Glad all the old Marvel comics were collected in Dark Horse's Omnibus format before the license went back to Marvel. With what Marvel is going to charge for the reprinted "Legends" comics I don't think these vintage comics will be worth purchasing in the future.

The stories are a little strange and the art isn't great, but they probably kept many fans entertained while they waited between movies. I always assumed that the majority of the old Marvel comics took place before the original Star Wars. This collection spans from between the Empire Strikes Back to after The Return of the Jedi.

It includes the adaptation to The Return of the Jedi and the art for this four issue arc is a step above everything else in this volume. The adaptation show more also contains minor scenes and dialog that were either cut or not included in the movie. show less
