The art is beautiful and the story propulsive. what more could you want? Another great Star Wars comic to tide you over until the new movie.

I feel like this comic is best read as a companion piece to the Phasma novel. They work well together. The comic hints at things character-wise for Phasma that the novel has more time to explore in-depth. The artwork is gorgeous. I especially like some of the design work here, too, as with Phasma's disguise. the story is a quick one, but I thought it was a lot of fun and had a good amount of energy to it.

The art is stunning. Phasma is a jerk. I liked Pilot and the new aliens. If you’re really jumping at the bit to know how Phasma got out of the trash compactor after episode VII, pick this up... otherwise don’t bother.

Seriously, this character is a fraud. They wanted us believe that Phasma is some key character, but it’s not. Only hype.

The artwork in this is STUNNING, but unfortunately the same can not be said for the story. There are some good ideas --- Phasma is hunting down the few people who know she is responsible for lowering the shields on Starkiller base, and leading it to its doom. Sounds like a fun time, in theory. But the plot involves sea monsters and random characters who are there with no context. I had no idea what was happening or why for most of the time.
The story is trying to redeem Phasma and make her into the badass character she seemed to be before she turned out to be kinda lame in TFA. I wish it had gotten there.
But still, this is worth reading for the art alone.

I'm really enjoying the different Star Wars comics. I think i have liked the "main" story lines better, but the offshoots are still entertaining.
I would definitely recommend them to fans!

A friend bought this for me around the time it first came out, which felt like a joke but has ironically proved another piece of evidence as to why I feel Star Wars is broken. This is a really well drawn comic, fleshing out in interesting ways a character whose only on-screen purpose has been to suffer two unceremonious deaths. However, because of that, it feels pointless. Why spend all this paper fleshing out a character who is of no importance to the Star Wars story at all? It smacks of "people liked this character's design, we should fill her story in", except the creatives knew she wasn't actually important enough for the films. I feel myself rambling, but the TL:DR is, it's a cool comic but wasted on a pointless character.
