sigh.... the original marvel 1970's version is the ONLY version worth looking at with all it's glorious crayola colors. I have a hard time with them calling this an OGN. it is a re-colored reprint of Marvel star wars (1977) 1-6, it is not original.

I think I'd rather get the omnibus that collects issues #1-44. This is nice if you can't afford the more expensive version I suppose.

I am so happy!

If you already have the dark horse omnibus volume's then that is all you need. They even retain the the original coloring.

you can actually still find these at reasonable prices:

That Adi Granov cover is just amazing!

It's funny, earlier today I watched Spoony's review of this

I like how they used retro art. I wont be getting this cause i've seen the movie enough times but its pretty cool.

Those jedi boobs when Leia gets stunned. Gonna have to rewatch that scene, cause I never really noticed those before

heh the artist has no idea how Vader actually looks
