Funny / Star Wars: Age of Resistance

• The issue focusing on Hux has several moments of hilarity largely thanks to Hux and Kylo's non-stop bickering and snarking.
  • When Kylo uses the Force to shield himself and Hux from an explosion, Hux is left spluttering in disbelief that Kylo actually saved his life. Kylo drily responds "Not intentionally. I saved myself. You were just nearby." He then strides off, letting some small bits of rubble drop onto Hux's head (probably deliberately).
  • Kylo points out that their communication device is broken and Hux responds "Which means I have no choice but to talk to you instead of literally anyone else."
  • In a moment of Black Comedy, Kylo asks what happened to their pilot after the crash. Hux points to a nearby tree and states he thinks there's a bit of the pilot over there, then turns, points to another tree and says there's a bit more of the pilot over there...
  • Hux's "Reason You Suck" Speech to Kylo, where he says to his face that Kylo is even more hated than him because of his "tantrums" and his "dress up" games. Kylo is not happy, but concedes he can't actually do anything to Hux besides insult him back because of Snoke.
  • Hux and Kylo get attacked by native creatures called norwoods. Kylo immediately draws his lightsaber to defend himself, ordering Hux to stay behind him...only to turn around and see Hux hightailing it to hide in some bushes. Made even funnier by Kylo's response: a disbelieving "Really?"
  • Hux takes the opportunity to troll Kylo like mad while manipulating Bylsma into helping them, calling him "Ben" and saying how his mother will be so worried about him.
  • In a rather dark way, Hux cheerily asking to borrow Phasma's blaster when he goes to deal with Admiral Brooks, as it's "good and intimidating."
  • Kylo warns Snoke that Hux has the ambition of one day killing and usurping him. Snoke counters that "He wants to kill a lot of people. I don't take it personally."
• The part with the thermal detonator in Phasma's issue is humorous in an incredibly dark way. A grenade rolls towards Phasma on a battlefield, prompting stormtrooper KM-8713 to shout "Thermal detonator!" Phasma drily remarks "I can see that." She then swiftly turns to the injured stormtrooper KM-8713 is supporting, snaps "You. Be useful." and chucks him onto the detonator to save herself. She then goes back to giving orders as if nothing happened.
