Four books out today but we're discussing only Bounty Hunters #12, but don't let that detract the achievement that is three separate issues of The High Republic (1, 2 and 3) reaching their 5th, 4th and 3rd printings, respectively.

The latest issue of Bounty Hunters builds up some connective tissue as to the relationship between Valance and Han Solo, which goes back to their Imperial academy days, as well as sets another brick in the path toward the War of the Bounty Hunters crossover.
