Married to Han (who goes flat in Veitch's hands) and with two children, Leia is torn between her role as mother and her role as Jedi warrior. While the story sometimes jumps too quickly between major scenes, Veitch does a good job of capturing the epic feel of George Lucas's masterpiece trilogy. Cam Kennedy's artwork is mixed in quality. Some of his drawings of the Millennium Falcon, hunter-killer probes, and robotic TIE-fighters seem to leap directly from the movie screen, while his human figures (especially of Han and Luke) can appear generic. Also, his style of coloring, using washes of similar colors on each page, is good for capturing moods but tends to obscure details. Despite these occasional shortcoming, this comic is recommended for one simple reason: once you start reading it, you won't be able to put it down. The other two parts of the Dark Empire trilogy include: Dark Empire II and Empire's End.--Patrick O'Kelley]]> 59137 3.54 716 34 138170 3.60 348 22 1993 236251 159307526X 9781593075262 2 <![CDATA[Star Wars: Dark Empire II 2nd Edition]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172983423m/236251.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172983423s/236251.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/236251.Star_Wars_Dark_Empire_II_2nd_Edition 3.40 129 59137 3.54 716 34 138170 3.60 348 22 1995 95394 1401210392 9781401210397 5 <![CDATA[War Stories: Volume 2]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171301412m/95394.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171301412s/95394.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/95394.War_Stories_Volume_2 4.09 46 ]]> 14965 4.18 23969 956 3960 4.14 9778 756 138170 3.60 348 22 2006 106987 0785110968 9780785110965 1 <![CDATA[The Punisher Vol. 5: Streets of Laredo]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171568985m/106987.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171568985s/106987.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/106987.The_Punisher_Vol_5_Streets_of_Laredo 4.04 26 14965 4.18 23969 956 33532 4.27 16095 573 138170 3.60 348 22 2003 850653 1569713111 9781569713112 1 <![CDATA[Death, Lies, and Treachery]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1178898914m/850653.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1178898914s/850653.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/850653.Death_Lies_and_Treachery 3.52 23 Return of the Jedi notwithstanding).

So any book or comic featuring his royal Fettness had better be good. Fortunately, our boy gets his due in this quality Dark Horse collection of three previously published comics (Bounty on Bar-Kooda, When the Fat Lady Swings, and Murder Most Foul). The story, by John Wagner of Judge Dredd fame, is by no means brilliant, but it's clever enough to rise a cut above the more schlocky Star Wars spinoff fare. What really sets this collection apart, though, are the moody colors and expert composition of Cam Kennedy (Star Wars: Dark Empire). From our favorite bounty hunter nonchalantly capping some thug without even turning around to breezing through the defenses of a H'unn's criminal stronghold, Death, Lies, and Treachery is classic Fett. --Paul Hughes

When David Balfour sets out to find his uncle, he never dreamed that he would be kidnapped — but saved from a life of slavery — and thrown from one escapade to another in the company of the fugitive, masterful swordsman Alan Breck Stewart. They meet on the brig Covenant just before they are shipwrecked off the coast of Scotland. After witnessing the murder of Colin Campbell (the notorious “Red Fox”) David makes a dramatic and extraordinary flight for his life across Scotland before he can claim his rightful inheritance.

This new adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s Kidnapped, the dramatic and epic adventure story about a seventeen-year-old desperate to secure his inheritance, brings together two creative giants from the world of graphic novels — the absolute “dream team” of artist Cam Kennedy and scriptwriter Alan Grant.]]> 138170 3.60 348 22 2007
