The LEGION OF DUDES do a 45 minute long audio review (starts at about 15 minutes) of Star Wars: Invasion #2 and #3 and they like what they see.
“3 pages in and I laughed and just had to put it down and enjoy… “
“I’ve been loving this series… I want to see more.”
- LEGION OF DUDES
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?

Yep, Star Wars: Invasion #3 is out there.
For Finn Galfridian, who has already lost his family and witnessed the enslavement of his own world, this is his first taste of war — and Luke is afraid it may be the boy’s last. When face to face with the alien invaders, will Finn succumb to his anger, or follow Skywalker’s orders?
