Review: Star Wars The Battle of Jakku Insurgency Rising
Jonathan reviews the comic book ‘Star Wars The Battle of Jakku Insurgency Rising,’ which picks up right after the events of ‘Return of the Jedi.’ He discusses the theme of the New Republic dealing with remnants of the Empire, introduces the main characters including Han, Luke, Leia, and the antagonist Grand Moff Alhard. Jonathan appreciates the work of color artist Sinclair and anticipates how the 12-issue series will explore the aftermath of the galactic conflict. He also looks forward to the upcoming ties with other Star Wars media like ‘The Mandalorian’ and ‘Ahsoka.’
