Doctor Aphra #4

Doctor Aphra finds herself in a tight spot on this 2017 Marvel cover by Kamome Shirahama, crouching blaster-in-hand as not one but two Imperial AT-AT walkers loom through a burning forest behind her, their cannons blazing streaks of red across an ominous orange sky. It's a striking image that captures everything compelling about Aphra — goggles pushed up on her helmet, expression alert and calculating, clearly outgunned but far from out of ideas. With Kieron Gillen writing and Kev Walker on interior art, "Aphra Book I, Part IV" continues what is shaping up to be one of the Star Wars galaxy's most entertaining solo adventures.
