Reprinted from the original Marvel Star Wars series, this is the first of two newly colored, prestige-format issues adapting the first Star Wars movie. When this comic was first published in 1977, it caused a real clamor. Now, once again thrill to the adventures of Luke and Leia, the swashbuckling Han Solo and his trusted companion Chewbacca, the dastardly Darth Vader, and the faithful droids Artoo-Detoo and See-Threepio -- just like those childhood memories you had when you stood in line for two hours to see the movie for the first time! Pamela Rambo adds her coloring mastery to provide a magnificent updated look to the art, and Legend's Art Adams adds a brand-new jam-packed cover!

The events in Classic Star Wars take place between the first and second Star Wars films, and each issue is jam-packed with action. Our debut issue is no exception: Luke and Leia embark on a scouting mission, are pursued by Imperial troops, and fall into the clutches of a bounty hunter whose real target is Han Solo! Whew! The whole shebang is written by Archie Goodwin, drawn by Al Williamson, and colored by Steve Buccellato, with a new cover by Williamson.
