I wouldn’t go as far to say that Aphra has Daddy IssuesTM, but she does harbor a lot of resentment towards her parents and the way they raised her. In #4, on the mystical planet of the Ancient Temple, Aphra pretends to be left out of options in hopes of hearing her father confess that he was wrong. It works and we are treated to a heart touching scene of accountability and redemption from her zealot Father. After she is satisfied with his admittance of parental neglect, they teeter on the brink of reconciliation. We also find out that Aphra is queer, after developing a teensy crush on Tolvan, who she spares after destroying Rur and saving everyone. Worst Among Equals Aphra and her deranged murderbot are fixed with a couple of explosive devices that force them to work together while broadcasting their flight to all the bounty hunters on their trailMarvel Comics' September 2020 comic book solicitations and covers on GamesRadar+ ( June 19, 2020) (archived from the original on June 19, 2020) Noting that "Aphra's sarcasm and the careful way she codes her words are a vital part of her character", StarWars.com also explains that though she is somewhat of a genius, Aphra's ability to think on her toes is what has kept her alive in situations where her genius fails her. [2] Gillen notes that readers can never be sure what the character will or will not do. [7] Doctor Aphra writer Si Spurrier explains that despite the expectation that Star Wars characters "will always do the right thing", Aphra makes mistakes and sometimes chooses the unexpected. [7] Sarah Kuhn, the author of Doctor Aphra: An Audiobook Original, agreed that "[Aphra] is the definition of chaos ... You never really know exactly what she's going to do, which means that, personally, I think she's having the most fun of anyone in the Star Wars galaxy." [8] Doctor Aphra: An Audiobook Original Revealed". StarWars.com. April 23, 2020 . Retrieved April 25, 2020. Spurrier states that Aphra "knows that Vader is probably not a nice person. She's aware that space fascism is not necessarily a good thing but it may be the right thing for a chaotic universe." [7] Gillen compares Aphra to Darth Vader in that fans root for both as anti-heroes, but explains that while Aphra is a "bad person in many ways", Vader is on another level as "one of the greatest villains of all time." [4] Gillen further explains, "you can root [for her], because she makes really bad life decisions and sort of rolls with them ... She doesn't like killing people. She's not like a random murderer." [4] He noted that Aphra is complex in that she is "adamantly pro- Empire" but tends not to obey its rules.
