Ricky Church reviews the eighteenth episode of Star Wars Resistance… As we build towards the season finale of Star Wars Resistance, its latest episode was fairly good but mostly involved a lot of set-up for the final couple episodes. ‘The Disappeared’ increased the threat of the First Order and their hold on the Colossus even as […]
