The amazing reviews continue for Star Wars: Blood Ties Jango and Boba Fett #1.

Starting with a four-and-a-half star review and some damn fine words from COMIC BOOK RESOURCES.

“This issue is the near-perfect beginning of the story of an assassin and his son.”  “Taylor’s story summarizes every complexity in literary father-son relationships from Abraham and Isaac to Mufasa and Simba.” “Chris Scalf has poured a lot of work onto these pages, in storytelling, layout, and detail. Jango and young Boba look astonishingly like Temuera Morrison and Daniel Logan, respectively. While there has been much ballyhoo made of photo-tracing in comics, Scalf’s artwork crosses over from photo-tracing to portraiture”  “The story has “Star Wars” moments, such as when the Atzerri Traffic Control asks for proof of identification from Jango Fett. In accordance with the request, Jango gives it to them. There are holographic messages, chase scenes, and action across multiple planets, just as with all of the films. This issue, however, ends with a surprise on the final page that sets the story on its ear.”

“This is, hands down, the best of the “Star Wars” comics from Dark Horse that I have read.” - CBR

A ‘five out of five’ from, UK website, STAR WARS BOOKS.

“It must seem as if every other Star Wars comic story released recently has been written by Tom Taylor and judging by his previous stories (Invasion: Refugees, Luke Skywalker and the Treasure of the Dragonsnakes, Invasion: Rescues, The Will of Darth Vader) this is no bad thing. Just as his previous releases enthralled us with Taylor’s storytelling abilities, this new story promises to do the same.”  “Chris Scalf’s art is, quite frankly, unbelievably awe inspiring and if you have been put off reading a Star Wars comic story because of black pen lines traced around characters’ features or overuse of monotonic colours, then fear not because Scalf’s capture of near photo-realism in his paintwork doesn’t require pen lines while his colour palette is a blend of natural tones and shades. However beautiful the artwork is, the real test of any artist is their ability to capture facial expressions and in this Scalf succeeds wonderfully. Blood Ties #1 is a worthy addition to any fan’s Star Wars comics library and is particularly recommended to fans who have yet to experience Star Wars stories in comic form. “ - SWBOOKS.CO.UK

COMIC BOOK JESUS and COMIC ATTACK also have nice things to say.

Chris Scalf and I couldn’t be happier… well, until issue #2.

thing. Just as his previous releases enthralled us with Taylor’s storytelling abilities, this new story promises to do the same.
