What if Luke Skywalker had died on Hoth instead of being
saved by Han Solo? How much would the story we’ve known for so many years have
changed? In this trade, we find out one of the possibilities. The Infinities
line from Dark Horse is hands down my favorite alternate stories I’ve ever
read.
Because of a miscommunication in Luke’s dying words, Han
Solo believes he has to go to Dagobah to learn to become a jedi. Fortunately,
Leia goes with him and the story goes for a few interesting loops. What begins
at Hoth then takes us to Bespin, Dagobah, Tatooine and then the final battle is
on Dagobah. You’ll never guess who ends up being frozen in carbonite.
As with all the trades in this series, when I opened it to
read, the pages separated from the cover. I have had books do this to me over
time and with considerable use, but not straight off the shelf and never before
an entire series of books from a single publisher. The good thing is… as I’ve posted previously…
when I reached-out to Dark Horse to inform them of this problem, they sent me a
replacement copy with better binding.
Buy this trade and add it to your collection. There are 2
more volumes to enjoy as well.
