My Brother, My Enemy (Star Wars: Rebellion, Vol. 1)
As the history of the Star Wars universe becomes more crowded, writers scramble to find new time periods and characters to focus on. In the first volume of this new series, set just after Luke Skywalker joins the rebellion, Luke learns that one of his childhood friends, an officer for the Empire, wants to defect. Unusual moral complexity is introduced into the mix of thrilling escapes and space battles, which are well realized in the expressive and highly detailed art. The sense of joining a story already in progress may confuse some readers, but the panopoly of spies, heroes, thrills, and action will sweep most into that galaxy far, far away. Karp, Jesse
