This was just awful, not only was it a huge waste of potential but the writing was terrible and it was also so damn focused on referencing things that aren't even that good.

Seems more focused on references and cameos than telling a good story.

Yeah Luke just arbitrarily letting Adlehard go got even dumber with this issue. And uhh what's with Rebels not killing people?

Just not feeling Adlehard at all as the main villain for this at all. Luke letting him get away twice now is dumb too.

I didn't hate it, enjoy it more than the main Star Wars titles. I wish Luke killed/captured the moff. I get he is borderline OP at this point but having him confront Adelhard this early may have been a mistake, you can't kill off your main villain so just have Luke leave him alive? Could have captured him and have him busted out later or something.

Figured Luke might do an Obi-Wan mind trick kind of thing instead of cutting those dudes down from behind. I mean he just basically converted an imperial on Pillo (battlefront 2)

I guess they are cramming Luke's experiences with the Acolyes in here too, from what I read of them in Shadow of the Sith kind of wish it was elsewhere so Luke could do something more interesting.

So, what's the name of the first four parts? I tried googling and didn't find anything.

EDIT: For those wondering, it's called The Battle for Jakku Insurgency Rising.

I mean, if this was Luke in Soule's comic he could have just shielded himself and then cut that shit in half, weird going between the two.

While this run had its moments they were few and far between, most of it wasn't a good bridge between Empire and Jedi at all not to mention the weird characterizations of the OT cast.

"By the light!" That is some really un-fitting dialogue for Leia. What is this warcraft? It's like when Luke said "The Dark Side is a Hammer, and the Light Side is a Blade" in that comic also written by Charles Soule. Yeesh.

I don't think Soule really gets Luke, he's supposed to be struggling with the dark side if we look at Jedi, remember Luke force choking the gamorreans? Remember when Luke blew up Jabba's barge in Jedi? Killed the Rancor? You can either profit by this or be destoryed? He wasn't the perfect Jedi pacifist yet like Soule writes him. He didn't really have any qualms about doing either,

Don't care for Zahra at all, but other than that this was really neat.

Turns out Miranda actually died here and it was Danny imagining a nice scenario as we found out in Iron Fist 78 (2017 run). But she is back out of hell now!

Genuine question when did Luke act like Anakin at all in this issue.

Not a big fan of how Luke is drawn, but glad we are back to this sith crystal. Luke healing it to prepare for healing Vader seems very hamfisted though, and when in this comic did Luke decide he even wanted to do that?

I'm also reminded now every time I see him in black he started wearing it after that woman told him "he looked good in black". It was supposed represent maturity and mastery (with the parallels to Vader's colour scheme as well) not vanity. Boggles the mind as to what Soule was thinking with that.

Eh I enjoyed this. I liked the JLA run just before Death of Superman so its interesting to see Fire and Ice in Clark's old stomping grounds.

Am I missing something? Why is Luke so offended at this particular time about killing? He killed plenty of people in Return of the Jedi before he chilled out. "You can either profit by this, or be destroyed" *blows everyone up*. We went from Luke being written like pre ESB to now Post Rotj
