CGC census 3/22: 48 in 9.8, none higher." I mean, that is a dream team on the creative side for this book. Look at those names! And anything featuring the probe droid front and center is always going to have my attention. This is still when this book was decent; after I would say issue #55, things start to do downhill for a good while. With that creative team, it would have been good no matter what.
