I picked up the first issue a day after it came out and got the last copy! Enjoyed it quite a bit, written in character too (which is what I was quite worried about). Stumbled across this thread just now and thought I should write a bit about it. Threepio is written exactly like in the movies and so is just about everyone else (Han Solo was quite impressively scripted as well). The setting starts pretty fast and the whole Chewie trying to snipe Vader thing was awesome! The only thing I didn't like was one scene where this guy pulls out like a lightsaber/whip thingy that really didn't fit in with the rest of the universe, my main concern about that is that apparently everything Disney releases from now on is canon but... I don't like a lazer-whip anywhere but in the goofy place called the EU. Overall; good comic, hoping that the game store will sell the second one.
