Not 100% sure, but will probably just cross the bridge to the nearest comic store (www.heroes.co.nz) and put an order in the week before or something.Harvey Mushman wrote:Where are you purchasing 'em from, Matt?

Update - given that they are pushing these Shattered Empire comics out more frequently than monthly, and the TPB will therefore be available in November, I might just wait for that rather than buying four individual issues: https://www.mightyape.co.nz/product/Sta ... ?r=1755803Harvey Mushman wrote:Where are you purchasing 'em from, Matt?

Re: Marvel Star Wars titles, 2015 onwards
Ok, here's what I've got. These are the covers for the current Marvel Star Wars comics 2015 onwards. Good reads and cannon so you get a lot of good tid bits of information.
- Star wars series is a good reliable read and does cross over for the Vader Down story this series runs parallel to Darth Vader, worth a read number two on my list.
- Princess Leia probably in my thoughts is the worst of the bunch, good if your a little girl though. feels like your going around in circles and I don't think they portray Leia as badass as she is in the movies.
- Shattered Empire was a let down, Ok but all the good parts were in the last comic.
- The big surprise of the bunch was Kanan, I really like rebels but this is more grittier, it does tie into a book I believe this would be a number three on my list.
- Chewbacca was OK sits just above Princess Leia another good run to read your daughter. feel good iron giant stuff.
- Lando was surprisingly good separate story from everything else but some good sith information.
- C3PO one shot got a lot of negativity as its revealed how he lost his arm, I enjoyed it, a little sad.
- Now the best part of the meal has got to be Darth Vader if you only have one choice this is it, some awesome information. Maybe I'm a Sith Fan but like Lando you get a bit of an insite of whats going on behind the scenes.
- I haven't yet started on Obi-Wan and Anikan or Poe Dameron.
Overall some really good artwork, I believe some compendiums are out now. Also a Han Solo series due soon.
