I didn't like them having a fight in War of the Bounty Hunters, it felt too soon and unnecessary.
I'm really invested in Valance's journey and curious to see what's next for him, although the story with the crime boss daughter just feels like it's padding the plot out. I will miss the Valance and Dengar bromance.
Aphra is just...Aphra's crazy hijinks. Honestly I sometimes wonder why people still give her the time of day, although I guess for the most part it's the people who want to get into her pants. It's nice to see the Tagge family back though.
There are a lot of flashbacks in Vader (then again there are plenty of ESB references in Soule's run) but I think Pak is doing a good job of depicting Vaders' emotional struggle while still being...well, Vader. And doing some prequel era follow-ups. Also Ochi as Vaders' hype-man is amazing.
I'm curious where all this Crimson Dawn stuff is going.
