The original comic adaptation of the greatest space-fantasy film of all!

Weeks before George Lucas' first Star Wars film hit theatres, Marvel gave fans their first look at Luke Skywalker, boldly asking: "Will he save the galaxy, or destroy it?" You may know the answer, but that doesn't spoil the fun of seeing A New Hope like never before -- including scenes that never made the silver screen! When the Empire takes Princess Leia prisoner, Luke, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Han Solo, Chewbacca, C-3PO and R2-D2 ride to the rescue and take on Darth Vader in his awesome Death Star. It's six against a galaxy -- one that's far, far away and a long time ago! May the Force be with you, in the mighty Marvel manner!

Roy Thomas joined the Marvel Bullpen as a writer and editor under Stan Lee, scripting key runs of nearly every title of the time: Amazing Spider-Man, Avengers, Daredevil, Doctor Strange, Sub-Mariner, Thor, X-Men and more. He wrote the first 10 years of Marvel's Conan the Barbarian and Savage Sword of Conan; and launched such series as Defenders, Iron Fist, Invaders and Warlock. At DC, he developed All-Star Squadron, Infinity Inc. and related titles, proving instrumental in reviving the Golden Age Justice Society of America. Thomas later became editor of Alter Ego, a magazine devoted to comic-book history, and co-scripted the sword-and-sorcery films Fire and Ice and Conan the Destroyer.

Artist Howard Chaykin has been an industry legend for more than three decades. After introducing Dominic Fortune in Bizarre Adventuresand drawing Marvel's Star Wars adaptation, he revamped DC's Blackhawk and lent his unique perspective on past decades to American Century, Twilight, Pulp Fantastic and City of Tomorrow, among others. Chaykin's seminal work writing and illustrating the politically charged series American Flagg! has influenced a generation of writers and artists. He remains a leading creative force in the industry, having illustrated Punisher War Journal, Wolverine, Blade and more for Marvel Comics.
