THE KNIGHTS OF REN BREAK INTO VADER’S CASTLE ON MUSTAFAR! Mike delves into the fourth batch of Crimson Reign comics, where the infamous Knights Of Ren (& their leader before Kylo) attempt to steal a key from Darth Vader while the Crimson Dawn conspiracy continues to plunge the galaxy into chaos. Plus, the Bounty Hunters crew try to escape a horde of Unbroken Clan loyalists, Vader probes Sabé & Ochi about Crimson Dawn, Commander Zahra makes a daring gambit against the entire Rebellion fleet and Aphra finally gets her hands on the Spark Eternal…

Join us on the first 5 issues (of 10) of their time doing a job for Jabba The Hutt where nothing seems to go right for the duo; they meet a man claiming to be Han’s father, have to work with the nefarious Greedo, Chewie gets in (another) violent confrontation with the Wookiee bounty hunter Krrsantan plus so much more! Some unexpected familiar faces also appear…
