I think Tad Williams did a disservice to the characters by making this into a trilogy and not a longer series. He leaves a few loose threads that could be made into another book or two. While the ending is good it is a little too open ended to be great. I have too many questions that have no answers. and while they could be answered in short stories, Bobby (in my opinion) deserves more. Still worth the read.

Having to pick himself up in the aftermath of what happened after his trip to Hell. Bobby finds that his allies and even acquaintances are leaving him high and dry. Even his Somewhat Best Friend Sam is ghosting him.
Bobby has to navigate his suspicion of superiors in Heaven, Neo-Nazis, and Nightmare Children, or he may lose more than his halo.
  
In the original Star Wars trilogy - or, at least, ever since Empire Strikes Back - there was actually three main groups: that of the Rebels (Luke and co), that of the Empire (Darth Vader), and that of the 'scum and villainy' (Jabba the Hutt).

Of the latter, the Bounty Hunters first featured in Empire Strikes Back where far and away the coolest.

Which is why it is such a shame that this comic arc completely bungles the landing: hard to follow (I didn't even realise until a fair bit in that Valance was meant to be the main character), with the panels and lettering all over the place, and with a plot that takes its time spinning wheels, and that even has had its thunder stolen by The Mandalorian!

I might pick up the next arc, but only if it's own sale - doubt I'll pay full price for it!
