    This chapter was great, Vader now has his resources.
    Can't wait to read the next part. I recommend this graphic novel for all star wars fans

    This series of comics I have been finding highly enjoyable. The plot is interesting and the art work is some of the best I've seen so far in any star wars comic

    There is surprisingly not much of Vader in this issue. For the most part the focus of the issue is on Aphra as she leads a band of Bounty Hunters to still a fortune of confiscated drug money from an Imperial ship, money that Vader had confiscated in the last issue.

    Vader appears in the second half, revealing he was the mastermind of the heist (obviously). He then goes back to the fleet where he and his new rivals for the position of the Emperor's right hand are given assignments by Tagge. Vader's is to investigate the very theft he just orchestrated. To complicate matters he is assigned a new observer, one vetted by the Emperor himself.

    I like the overall comic, but this particular issue needed more of Vader. I also don't buy into the droid archaeologist character. Worth getting if you are reading the series. Spoiler review in the the link.

    It would be nice to have a Donald Trump-esque executive in the new Star Wars franchise because he "wouldn't have time to be politically correct" and the tween archaeologist wouldn't exist. If you're going to introduce more female characters at least make them overtly intelligent, sophisticated, and strong like Leia or Mon Mothra; characters who fit more into the war ravaged galaxy of Star Wars. -Think female Russian snipers during the battle of Stalingrad, less New Girl.
