I'm not so sure about this bridging concept. It feels like they're trying to stretch out the story instead of letting it breathe. Ahsoka's first season had some great moments, but it also had pacing issues, so I hope they don't use this "Escape From Thrawn" thing as a crutch instead of really getting into the character growth we need to see in season 2.

I’m glad they are doing something new instead of retelling Season 1. I never understood the point of buying a comic that follows the show almost scene for scene. This one has a reason to exist, and Ezra is a good choice for the lead. His situation at the end of the first season left plenty of questions, so I want to see how he gets out of trouble. Thrawn is also the kind of villain who can make a simple escape story interesting because he plans several moves ahead. Ezra will need more than luck to survive this. I hope the comic shows some clever decisions from both characters.

My main concern is that Disney might put too much important story into a comic book. I watch the shows, but I do not always have the money or time to follow every comic and novel connected to Star Wars. If Ezra's journey explains something important about Season 2, I would rather see the main details on screen. I do not mind extra adventures for people who want them, though. This could be a good way to explore his time on the Chimaera without using several episodes. I just hope viewers who skip the comic will not feel lost when the new season starts.

Ezra and Thrawn sharing the same ship is already enough to get my attention. I enjoyed their relationship in Rebels because they were both smart, but they approached problems in very different ways. Ezra often relied on instinct and his connection with the Force, while Thrawn studied his opponents and looked for weaknesses. I want to see that contrast again. Captain Enoch and the Nightsisters also give Ezra more problems to deal with, so this should not be an easy trip home. I hope he has to think his way out of trouble instead of winning every fight through the Force. That would make his escape much more satisfying to read.

Honestly, I would rather have watched this as a few episodes of the actual show. Ezra has been away from the main Star Wars galaxy for years, and I want to see more of that experience. A comic can tell the story well, but some moments would be better with music, acting, and movement. Still, I understand why they chose this format. The show has a lot of characters and plotlines to handle already. Giving Ezra a separate adventure could leave more time for Ahsoka and Sabine in Season 2. I will probably read a summary before the premiere, but I hope the comic is good enough to make me want the full story.

The title made me laugh a little because Ezra really cannot catch a break. He finally gets off Peridea, and now he has to escape Thrawn's ship too. I am glad he is getting the spotlight, though. Sabine and Ahsoka received plenty of attention in the first season, while Ezra's return left me wanting more. This comic could give him the adventure he deserves. I especially want to see how Enoch handles the situation because he seems like someone who takes his job seriously. If Ezra manages to fool him and Thrawn, that will be quite an achievement. I am interested, but I will wait to see the first issue before deciding whether to buy it.

Releasing the comic around the Season 2 premiere gives fans another way to get excited about the show. It also lets Marvel tell a story that might not fit naturally into the television schedule. I am more interested in the fact that Dave Filoni came up with the story than I am in the marketing description. He knows these characters and their history, so I hope the comic feels like a natural continuation rather than an extra product made to sell more merchandise. Rodney Barnes and Andrea Di Vito also have a chance to make this a strong comic on its own. If the writing and artwork are good, I think it can work.
