I love me some vicious monsters, so putting a ferocious giant pangolin marked with glowing runes on the cover grabbed me. I really like Caspar Wijngaard's style (especially his coloring), so I'm looking forward to this.

 

Ooo, I like Caspar's stuff! Also, the open collar on this shirt is a blessing for Aphra cosplayers. It's not easy keeping the collar of a regular polo shirt upright all day.

 

This issue just got an extra 8 pages added!

 

Interior art lookin' good...

 

She needs to appear on TV/Film such an awesome and powerful character.

 

yayyy monsters!

 

Preview is up.

Winloss' spider rig is pretty cool. Would be fun for hiking and climbing.

TFA minor character mention:

Spoiler

King Prana, who hired Han Solo to collect rathtars for his personal zoo.

 

Spoiler

Great to have another interspecies romance other than with Twi'leks in the GFFA, hope they won't get killed. For a moment, I thought the woman in the hologram was Sabine because of the hairstyle but then Winloss called her Aphra, I guess it's another disguise? Also great art so far but I always liked the art in this series, even in the early issues.

Personally I love this variant.
