STAR WARS: REBELLION #11—SMALL VICTORIES PART 1 (OF 4)
JEREMY BARLOW (W), COLIN WILSON (A), and WIL GLASS (C)
On sale Dec 12
FC, 40 pages
$2.99


When a hyperdrive failure strands the flagship of the Rebel fleet deep inside enemy territory, Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia realize their misfortune could be an opportunity for the Alliance—if they undertake a mission with no chance of survival!

A riveting new story set in the months after Star Wars: A New Hope, “Small Victories” follows not just the Rebellion’s greatest heroes, but volunteers like Deena Shan who never thought the fate of the Alliance could rest in her terrified but determined hands! Courage, sacrifice, and a little bit of madness are the order of the day as a ragtag crew of Rebels make an assault on a key Imperial installation with no escape plan in sight!

Hmm, methinks that the Rebel flagship is not Home One but Rebel One.

Granted it may be a flagship, but it is not the flagship like Home One. wink

I don't mind Wilson's style, but hopefully they've got someone else to fill in who complements Jan's style a little better.

Don't get me wrong...I love a chance at more Luke and Leia stories in this era but I have been enjoying seeing Wyl, Raze, Darca, Baco, Laynara, Sardoth, Dunlan (RIP), and other obscure characters. It helps me to see the Star Wars galaxy as well...very large. Of course, I don't know how many of those characters survived. I have not yet read the final chapter in the new arc (I think it came out today but I didn't get out to purchase it) but the blurb suggests that we see some more characters bite it.

Dark Horse has been awesome as far as introducing new characters. In the past year or so we got Cade, Krayt, Sia, Roan Fel, Antares, Ganner, Talon, Nihl, Wyyrlok, Rav, Blue, Syn, Veed, Calixte, Wolf, Shado, Yage, Rus, Kol, Zayne, "The Gryph", Jarael, Camper, Lucien & friends, Rohlan/Demegal, Adasca, Jennir, Bomo, Harren, Ratty, Mezgraf, Wyl's crew, NAXY KRIFFIN SCREEGER and others that were unknown to us before. Lots of new characters. I hope that they continue to introduce others in this arc.

I dunno, after #13, I decided I really like Wilson doing Legacy.

Ah well, I'll take him where I can get him.

But-- Jeremy! I hadn't noticed. Hurray!

Because we love her. kiss So nyah.

Seriously though, I'm looking forward to getting back to the Rebellion part of Rebellion and finding out what happened to Tank, whether or not Leia will survive (just kidding) and what ramifications Wyl Tarson's betrayal will have.,

I can't figure out if I like her or hate her. I go back and forth.

I wouldn't expect that to come up until the next time Rob Williams is writing, personally.
