Jyn Erso is separated from her father at a young age when the Empire kidnaps him to go and work on the Death Star. Her mother is killed in the process. She is raised by Saw Gerrera a member of the Rebel Alliance who leaves her when she is sixteen. Jyn has been arrested and is in Imperial hands.
An Imperial pilot arrives on the doorstep of the Resistance saying he has a message for Saw Gerrera and he was sent by Gallen Erso that what the Empire has been working on is a planet killer. The job is to get Jyn Erso out of prison so Captain Casian Andor and the robot KayToo (K2SO) go to break her out and she resists KayToo's attempts to help her until he forces her to go. They need her to get them through the door to Saw's encampment. They tell her she'll go free if she helps them.
They run into trouble with Imperial Guards and the Kyber Chrystal watchers Chirrut and Baze help them by getting rid of the Guards. Jyn gets them into see Saw who is interrogating the pilot. He has a message from Galen who says that he slipped in a defect into the design of the Death Star in the reactor module that would blow it up to bits. But they need to go to Scarif to get the plans to see where to drop the bomb. The Empire has decided to test the Death Star on the city they are in so they must head out quickly. In the Imperial ship, the pilot stole they leave with Captain Andor, KayToo, the pilot, Chirrut, Baze, and Jyn.
They head to Yavin 4 to the Rebellion Base to talk to the leaders about Gallen's message and what to do about it. The different people argue and eventually, they come to a consensus that they shouldn't try to go and get the plans. But the group from Jedha believes they should and plans on going anyway. Some of the soldiers agree to go with them. They decide to name their ship Rogue One and take the Imperial ship. Admiral Raddus sends troops along to help them when he finds out they've gone.
At the end of this comic is another comic that tells the story of how Captain Andor met KayToo and how he came to reprogram him while on a mission. Jyn is a tortured young woman who loses her family all for the Rebellion cause and yet still fights for this cause because it's the right thing to do. Captain Andor has a special relationship with the amazing KayToo who speaks its mind and Andor has to make hard decisions. This book is filled with very interesting characters that won't all make it to the end. I loved this comic and give it five out of five stars.
