This comic features the Scar Command, an elite stormtrooper fighting squad that is now being led by former Imperial spy Sergeant Kreel known as the Gamemaster who was the warden on the infamous smuggler's moon Nar Shaddaa. A man who answers directly to Darth Vader and who has come up against Luke Skywalker in the past.
Luke and Leia get it into their heads to steal a star destroyer in order to break a blockade covering planet Tureen VII who have been loyal to the Rebels and are paying for it with the blockade. There is no way through the blockade but if they stole a star destroyer and attacked the blockade with it, providing cover for the Rebel forces to come in after to take care of the rest of the ships, then they could break the blockade.
They attack the ship and Luke flies his ship on board the Harbinger star destroyer to help blow the engine. Everyone will have used escape pods or flown off of the ship to have gotten off the ship by then because the ship was getting ready to blow up. Instead of blowing up the ship goes to hyperspace, leaving behind an impressive explosion.
It takes two thousand to run a star destroyer but they have around two hundred. However, they aren't the only ones on board the ship. Stalking the ship is the Scar Command set on taking back the ship for the Empire. Captain Sana, Han's ex-wife is also on board helping out Luke, Leia, Han, and the gang against these unwanted guests. Also included at the beginning is a short story from the diary of Obi-Wan Kenobi about when Luke was a kid and a comic at the end dedicated to the memory of Kenny Baker who portrayed R2D2 and shows the droid having an adventure. This was an excellent comic which is what you would expect from Jason Aaron who wrote it. It lets you see life from the stormtrooper's side for a change and the plot was unique and really cool. The art was so amazing that at times I felt I was looking at a photograph. I give this book five out of five stars.
