Wyaaaaaa, it’s a Chewbacca (minus Han) solo comic!Set in the wake of A New Hope, everybody’s favourite Wookiee crash-lands on some backwater planet while headed back to Kashyyyk on an important personal mission. As he figures out how to get his ride working again (it’s not the Falcon), he meets Zarro, a young girl who asks for his help in freeing her dad and people from enslavement. Chewie and his laser crossbow to the rescue! About the only thing I was curious about with this Chewbacca limited

An interesting and fun backstory for a beloved film character.

I really enjoyed this one. It was a simple tale, but an action-packed one with a moving ending. The artwork was really nice too. I'd definitely be up for more of Chewbacca's solo adventures in the future if this team wanted to do a sequel.

Beautiful art. Fun star-wars setting. I love the main character (not the title character's) ability to run a bluff like WOAH. Chewy, you have a fantastic knack for finding the best disreputable people.Kinda ignored EU history and geography, which made me sulk. It didn't really do anything new, though?

A trifle on the generic side, but not bad. Chewie's temporary sidekick, Zarro, is cute and spunky, and I ended up liking her quite a bit. But she can seem a little obnoxious at the beginning. And this book absolutely doesn't do what I'd hoped it would do for Chewie. Because nobody in this book understands Wookie, he's essentially a silent character throughout. In the movies, we get a basic idea of what he's thinking because we can hear his inflection, and because he often has a translator and/or...

This just didn’t work Sure, Chewbacca is a great Star Wars character. There’s no disputing that. But the problem with him being the centre character of a comic is that he only speaks in growls. There’s no monologue; there’s no internal conflict of decision making: there’s just growls. It was silly. The plot of this was plausible enough. Chewbacca helps a load of slaves escape from a mine; it’s the sort of thing he would do. He was emotionally manipulated by a young girl, which caused him to be

Not a very good run. I didn't care for the characters, the story or art despite being a big Star Wars fan. Not having any clue what Chewbacca was saying through the whole run did not help it.

Writer Gerry Duggan and artist Phil Noto’s Marvel series “Chewbacca” is cute.Somehow, that just doesn’t seem right to say, considering we are talking about the mighty Chewbacca, only the most bad-ass Wookiee in the galaxy. “Cute” shouldn’t be a word that comes into play here.And yet it does, because this series is, well, cute. It is the first of the Marvel “Star Wars” titles to be decidedly and most specifically targeted toward little kids.I mean, the first time we see Chewbacca, he’s laying in

2.5 starsThe weakest of the new Marvel Star Wars standalone mini-series. Doesn't do much to elevate Chewie beyond his second-tier status among the original trilogy characters. A well-meaning project with moments of splashy artwork but hindered by a forgettable story.

I love Phil Noto's art and it doesn't disappoint here, but it also doesn't do anything out of the ordinary, and the story was mediocre. I do love the girl, though and wouldn't mind more stories about her.

3.5 starsA fun, action action packed, sweet story about our favourite wookie.Chewie on a mission to go home himself, crash lands on a planet and helps a young girl free her father and fellow slaves from a mine. Owning a debt that will never be repaid to Juam (who's making a deal with Imperial forces) Zarro and her father a put to work as slaves. After her dad sneaks her out, on the run Zarro crosses paths with Chewie. After hearing her story, he remembers himself being captured, and decides to h...

"But before you go . . . you're gonna help me, right?" -- Zarro to ChewieHere's probably the most unlikely supporting character from that galaxy far, far away to receive a starring role in Marvel's 'SW' graphic novel series. (Really, how much can be done, dialogue-wise, when the vocabulary of the "walking carpet" is limited to guttural variations of "HRAAAGARAAA" or "WHGRRAAAAA"?) Chewbacca is good to have on hand for his skills as the Falcon's co-pilot, and he can certainly handle himself in an...

A decent but not great story. Then again it's hard to write a character no one understands. Zarro, his sidekick for this series, really makes the book. She's witty and sharp as a tack, which is exactly the type of character Duggan excels at writing.

Another solo (pun not intended) mini-series from SW universe that takes place right after Battle of Yavin.Chewbacca is on a personal mission and crashlands on some planet where he meets a local girl. Her people were enslaved by some ugly piece of turd and she asks Chewie for help. And this is how a fast-paced action adventure with growling hairy dude starts. Story-wise it's nothing special and you can probably skip it but the art is really nice.

A lot of fun - a surprise seeing Chewbacca without Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon, but that finds a way to make it more fun.

Just not a fan of Duggans writing. I guess its also hard to tell a story when your main character doesnt speak english.

*4.5I had a lot of fun with this.This comic is set between ANH and ESB, so it's very side-quest-y in nature. Chewbacca, on a mission for the Rebellion, crashes onto a planet rife with corruption. He encounters a girl looking to save her father and ends up teaming up with her on her own mission.This book sort of toes the line between being purely light-hearted and fun and being more serious. I was hesitant beforehand about how Chewbacca paired up with some random girl would work out, but this wen...

It appears that Marvel is making an effort to write comic book miniseries for just about every major Star Wars character, except for Darth Vader (which will finish his larger comic series after the 4th volume concludes) and Luke Skywalker (who got his own novel and is the main character in Jason Aaron's ongoing Star Wars comic). Gerry Duggan's Chewbacca is the most recent completed comic in that trend that has added now ongoing comics starring Poe Dameron and Han Solo. I was pretty curious as to...

2.5 StarsLet me explain this to you in Wookieespeak:Aaaaaarg Hraaa Grughh Hunnhh Hurraaaaa Hrr Hrhghahhhaaaah! Wait, why do you look so confused? No hablo Wookieespeak? Well, let me tell you a secret. Neither can I!So, when the title character speaks a language that you can't understand, what the hell do you do? The solution, my friend, is to add another character that talks way too much to compensate! In this case, it's a kid named Zarro. Zarro and her dad are slaves in a deadly mine run by gen...

*yawn*More of a Young Adult story.
