Before the Awakening (Star Wars)

This is the kind of quality content I'm here for.
Big-hearted Finn killing it in stormtrooper training while also trying to help his friend? (And more Phasma than the movie?) CHECK.
70ish heartbreaking and beautiful pages of my favorite thing from TFA: Rey's day-to-day life on Jakku? CHECK.
Poe piloting adventures with a heavy dose of General Leia? (Plus finally a clear explanation of the relationship between the Republic and the Resistance?) CHECK.
Phil Noto illustrations? CHECK.
I didn't think it was possible to love the new trio more than I already did.

Quotes Jessamyn Liked
“In their armor they were all the same, and that was the point, he understood. But he took pleasure in the moments when he could see their variety and diversity—those moments when he could glimpse the people beneath the armor and see them as more than just faceless, nameless soldiers identified by letters and numbers and nothing more.”

“She released his hand and sat back. That air of sadness had descended on her once more. His father had carried a similar melancholy after his mother had passed; Poe would see it descend on him like a shadow, settle over his shoulders like a blanket made of warmth and memory and longing and loss. Leia wore something made of the same material, and not for the first time Poe wondered how she had come by it and, perhaps more importantly, who had given it to her.”

“In that moment he understood it had never been a game. He understood that he was never going to be one of them.”

“She listened intently, her chin in her hand, her elbow on her knee. Poe couldn’t remember ever having felt so heard by anyone in all his life.”

“The need to do what’s right, and maybe find a little adventure along the way.â€� Poe shifted in his seat. “You remind me of my brother,â€� Leia said softly. “Fly like him, too, apparently.â€� Poe looked at her, surprised and flattered at once.”

“So when she wasn’t sleeping or just sitting and listening to the storm or tinkering at her workbench, she flew.”
