Serving somewhat as a spinoff from the overall Dark Droids event, readers learn what happened to R2-D2 after a Scourge-infected C-3PO launched him into space. R2 is still on a quest to save his friend, with his mission seeing him collide with a number of other beloved droids. In addition to plating the seed of droids rebelling against the Dark Droids who have already begun their own rebellion, the book concludes with more insight into how the "Scourge" started in the first place, as the droid Ajax questions both his motivations and his methods. The portions of the book focusing on R2-D2 were delightful and allowed for some highly entertaining exchanges between familiar droids, while also setting the stage for the D-Squad of droids to be significant figures in this crossover event. While this narrative was entertaining from a superficial level, the concluding story that uncovered more elements of Ajax's backstory then added more gravitas to everything going on across almost all Star Wars books. As surprising as it might sound, D-Squad might be the most entertaining issue we've gotten yet in the Dark Droids event. - 60

It’s a great story that sets up a fascinating arc for Ajax Sigma in Dark Droids, but sadly overshadows the events of D-Squad‘s first issue.
