Focusing on Lando as he is asked to smuggle some weapons to Petrusians by Kristiss (one of the Petrusians) so that they can get back their freedom from the Empire, this is a tale of how Lando agrees to it and helps these people here and ultimately kinda leads the rebellion on this planet to their freedom against the Stormtroopers and Empire. The great thing about this volume was it just focuses on the Lando that everyone knows, hows he having fun, then comes this girl and asks for help and he go...

Ahhh damn I had high hopes for this

I don’t know why most of the reviews are so negative so far as I thought this was a pretty good miniseries. Sure it was cheesy at times but honestly comics tend to be that way and it didn’t take away from the story. Some of the complaints I saw are that the story doesn’t have a big influence on the main canon but I don’t think that’s really the point of this book or really anything beyond the movies. They’re made to expand the universe in story in small ways that make the world more fleshed out

This is a short mini series that takes place before the Han Solo movie. In this one, an inhabitant of a planet that is controlled by the Empire seeks out Lando in hoping that he will help her smuggle guns onto her planet and providing a means for rebellion.Two stars are a little generous for my rating but the artwork was terrific so I decided to round up. The story was nothing new. I have seen this before. A planet oppressed by the Empire and they are fighting back. That is common nature for thi...

One of the best things about Ron Howard’s film “Solo: A Star Wars Story” was the casting of Donald Glover as a young Lando Calrissian. I have been a Lando fan since I was eight years old, when he was introduced in the 1980 film “The Empire Strikes Back”. Played wonderfully by Billy Dee Williams, Lando was a charismatic card-playing outlaw with more swag than he knew what to do with. This is why it has been a source of upset that Williams did not reprise his role for Episodes VII and VIII. (A mis...

3.5 / 5This was released the same year as the film Solo, therefore Lando looks like Donald Glover.It's a decent story. Lando goes from self-centred, egotistic douche to using his skills to help others in need. My personal highlight was the banter between him and L3-37, very much reminiscent of the film.Paolo Villanelli's art is pretty good, but I preferred Andres Mossa's colours.

An okay read...it felt a lot like the Solo movie though, so I can see not everyone liking this.

Funny. Lando the narcissist playboy. A lighthearted read.

Call a prequel a prequel, bruv.

Disney has chosen to make Lando Calrissian into a buffoon. I guess that's easier than making him a character of depth and narrative interest. Instead, he only needs to be comic relief. But I feel that this choice weakens his characterization in the original trilogy, and it may also put restrictions on his upcoming appearance in Episode 9. That's too bad, because Lando could have been more than this.Anyway, I found this graphic novel breezy and fun, for what it is, and the illustrations colorful

Lando: Double or Nothing! Aside from Rogue One, every single star wars movie released by Lucasfilm under disney as of late has had a comic miniseries that somehow ties into the film. Greg Rucka's Shattered Empire was meant to tie into The Force Awakens. A comic centered around Captain Phasma came out to tie into The Last Jedi. We're probably going to get one tied into The Rise of Skywalker as well, but for now we have this miniseries that ties into Solo.THE STORY: Young smuggler Lando Calrissian...

With the release of Solo to theaters, I knew we would probably get some new side adventures for those characters. Here, we see an adventure with Lando and L3-37, pre-meeting with Han.Kristiss is looking for a smuggler to get weapons to her father on the planet Kullgroon. Her people are enslaved by the Empire and are being forced to work repairing droids. All the typical hijinks are here: Lando's obsession with capes and style, L3's "droid rights" jokes and all the smoothness that a typical adven...

A decent if forgettable miniseries that docks perfectly with the Solo movie.Lando’s banter with L3 is fun but a 5 issue series should have a little more meat on its bones in my view.The art in the first issues was spectacular but gave way to some pretty rushed-looking stuff toward the end.

All of these SW mini series comics are basically the same thing. Disappointing.

A fun adventure where Lando takes up a job to smuggle guns to liberate some slaves from a world conquered by the Empire. Lando, aided by L3 and Kristiss, the daughter of the slaves leader, will have to make sure Lando gets on the surface of the planet, escape daring encounters with a debtor... or two. Together they will lead a revolution with a couple of twists that will end exactly at the start of the Solo movie.Good fun and an accurate Lando - L3 dynamic, with fantastic art.

Of the Marvel “Star Wars” miniseries that have been released, I’ve been mostly mixed – even leaning slightly negative - with the majority of them, with one or two notable exceptions (the first “Lando” miniseries, “Princess Leia”). And unfortunately, their newest one, “Lando: Double or Nothing,” doesn’t do much to alter that track record. Rodney Barnes and artist Paolo Villanelli’s work here isn’t terrible, so much as it is completely bland and unmemorable – there’s nothing here that you haven’t

Lando: Double or Nothing takes place just before Solo: A Star Wars Story. This graphic novel compilation consists of "Lando: Double or nothing" Parts I-V. Kristiss' people are in trouble; they have become slaves to the Empire. Not knowing quite what to do, Kristiss learns of Lando, a smuggler who will do anything for the right price, but his price is high. Kristiss seeks Lando's help with the promise of money she doesn't exactly, have, but Lando and L3 don't know that, so they eventually decide

Yikes. Unfortunately Paolo's slick art couldn't save this... story - there barely was one. Mostly Lando mumbling to himself as if Glover on modern SNL.Luckily this might as well be non-canon. The ending contradicts the movie Solo and it's world building set by the writers (see Vandor, Fort Ypso).Hopefully some other author can competently take on Lando's early career, perhaps that hinted adventure on Felucia.

This was fine, if a little boring. I think Lando deserves better than the way he’s portrayed here. He’s selfish and self absorbed. He talks down to everyone like he’s the greatest guy in the galaxy, which comes off as incredibly arrogant. Why does he have to kiss this random lady that hired him?? Why is that necessary? To prove he’s a womanizer? No thanks. L3 is the best part of this, constantly taken him down a notch. The story is fine, but it’s not very exciting.
