Luke, Leia, and Chewie head to Batuu! Unfortunately, so does Darth Vader… Can the rebels stay one step ahead of the sith lord? And how will the denizens of Black Spire Outpost react to Imperial entanglements?

Tamtel Skreej! Retired clones! Golden lichen! And Resistance recruits!

Ethan Sacks takes everyone’s favorite original trilogy heroes to my favorite vacation spot! It’s another solid adventure full of Force disturbances, aggressive negotiations, bounty hunting, and gift-giving. The Black Spire Outpost characters also join in the fun! The story also ties into the Resistance era, and it feels good to see our favorite last Jedi Rey out here on these Batuu back alleys.

This miniseries has a dual art team of Roi Mercado and Jethro Morales. The art is great, and these artists work well together. The action is explosive. The characters are expressive. The setting is vibrant. I really enjoyed the interior art, and the Phil Noto covers are the icing on the cake!

Echoes of the Empire weaves Black Spire Outpost into the stories of Luke, Han, Leia, and Vader. Like the other Ethan Sacks Galaxy’s Edge tie-ins, the series gives each of the characters their own bite-sized adventures while fitting into a larger narrative. I’m a massive Galaxy’s Edge fan, and every one of these stories that take place here always brings me a bit more enjoyment on my periodic visits. It’s gratifying to see legendary Star Wars characters interacting with the Batuu locals like Dok-Ondar, Oga Garra, Mubo, and Savi.
This comic is a must-read for Galaxy’s Edge fans ready to see some original trilogy-era adventures!
