Book Review of Classic Star Wars: A New Hope

Classic Star Wars: A New Hope
Cheese avatar reviewed on + 324 more book reviews


This is the original reprinted collection of the first Star Wars movie (NEW HOPE) in comic book format. I believe this is the one that Marvel Comics released in the 1970's when the movie came out. It has some of the "cut scenes" in the comic like when Luke notices the fight above Tatooine at the beginning of the story and he runs and finds Biggs. It also shows Han Solos confrontation with Jabba right after the Cantina Bar scene. And by the way, Han does shoot first in this comic. Dark Horse bought the comic license in the 1990's and reprinted Marvel Comics Star Wars under the Star Wars Classic banner.
