Great classic Star Wars comics fun.

X-Wing Rogue Squadron is supposed to be about the Rebel Alliance’s badass group of pilots. Too bad you won’t get that here.Ok maybe that’s a bit sarcastic, since this volume does include stories about Wedge, Tycho, Jansen, and a few others who populate the ranks of Rogue Squadron. However, the stories included here in X-Wing Rogue Squadron don’t really tell any great tales or show how amazing this group is. So they can shoot down tie fighters? Han and Lando and about 20 other pilots did that mul...

The artwork in the Rogue Leader storyline drove me crazy. I spent a good chunk of one issue thinking Wedge was Han Solo. Nice to see "Targeter" get some special agent screentime in the first Rogue Squadron story arc; the artwork picks up in the second arc. I'm not terribly attached to any if the characters so far besides Wedge. On to the next.

I have this on the Dark Horse app, which doesn't have the page numbers in it, so I'll be going off the app # if cite anything.I loved that there was a diagram of an X-Wing from the start. Rogue LeaderThe cover art is amazing. Actually, all the art is breathtaking. The details and colours (and clarity, though I don't know if that's the app or the art) draw me in with their accuracy and vibrancy. The purple lightning around the TIEs was pretty cool too. It's because it's done by Michael Atiyeh. I

3 sides stories from X Wing Rogue Squadron. The art was good, and the story though not excellent but good enough to read.

The first story ends with the text: "We've have a fleet to protect, and a galaxy to inspire." - I wonder if the whole Omnibus series has been compiled with that quality of editing. It kind of ruined the ending for me.I stopped reading after that first story. Why should I put the effort into reading this book when it's obvious the people at Darkhorse didn't?My copy didn't contain any of the original covers, or even any information about the stories. The idea behind this omnibus series is nice: co...

Rogue Squadron is the elite dogfighting force in the Rebel Alliance. The best of the best. Basically the Top Gun-trained crew. After the defeat of the Galactic Empire with the destruction of the second Death Star, things don't slow down for them. The Empire is still very much alive, just segmented. And Rogue Squadron is trying to ferret them out and defeat them so the Empire can never rise again. This collected volume contains 13 issues of the comic as published by Dark Horse Comics. That's 280

This was kind of a strange collection. It had a few new issues called Rogue Leader, which were great, and then a bunch of the late 90s Dark Horse Rogue Squadron comics, two story arcs to be exact. All in all they were pretty good once you got into the story, but squashing those two unrelated series together into one volume like they were a collection was just weird.

This isn’t the book I read but I can’t seem to find the actual one 🤔

Pretty good read. I am drawn more to the Jedi side of the Star Wars world so I think that is why I don't care as much about this as I would. Over all very enjoyable.

I like these characters - and I by and large liked this as well. It seemed to drag a little in some places - but it was easy to come back to.

After getting burned five or six times, I pay little attention to what's going on in the Star Wars Extended Universe. Except when it comes to X-Wings. Yes, my favorite Star Wars character, in the entirety of the canon, is Wedge Antilles. And yet I'd never gotten around to reading the X-Wing comics. This was very, very bad of me, and I'm trying to fix it now.The Omnibus collects three of the X-Wing miniseries, plus a character guide to the series. They're all set very, very shortly after the even...

The first two stories here, Rogue Leader and The Rebel Opposition, are a bit average. It was a bit of a struggle to get through them. The third, though, The Phantom Affair, is a huge improvement in every regard - plot, script, art, lettering, the works! All those things combine to leave it looking more like a French album than a mid-nineties Dark Horse comic. One of the things for which I was most grateful in the third story was that distinguishing between the human members of the team finally b...

Solid writing and art direction across the board here.

3 distinct tales and 3 distinct and different styles of art. It was workmanlike and good enough for the most part as opposed to the stunning you get in some comics. I do not want to damn it with faint praise however and these were clearly comics written and produced to more punishing schedules. They are symptomatic of the times in which they were produced.Some of the designs took me out of the stories. In the first there was a decision to dress one character like Han. Like they did Lando at the

I feel like there are going to be a lot of 3-star ratings in all of the Omnibus titles. They're fun Star Wars books if that sort of thing appeals, but the ones I have read thus far aren't anything to write home about. They aren't even canon anymore, so reading these doesn't even catch you up with the lore before the onslaught of upcoming movies and other media Disney is putting out. But they are good and fun and omg omnibus editions are the best way to read comics.This isn't really a review, but...

Wish I would've read this series first, as this takes place immediately after Endor. (view spoiler)[Pour one out for Ten Numb, I was surprised he didn't make it, even knowing he isn't in later books. (hide spoiler)] We get some Wedge backstory, specifically how his parents died (which was weird to read the name Jagged, as I associate it more with the grandson named after him).

Pretty "meh" and could use some better editing...

I read the X-Wing series of 9 books years ago but never read the comics. Spotting this in a library, I thought it was a good opportunity to see what I was missing out on. Turns out I was missing quite a bit! While the book series starts 2 and a half years after Endor, this starts just after the big battle. The first story was written in 2005 but the other two in the mid-90s(last two Michael A Stackpole stories). The first story isn't up to the standard of the last two but its still all great fun...

Read the first issue. Not feeling it right now, might try again some other time.
