Another great issue. Great to see Boba Fett in action. I like the Valance bit he get his butt kicked alot. This goes straight into the next story arc. Like the rest of the issues great artwork. The story is coming together it will be interesting to see what happens next.
Other than that...well, I think all interest I had in this series drained away with #4, now I'm honestly just reading this as I'm a completionist and I have every other canon Star Wars comic.
But, really, this is bad. It's hard to follow. The dialogue is terrible. Characters just appear out of nowhere and we're supposed to know who they are. But we don't. We don't know who they are or what's going on. It's just a mess. And, honestly, at this point I hate Valance. He's an obscure character from the original Marvel run someone brought back because they thought he was cool, but pretty much anyone else would be more interesting. A gonk droid would be more interesting. And having him fight Boba Fett doesn't make him more interesting, because the only thing that would be interesting would be to have a definitive victor, and that can't be Fett because then Valance would be dead, and it can't be Valance because, well, they can't kill off Fett in a comic set before RotJ, can they?
I've already wasted too many words talking about this comic.
Badly written. Badly paced. It’s an absolute mess with random time jumps with no explanation, characters who appear and disappear at will and seemingly no coherent story at all. So bad it hurts.
