This is another sample from the Age of Rebellion series. This volume features the villains of the series. Villains featured are Grand Moff Tarkin, Boba Fett, Jabba the Hutt, Darth Vader, plus one more Age of Rebellion special issue with a couple of additional villains. 

Overall, the stories are very good. Fans of the classic Star Wars will probably like this volume. I personally liked the Tarkin story, which shows how ruthless he can be. The Jabba the Hutt tale was pretty good too with a bit of a twist revealing that the gangster can also be practical. The art is also very good in this series. 

I like this volume a bit more than the heroes series (link to my review), but they are both worth reading. In this volume you get good stories and good art. In addition, you also get commentary essays on each villain and a covers gallery. I really liked it. It was a nice and easy read, and I do recommend it. 

4 out of 5 stars.
