So we're 13 issues into Rebellion and no Han. I'm irritated by this. I like some of new characters and some of ones from empire, but we could still have Han in their also.

To be fair, if you count both Empire and Rebellion, Han hasn't been in this continuing series for a while. From what I can see, he hasn't shown his face since "Idiot's Array". Must be doing something else for the Rebellion. He sure isn't paying Jabba off.

Perhaps he'll show up in Vector and shoot a Sith Lord in the back. It would be good practice for him.

He's probably got quite enough to do in the Marvel comics.

So does everyone else, but they're still getting action.

Han is always getting neglected these days by the EU. In the comics it's all soldier stuff all the time, in the books it's all Jedi, all the time. Don't get me wrong Jedi stuff is awesome, but let's not forget Han was a big part of the OT, too.

Han's going to be in the Vector arc of Rebellion, I do believe.

He really should be, you can't have a huge star wars event that takes place during han's life time and not have him in it.

Hey, I've totally missed Han. He hasn't been around since mid Empire or something? And his last DH arc was kinda lame as I remember.

Though I've quite enjoyed Rebellion so far, it is time he appeared again...Just in time for the comic to stop. tongue

I think its partially the fault of having all these big, year-long arcs. The arcs usually tell good stories, and the central focus keeps the story on track, but it also doesn't allow for characters like Han to show up much. And I remember reading Han's last comic apperance a while ago and... he ended up looking stupid, didn't he (?), so not exactly a nice last appearance. I know he'll show up in Rebellion's Vector arc, but that's still a few months away. And the books are all about Jedi and Skywalkers, and Han mainly seems to suffer (emotionally) these days, what with disowning his last living son a few times.

I wish that comment in a previous Rebellion issue about Han not knowing Leia's in danger would be a hint, but if so, it hasn't been carried through yet, unfortunately. Though I missed Rebellion's last issue as my comic shop sold out, and I'm avoiding Wookieepedia at the moment due to spoilers.

Oh goodie, another Solo adventure. Are these handful of movie names all the heroes the Rebs had? Can we not be permitted to see new faces?

My utilisation of complex locution to ask what's more pathetic, fans who worship their
movie actors, or the actors who couldn't give a damn, is more a reflection of my own
superincumbent mental actuity than any circumscribed lexicon. Don't you agree?

How much more Han do you need anyway?

More Ahakista Gambit-style stories for you, then?
