Star Wars #16



Written by Jason Aaron

Released Feb 17, 2016

   Darth Vader's secret weapon specialist Dr. Aphra has been captured by Princess Leia and the rebellion. As the ship they're on comes under fire for failing to identify themselves, Dr. Aphra escapes her cuffs but is luckily recaptured thanks to the smuggler Sana Starros gaining the upper hand. The ship cruises towards the massive Sunspot Prison, where after attempts to debrief her continue to fail, Aphra tries to bribe Sana to help her escape which also proves unsuccessful. 
   Meanwhile Luke and Han Solo are supposed to be buying supplies with some rebellion money, but Han decides to gamble with it to try and double it. They of course lose everything and end up running for their lives. Han tells Luke they could just find something else that needs smuggling to get the money back and during the discussion, it comes out that the 60,000 credits on Luke's head is more than what Han's is going for. The book ends with the prison they're holding Dr Aphra being breached, and armed terrorists rushing in towards Leia and Starros to rescue her. Will their raid be successful? We'll apparently have to check out the next issue to find out.
