The Story for STAR WARS: Hyperspace Stories #4

Poe, BB-8, and a clanker are on a mission to bring the First Order’s code breaker to the Resistance. However, said codebreaker is more than just a thing, and Poe is not about to let the First Order get her back. Fortunately, he can fly anything. The First Order doesn’t easily let things go, so the escape is anything but seamless. While we wrap up with an unexpected ending, it’s an ending that sheds more light on certain characters from the sequels.

The Art

This issue showcased quite a bit of flying in space action. Which gave us some gorgeous panels. From detailed ships to beautiful backdrops, and kickass explosions. STAR WARS: Hyperspace Stories was absolute eye candy. All while still showcasing the emotions of our characters. A very important aspect of this story.

Overall Grade: 8.5/10

Every Star Wars comic or novel takes us to new places, and introduces us to new characters. Thereby making this galaxy far far away that much bigger. All while also making it more human, relatable, and amazing. STAR WARS: Hyperspace Stories, Codebreaker, did just that. We met a new face, and got to see a glimpse of why Poe and Leia’s relationship is so special. MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU!
