Father and Sons
Something from Jango's past connects to the present Boba Fett.
Pros
This issue continues where it last left off with Jango staring at...himself. To be more precise, a runaway clone trooper who Jango was hired to kill. Jango definitely shows his ruthlessness when the clone trooper asks him if he could shoot himself and responses by saying, "That's because you're not me." He does however, shows compassion to the clone's wife and son who is named Conner Freeman. At the end, like Jango Fett said: "It's just business". The rest of the issue goes to the present Boba Fett, but not in the same position he was in the first issue. Instead, he learns of a secret of his father that goes back to that same mission Jango did. The last part of the issue leads to a grown up Conner Freeman who appears to inherited some of Jango's genes, but is a bit lazy. All and all, Boba Fett is going to get to the bottom of this. Tom Taylor is doing a great job with keeping the story simple and not having the reader doing any backtracking with any other Star Wars titles out.
Chris Scalf's artwork is beautiful to look at. Like a painting, Scalf gives Blood Ties a more realistic approach, which almost make the comic look live action.
Cons
As I said with last issue, this comic is for Jango and Boba Fett fans. The pacing is a bit slow with three different parts to this issue. I would have liked to hear more inner monologues from Boba.
Overall: What possibly make this series interesting is that this connects both of the greatest bounty hunters in the galaxy. It should be interesting to see what choices Boba Fett will make when it comes to Conner Freeman.
