As a whole I think this concept worked extremely well. I found each of the stories to be interesting, highlighting features not only about Chewbacca himself but also about the people telling the stories. After reading these stories, I find myself feeling Chewie's loss much more keenly than before. Perhaps it's because we never before really got into his head, or saw things from his point of view, but these comics have breathed more life into him than all of the novels combined. The whole series is well worth picking up from your local comics store.

This issue sets up the premise and features the first two stories narrated by Mallatobuck, Chewbacca's wife, and Attichitcuk, Chewbacca's father, respectively. At first I was a little wary of these characters. But I found both these stories to be entertaining and enlightening, full of humor and heroism in equal measure. A superb start to the series. Mallatobuck - The artwork was breathtaking.
