STAR WARS LEGACY GRAPHIC NOVEL SERIES

But this is also the book's downfall, because ultimately Ania Solo's past bears little on Prisoner (though it's foreshadowed it may factor in to the next volume) those who read to the end hoping for a definitive connection between this series and Star Wars classic will be disappointed.ДЄnia Solo, Dark Horse's advertising copy for Prisoners will tell you, is the great-great granddaughter of Han Solo and Princess Leia Organa. Seeing what Ania will do, and spotting the little 'Solo' references throughout the story, is what drove me for much of this tale. It helps considerably that the book stars one Ania Solo, and advertising for this volume makes sure the reader understands her connection to Solos past. It takes a little re-reading to get straight the Imperial Court versus the Jedi Council and Galactic Alliance, but once that's done, Prisoner settles down to a story of a kid on a backwoods world whose life is upturned by the battles of Jedis and Sith, a la A New Hope, and from there Prisoner is a fairly accessible Star Wars book. More familiar trappings are here and as such I was more comfortable with the story. 1: Prisoner of the Floating World is a different beast, the first Star Wars comic I've read now set in Star Wars's future. Though neither Lost Tribe of the Sith nor Dawn of the Jedi were bad stories, my interest is not as focused when the characters aren't familiar or even the familiar trappings of Jedis versus the Sith or the Empire aren't present, as was the case in these stories set in Star Wars's ancient past.

If you're going to tell me a Star Wars story, let's have it star Luke, Leia, and Han, please, or even the prequel trilogy characters in Clone Wars. As I've acknowledged before, I'm something of a Star Wars traditionalist.
