First Star Wars: Invasion #3 Reviews (Updated)
The reaction to Star Wars: Invasion #3 has been great, with fans seeming very happy with the latest issue, and the first reviews have surfaced. The first over at NJOE.COM…
“Invasion issue 3 is 22 action-packed pages!” “This issue kept moving and wouldn’t let you go until the very end.”
- NJOE.COM
You can read the rest here (spoilers).
While Star Wars Invasion #3 is one of three ‘Weekly Winners’ over at Comic Book Jesus.
“Taylor gives enough info about the Vong for curious readers, and starts to make serious strides in showcasing the menace of the creepy race. Plus, in the few pages that reveal Skywalker’s relationship with the apprentice Finn Galfridian, Taylor lays hints that he’s going slightly beyond the typical SW mentor/protege arc that we’ve seen many times before.”

There’s another review over at ComicList
“Luke as a full Jedi Master is just so much cooler than the Luke from the movies. He doesn’t come off as a wise master but he sure knows how to be a badass when it’s needed. The comic is also great when it presents the emotional roller coaster that Finn is on. He’s just started his training and he is trying to get a handle on who he is and how he feels about everything. This comic really bolsters Luke and Finn very well.”
- ComicList
“I think Finn is a good, new character for the Star Wars universe. I think its the way Tom Taylor has been writing him so far is what really has me connected to this series.”

“Invasion #3 sees things get turned up a notch in terms of action and excitement. There are some big story shocks, some revelations about the moral character of certain people, some big explosions and plenty of cool Jedi action from Luke Skywalker.” “9 out of 10.”
There’s also a 4 star staff review over at Things From Another World.
Thanks to all of the people who’ve taken the time to leave a personal message on the website or drop me an email. Colin and I have a lot more in store. Finn has pieces missing… what does it all mean?

Thank you Tom Taylor, you have and Colin Wilson have produced one of the greatest comics ever. Keep going strong.
Thank you Kevin! These are just the set up stories. The next story arc we aim to knock it out of the park! Keep reading and drop by any time.
Just set up stories!?!? Your killing me with anticipation. By the way, the Finn mystery is one of the coolest ideas I’ve ever heard of. I never get tired of rereading these comics. You and Colin Wilson are one the greatest comic book teams ever.
Thanks for the link to our review Tom, and I have to admit the Finn Mystery has me hooked.
Thanks for the positive review Corax. From the boards, it sounds like most people over at NJOE are happy so far.
Thanks Scioli. I might have to reread it myself.
Hi Tom. I don’t really read comics, the only one I usually get is Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but I picked up Invasion #2 just to browse and was so impressed with that I bought issue 1 and 2. I just got Issue 3 yesterday and it was great. Thanks for making a great comic, can’t wait to read more.
Glad you liked it Amber. Cheers for picking it up. And I like the Buffy comics too.
