I love those comics. In my head, the stories from #7 through #38 are what happened between Star Wars and Empire. I was sad that it all seemed to be ignored by the later expanded universe. This was the original, it was all we had until Empire came out, and I think it’s awesome.

The stories were crazy but yes, shame they'd rather be forgotten nowadays 👍

At the end of the "Cavern Of The Crawling Death" issue, #28, the orange, possibly furry, (?) and distinctly humanoid Jabba the Hutt forgives Han's debt and rescinds the giant bounty on his and Chewie's heads. As blatantly non-canon as these between movie issues were, I loved them as a kid. In fact, #28 and #29 were two of, if not THE favorite two issues of mine from that era. Wish to the moon and back that I still had them. 🙁

Very nicely done..Enjoyed watching... Star Wars #1 35cent, I’m always on the lookout for it..Alabama being my home, was one of the distribution areas of the 35 cent comic, Or so I’ve read.I’ve found a diamond shape only to learn it wasn’t the one of value..So the fun of hunting continues.

To be fair, this comic series was mostly decanonized by the second wave of the expanded universe of the 90's. The novels published by Bantam and the comics by Dark Horse mostly ignored it.

But every once in awhile you'll see a theme or something from the old books that pops up in the SW Uni and you wonder if they got that from the old comics.

I always thought that cover of issue #6 was sooooo deceptive! Where was the lightsabre battle with Darth?! 12p for a UK comic... wow... by the end of the 80's they were 75p! That's a hell of a jump in ten years!

Great comics jules 👌 I wouldn't worry about what Disney regards as cannon , that's down to us I believe, personally I dont regard any of the di$ney crap to be cannon t.b.h , the audacity of them to even say that says a lot about these shitweasels , another nice collection you have there mate😁

Well. I've not got a single comic graded but long term, in high grade, these will appreciate in value faster.
