Solo: A Star Wars Story comic #7 by Robbie Thompson

"Solo: A Star Wars Story #7" written by Robbie Thompson, illustrated by Will Sliney and Federico Blee
     Despite Enfys Nest's words, "It's the blood that brings life to something new" making me legit tear up as her presence and words always do, there was really nothing special about this issue.
     They did do a weird thing showing Han and Chewie running around the galaxy doing crazy things and being in crazy situations presumably to find out where Lando was (I'm guessing) but that was the only additional bit. There weren't any words to go along with this part so you're left to assume what it is they are doing. It seems that finding Lando was something of a trial for the pair! We see them stealing from a couple of thugs, riding a speeder bike through blaster fire, and Han hanging upside down tied to an arch! Okay, fine...I kind of want the details of this story now...
     But, I was REALLY hoping for that Jyn/Saw/Enfys epilogue but alas it was nowhere to be read. The end scene on Numidian Prime where Han wins the Falcon from Lando was a bit long and drawn out and I feel that that could've been shorter to allow for more extra material.
     There was a brilliant image of Maul as he stands before Qi'ra in the hologram with his lightsaber ignited (see below). And several other panels such as those in the fight between Dryden and Qi'ra were pretty fabulous as well (see below).
     Besides some great artwork and Enfys being awesome, there's not much to say about this issue. And it's a shame the new material they did add was not expounded upon. Oh well, maybe the next adaptation will have more interesting new material in it...one can only hope!
