A pretty good book about the triggering of two unknowing sleeper agents inside the Teen Titans and Outsiders teams of young super heroes. My main complaint is the ridiculous suspension of disbelief required for how both of them neglect to kill anyone on their teams when first triggered and catching them unawares, easily overpowering their teammates, only to then return with the express purpose of killing them once they've regrouped and prepared for it. I suppose there was no way around that, but it could surely have been handled in a way where it was easier, especially in the Teen Titans case, to buy it. Oh well. Otherwise a quick, fun read with some satisfyingly potent emotional repercussions.… (mehr)

Art as far as the backgrounds/landscapes/technology goes is beautiful, with the use of light being particularly noteworthy, however the character art is a bit more hit or miss.

As far as the story goes, I found the main plot involving Leia disappointing. Yeah, she's "badass", but her being a hotshot X-Wing pilot at this stage of the rebellion is distracting, and she has a annoying strop halfway through the story because Luke flirted with another woman. The Han and Vader stories were more interesting, but sadly suffered for being the sub-plots. Presumably in future issues/trades their stories get more focus, so that's something to look forward to.… (mehr)
