So the mysterious but underutilized First Order stormtrooper commanding officer from The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi gets her very own title. What do we learn about her? Not much, really.While the artwork is good - there are some excellently detailed two-page spreads, one of which shows squadrons of X-Wings vs. TIE fighters in a dogfight - the shallow main story is essentially one long chase with action scenes. Set between the aforementioned movies, the terse Phasma is on a mission after "th...
Not that interesting but still a lot more interesting than Phasma in the movies (which wasn't that difficult to achieve to be honest).
Escaping the garbage chute before Starkiller Base blows up? Piece of cake!Covering her tracks and disposing of the only person who knew her role in the destruction of the First Order superweapon? That's where the fun begins.Phasma must follow the officer who knows her terrible secret, and as always, she will do anything to ensure her survival, much as we previously read in the "Phasma" novel by Delilah S. Dawson.In fact, the ordeal she must endure in this particular mission, will make her rememb...
This mostly exists to explain what happened to Captain Phasma after she was unceremoniously dumped into the trash compactor at the end of "The Force Awakens." The action in the comic is cool but the story ultimately feels pretty inconsequential. Given the way they treated Captain Phasma in "The Last Jedi", that should come as no surprise. If you like Captain Phasma, her novel "Phasma" is amazing and is one of the best of the new canon, IMHO.
So Actually I just read issue 1 but this is all that's on goodreads. Kelly is one of my favourite writers and I'm so happy that Marvel hired her to do a Phasma comic. I loved Captain Phasma and thought she was dreadfully underused in the film, so hopefully all the promotion of her before the next film will lead to Gwendoline getting more to do this time! But I really loved this comic. For one thing the art work was stunning, so much better than what I'd normally expect from Marvel, the layout an...
Phasma eliminating her tracks! This TPB edition collects "Star Wars: Captain Phasma" #1-4.Creative Team:Writer: Kelly ThompsonIllustrator: Marco Checchetto MERCILESS SURVIVOR This comic book miniseries accounts how Captain Phasma erased her forced involment in the destruction of the Starkiller Starbase, when she had to get down the shields of the said station having guns pointed to her.Phasma, once she escaped from the trash compactor area, she knew that she had to ensure to delete her entr
I found this a little disappointing, and would be giving it 2 stars if not for the art, because the art is amazing. This could have been done just as well in a one-shot or annual. There's not much here to have this going for 4 issues (I'm glad it wasn't even longer), because we don't even get much about Phasmas past, which I'm guessing is because that's covered in either the new novel or will be touched upon in the last Jedi.All for Phasma getting her own book, and knowing about what happened to...
2.5? Like, this is probably my least favorite comic so far but still kinds of makes me want to see Phasma alive in EPIX. She's a survivor to her very core and if she's dead it would be quite a disappointment >:C
3.5 Stars. This was a brilliantly illustrated continuation of a cold-hearted character. Captain Phasma picks up with the sliver plated Storm Trooper right where she was left off in Force Awakens...in the garbage chute. Phasma doesn't let a little trash stop her though...she sees a First Order member barely escape the wreckage and tracks him down to a remote planet alongside a female pilot. She starts a civil war on this planet only to assassinate Rivas and the Pilot and a BB unit...all to hide t...
Phasma - Evil WalksThis is Star Wars excitement at its finest: action, adventure, and imperialistic evil (showing the First Order to truly be the successor to the Galactic Empire). This is the Phasma I want to see on-screen!
I’m not gonna lie: this is a pretty strange miniseries. Rarely have I read something that has as many high highs AND low lows as this.Some of it REALLY works, especially early on: writer Kelly Thompson does an awesome job of more or less salvaging a character that disappointed a lot of people in her screen debut in “The Force Awakens.” The first issue of this four-issue miniseries is particularly effective, giving us infinitely more insight into Phasma and the way she processes things than we go...
A bit safe. The art is the stand out here. The novel on Phasma contains much more info as probably a better overall story.
It's no big surprise that a graphic novel focused on Captain Phasma is not great. What Phasma teaches Disney is that you can't create new Boba Fetts at will. Also, there's more to a compelling character than just a neat outfit. Given how quickly Phasma is defeated in both of the movies in which she appears, it's hard to take any story about her very seriously.This story starts with, to me, a kind of confusing setup. The timestamps and different narrations made it hard for me to figure out initia...
This was a really fun quick read after finishing the Phasma book from the same series. I wanted a bit more because I really fell in love with her character and story line.Knowing her origin story made this comic a more interesting read for sure. On top of that some of the panels were next level. A few times I just had to stop and marvel at all the colors and details in the cinematic shots. Overall a good read for any fans of the new trilogy.
2.5 stars. Not the best story, but it certainly sticks true to what’s been established about this character through her novel. It’s hard to keep reading stories like these when Phasma is woefully underutilized in the movies. She’s really in business for herself, and I wish we could see this Phasma in the movies.
2.5 starsLast time we saw Phasma, she was shoved in the garbage chute of the Starkiller Base after being forced to lower its defence shields, and not long before the Base was destroyed. This comic shows us how she got out of the chute and off the Base, and what happened to her between The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi.I like the idea of Phasma, but I wasn't very happy with how she was treated in TFA. The way she was forced to lower the shields and shoved in the chute was humiliating for such a...
*4.5Okay, that was a LOT cooler than I was expecting!spoilers for the new Star Wars trilogy concerning PhasmaFirst off, the art in here is AMAZING. Even if you don't care about Phasma, I'd recommend picking this up for the art alone. Absolutely stunning.Captain Phasma is one of those characters of the new movies who was dealt with horribly. Honestly, Finn's whole backstory was dealt with badly, but that's a whole other thing. Phasma was amazing when she showed up - this leader of the stormtroope...
Actual rating is 2.5 stars.This is a short mini series that takes place at the end of The Force Awakens. This tells the story how Captain Phasma survives the destruction of Starkiller Base and her direct actions because of it.Welcome to this new trilogy's Boba Fett. Let me explain. A minor character that has a small role but for some reason the fandom falls in love with that character. I have no problem with this because this is one reason why this universe is special. Fans loving the many varie...
"Book I, Part ICAPTAIN PHASMAGeneral Organa's Resistance forces have mounted a direct attack on the First Order's most powerful weapon, Starkiller Base.A small assault team consisting of Han Solo, Chewbacca, and former stormtrooper FN-2187, now a Resistance fighter known as Finn, has infiltrated the base to lower its defense shields.While Starkiller's planet-destroying superweapon is charging, Captain Phasma is forced at blaster point to lower the base's defensive shields, allowing Resistance
Captain Phasma serves to fill in the puzzling gap of Phasma’s story that is left between Force Awakens and The Last Jedi.Full disclosure…I’m not fond of retroactively added depth when it comes to multimedia worlds like Star Wars. I find it irritating to have to read a comic for a story that ultimately should have had at least some context within the original media (movie). Phasma’s role in Force Awakens was hyped and almost immediately squandered as she ends up in a trash can (basically)…and peo...
