I do not think that there can ever be enough books about anything and I say that knowing that some of them are going to be about Pilates.The more knowledge the better seems like a solid rule of thumb, even though I have watched enough science fiction films to accept that humanity’s unchecked pursuit of learning will end with robots taking over the world.-Sarah Vowell

Star Wars: Lando Double or Nothing by Rodney Barnes (Writer), Paolo Villanelli (Artist), Andres Mossa (Colorist), VC"s Joe Caramagna (Letterer)


Kristiss is a woman from a planet, Kulgroon, taken over by the Empire. Her people turned into slave labor to work on droids all day.  She is hunting down Lando Calrissian to bring guns onto the planet and to her people in order to enact a revolution and get her people off the planet and somewhere safe.  Lando isn't really interested at first until she promises to pay off an old "acquaintance" who is now hunting him down thanks to her.

Elthree, Lando, and Kristiss split up once they reach the planet. Elthree, being a droid goes inside the building and blends in with the other droids and looks for ways to help from the inside.  Kristiss gets caught by the Empire and Lando could leave without selling her the weapons but its easier to sell her the weapons than to find another buyer so he stays to rescue her.  Lando gets caught up in some trouble of his own in the Wastelands of Kulgroon by a race of people who live there.

This is a great comic and the witty banter between Elthree and Lando really make it so.  The two of them going back and forth are so funny they make the book so worth reading.  Lando, of course, is worth reading about on his own.  The art is excellent and the storyline is amazing.  This is a wonderful book and I give it five out of five stars.
