a rather high standard that I set4this book. I fully agree (or feel, if I'm mistaken that the consensus is thusly) that this=truly a high quality masterpiece; both of Wars, & of franchise comix. 4* or 5*?

Do enjoy story. Just a 2-fold drawback2nag about: really tired of oh-dear-this=even-worse-than-the-last-superweapon. But in NO WAY WHATSOEVER, R [spacefaring hovercraft that vacuum-clean assets off planetary surface, melt, then turn raw materials in-situ in2 new war machines], worse than Death Star (which doesn't even--Assets? WHAT surface?). Yet World Devastators R actually introduced as such; @least TWICE. Cringe!

Appended essay could B mix of authors; possibly, parts R Veitch's work?
Palpatine=drawn very well; as R Luke & Han, mostly. Leia (let alone her clothing) not so much. Wedge, I don't recognize @all.
Having grown fully used2the art (&2lesser xtent, colours), overall really do enjoy it.
Relation Han+Leia=nicely written. Byss=interesting planet, visually; Nar Shaddaa even more so, 2me.
Tech artwork reminds me of MarVanO.

Consistent+fine art indeed; but personally, not a fan (especially of some characterizations/faces & colours: 2 unrealistic, alBit only moderately dynamic).
Ewoks make background appearance, & it's actually cool 2C them defending Coruscant crash site.
Also trying2read lengthy (full-issue) essay @ end; superfluous & bland, messy, but: has interesting details. Do I detect KJA's hand in it? Weird adjectives+word choices?
