Catching Up To The Past: Star Wars: REBEL HEIST trade paperback

STAR WARS: REBEL HEIST trade paperback  (Dark Horse Comics, October 2014)  Script: Matt Kindt.  Pencils: Marco Castiello.  Inks: Dan Parsons. Colors: Gabe Eltaeb. Letters:  Michael Heisler


from the Goodreads summary . . . . ..

 

The Rebel Alliance's newest recruits are teamed with its greatest heroes to hatch a plot and pull off a heist right under the noses of the Empire's finest. Can Han Solo, Princess Leia, and others live up to their legends, or will they be found to have feet of clay? Or, is it possible, that their most obvious weaknesses might also be their greatest strengths?

 

Matt Kindt, the acclaimed author of MIND MGMT and 3 Story, and artist Marco Castiello of Halo: Initiation, step into the Star Wars galaxy to weave a tale of danger, intrigue, and outrageous misdirection.

 

Collecting: Star Wars: Rebel Heist 1-4 

 

My review on the Goodreads website . . . . .

 

Among the plethora of Star Wars comics, this is one of the better ones. Matt Kindt is a skilled comics writer who knows how to spin an engaging tale. 

 

This one spotlights the four main characters of Star Wars: A New Hope (Han Solo, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, and Luke Skywalker) in separate adventures that take place between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. They are all fulfilling different assignments of the same mission, which Kind weaves together in the final chapter. 

 

Marco Castiello's art is exquisitely detailed, with great action scenes and good facial expressions on the close-ups. This one is a winner.
