Most Wanted, written by Rae Carson, is a young adult novel focusing on Han Solo and Qi’ra prior to the events of Solo: A Star Wars Story. It’s a well-written, fast paced book that gives Qi’ra her due, diving deep into what makes her tick, while focusing more on the idealistic younger Han than the film ever did.

Even drenched from the ocean’s spray, nothing could drown out my enthusiasm as we boated out into the wild sea. Swelling in my ears was “Rey’s Theme,” along with “Jedi Steps,” though no one was playing the tunes aloud. Alongside me, besides a handful of strangers and the driver, were two of my best friends, found at a Star Wars convention three years prior. On the horizon, an ancient, mysterious island, Skellig Michael, which I’ve only seen in my dreams (and a film or two), the culmination of our own long and nearly 100% cancelled journey to Ahch-To. Here’s the tale of the Mynocks’ Adventure to Ireland: Ahch-To or Bust. Continue reading “Ahch-To Or Bust: The Mynocks’ Adventure Across Ireland”

Lando – Double or Nothing issue #1, written by Rodney Barnes, with art from Paolo Villanelli and Andres Mossa, is the beginning of a 5-issue miniseries focusing on a Lando and L3 adventure pre-Solo: A Star Wars Story. If the rest of the mini can keep the sense of fun and pitch-perfect Lando, readers could be in for quite the treat. Continue reading “Canon Comic Review: Lando – Double or Nothing #1”

Solo: A Star Wars Story, written by Jon and Lawrence Kasdan, directed by Ron Howard, is an exciting, fun, adventure romp across the seedier parts of the galaxy, with a great cast that includes Alden Ehrenreich owning the role, a few pleasant surprises, and delightful winks and nods to other parts of the saga. It ends up being hampered by a rough beginning and some questionable decisions which affect investment, but despite its shortcomings, overall it can still be quite enjoyable.

Ever since the full trailer in early April, we’ve gotten a steady stream of new morsels of footage from Solo: A Star Wars Story in various TV spots. However, the most intriguing new footage yet comes from a featurette released over Infinity War weekend, “Becoming Solo,” which talks with Donald Glover (Lando), Lawrence Kasdan (writer), Alden Ehrenreich (Han himself), Emilia Clarke (Qi’ra), and Ron Howard (director) about the Han Solo we’ll meet in Solo.
