Publisher's summaryEdit

Tensions are high in this galaxy far, far away for Doctor Aphra. She's got a new master holding her reins…and he's a Triple-threat. Also – Magna Tolvan. Friend or foe?!

Plot summaryEdit

REMASTERED
Part III

It is a time of instability in the galaxy as rebel
forces battle the Galactic Empire for freedom.
But instability can lead to opportunity for those
with the know-how and lack of scruples to let
them take advantage of it.

Rogue archaeologist and scoundrel Doctor Chelli
Aphra would typically be one such individual.
Unfortunately, she's been blackmailed into the
servitude of a psychotic droid crime lord,
Triple-Zero.

Triple-Zero has tasked Aphra with leading a team
to steal secured data files from an old Techno
Union stash. As if that weren't hard enough,
Aphra is also being pursued by the just-her-type
Imperial Inspector, Magna Tolvan....

Notes and referencesEdit

Wookieepedia has 11 images related to Doctor Aphra 16.

↑ ^1.0 ^1.1 Star Wars: Doctor Aphra (2016) #16 on Marvel Comics' official website (backup link)
↑ Doctor Aphra 2 has a flashback sequence taken 18 years before the event of the story, in which Chelli Lona Aphra told her father that her mother had just died. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas states the Galactic Empire was founded in 19 BBY. According to Doctor Aphra 32, Lona Aphra left the Second Moon of Thrinittik with Chelli when the Empire was existing and also stated that they lived on the planet for 2 years before Lona's death, which means that Lona had to die during or after 17 BBY. Davits Draven died during the Assault on the Mako-Ta Space Docks, which according to Ultimate Star Wars, New Edition, was one year after the mission to steal the Death Star plans. As Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the mission to 0 BBY, the assault must have occurred in 1 ABY. Doctor Aphra 2 took place between Star Wars 30, which takes place in around 0 ABY and Star Wars 50. It cannot have taken place in 0 ABY, as Lona would have died in 18 BBY. If the comic took place in 1 ABY, it would mean that Lona died in 17 BBY, fulfilling the above information. Additionally, Doctor Aphra 32 also has a flashback sequence depicting Lona Aphra's death 18 years prior to the events of the comic. As this comic takes place between Doctor Aphra 2 and Doctor Aphra 32, this must also take place around 1 ABY.
