As the dust settles from the events of the previous 13 issues, Poe Dameron #14 slows things way down to deal with the fallout of the last arc’s finale, as the Resistance honors a fallen member of Black Squadron which also manages to serve up a nice goodbye for Carrie Fisher (that’s possibly changed my opinion about Leia’s role going forward in the films), while Poe and Terex learn valuable lessons about their role in their respective fights (from the powerful women in their lives)…with varying outcomes for both.

Strong writing and a few twists keep the tale exciting, but with a well-wrapped up story, it doesn’t really leave one wanting more. Continue reading “Canon Comic Review: Star Wars Annual #1”
