STAR WARS 4 COMIC BOOKS #1 PROMO X-WING ROGUE SQUADRON WEDGE ANTILLES PILOTS!!!





STAR WARS 4 COMIC BOOKS!
X-WING ROGUE SQUADRON

INCLUDING HARD TO FIND 1ST ISSUE COLLECTOR'S ITEM PROMOTIONAL COMIC BOOK, WIZARD SPECIAL EDITION #1/2, ONLY AVAILABLE AT EMPIRE STRIKES BACK RE-RELEASE SCREENINGS IN 1997

Who is the only pilot to be in both assaults on the Death Stars? Most Star Wars fans answer Luke Skywalker. The right answer, however is Wedge Antilles, Luke’s childhood friend who left to join the Rebellion. This series chronicles Wedge’s adventures after the Alliance’s victory.

In the opening story arc, “The Rebel Opposition,” Wedge and three others are ordered to escort a cargo ship from the planet Cilpar. Before they even clear Cilpar, they find a dozen Imperial tie fighters waiting for them. The only explanation for the ambush is that someone is leaking information about their activities. As the story unfolds, the only thing that’s clear is that the situation on Cilpar is far more complicated than Wedge had expected. Rumors abounded that the Alliance had made a deal with the Empire to quash a local rebellion. Although it had come seeking refuge, the Rogue Squadron found itself caught in a three-way war.

It should be a simple mission for the men and women of Rogue Squadron -- an easy search-and-rescue for a group of Bothan castaways forced down to Malrev 4. But when they reach the backwater planet, the Rogues find themselves attacked by the Irrukiine, a dog-like aboriginal species, and then by the Bothans themselves. There's some strange kind of hoodoo going down on Malrev 4 -- this planet promotes madness and deceit, and not even the Rogues are immune! Experience all the X-Wing adventure you can handle, from the mind of renowned Star Wars novelist Michael A. Stackpole.

STAR WARS 3-D #3 COMIC BOOK 1988 RAREST LOW PRINT RUN NEW HOPE EMPIRE STRIKES!!


STAR WARS 3-D #3 COMIC BOOK!
HARD TO FIND COLLECTOR'S ITEM. THIS IS ONE OF THE RAREST STAR WARS COMICS EVER!

Published in 1988 by the indie comic book company Blackthorne, this has an EXTREMELY LOW PRINT RUN because this was a period where very little in the way of Star Wars product was still being produced.

Star Wars 3-D is an unusual and long-forgotten title. Commemorating the 10th anniversary of the release of Star Wars, it was one of the few titles published in the United States outside the offices of Marvel or Dark Horse.

Undoubtedly the reason it went to Blackthorne in the first place was because they had built experience publishing in 3-D prior to obtaining their limited Star Wars license. Lucas, as his recent efforts to convert the existing movies into 3-D attests, was likely fascinated by the prospect of doing something "special" for the anniversary. And so Star Wars went briefly to a minor publisher.

it stood alone for around 20 years as the only comic printed after the completion of the original trilogy which was set entirely between Episodes IV and V. Indeed, there are few novels which have been published in that period.

And its stories did attempt to add something new to the mythos. It rationally answered questions that were largely ignored by the trilogy:

• Who got the Lars farm on Tatooine after Luke?
• Following the destruction of the first Death Star, did the Rebels really have time to build that base on Hoth all by themselves?
• And when, really, was the first time Luke did battle with Darth Vader?

The events in this comic take place after the rebels have set up their base on Hoth.

Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa are on a mission to Dantooine to secure supplies for their new base on the planet Hoth. Along with R2-D2, the group meet up with an Ortolan Merchant to buy weapons. As Leia negotiates the deal, Luke is accosted by a group of thugs who lead him away from the meeting. The leader of the group of thugs orders his subordinate Abel and several other thugs to lead Luke to the roof for reasons unknown. When they arrive, Luke surprises the band with his quickness and slays them with his lightsaber. After the encounter, Luke begins to hear a voice beckoning him to follow deeper into the building. Luke eventually discovers the voices, a race of Force-sensitive people that call themselves the Fairfolk. Unknown to Luke, the Fairfolk are working for Darth Vader to trap potentially dangerous Force-sensitives.

STAR WARS 4 COMIC BOOKS TALES OF THE JEDI GOLDEN AGE OF SITH WAR #1 K ANDERSON!





STAR WARS 4 COMIC BOOKS!
TALES OF THE JEDI
GOLDEN AGE OF THE SITH and SITH WAR

INCLUDING HARD TO FIND 1ST ISSUE COLLECTOR'S ITEM.

Written by Kevin J. Anderson.

Five millennia before Luke Skywalker was born -- and 1,000 years before two young Jedi reawakened a long-dormant evil -- the dark power of The Sith held unquestioning rule over the galaxy. For those black-souled, corrupt Jedi, it was a golden age. For the rest of the galaxy, it was a nightmare.

Navigators and explorers are a special breed -- they blaze the paths others will follow. They must have strength, drive, and hope, and be more than a little fearless. But nowhere is it written that they must have luck. Gav and Jori Daragon make their living charting the routes of hyperspace and selling those routes to traders and haulers. When a starswarm cluster batters their ship, they land on the planet Cinnagar, destitue and forlorn, and convince the relatively amiable Aarrba the Hutt to make the necessary repairs.

Marka Ragnos ruled the galaxy with an iron fist. He was the Dark Lord of the Sith -- the most powerful of the most powerful. But now he is dead. And two innocent hyperspace explorers, Gav and Jori Daragon, may follow suit if they get caught between the warring factions hoping to fill the Dark Lord void.

the thrill-a-minute follow-up to the best-selling Dark Lords of the Sith saga. Picking up six months after our story left off, Exar Kun and Ulic Qel-Droma are implementing their insidious plan for revitalizing the Golden Age of the Sith. While insinuating his darkside teachings to Jedi students on the planet Ossus, it becomes clear that Kun is only concerned with securing a powerful Sith Holocron from its sealed repository in the great library of Ossus. Ulic has devoted himself to developing the darkside military strategy -- the key to which may just be winning the loyalty of the ferocious warrior race led by a masked mysteryman named Mandalore.

Star Wars The storm clouds of battle gather over Yavin Four, and that entire world could be a casualty! To make his final stand against Jedi Nomi Sunrider, the betrayer Ulic Qel-Droma has let slip the dogs of war in a final, climactic confrontation.

HARD TO FIND. RARE and OUT OF PRINT.

The empty throne of the once-mighty Empire is the goal of Carnor Jax, who seeks to position himself as the new Dark Lord, now that the last of Emperor Palpatine’s clones have been destroyed. But out in the galaxy, laying low on some backwater planet, is a former colleague, Kir Kanos, now an enemy of the Empire, who Jax knows is a threat to his ambition. Kir Kanos is depicted as the classic knight-errant, the valiant paladin with a shady past and the scars to prove it, struggling against enormous odds. He and Jax were once members of the elite Imperial Guard; the personal bodyguards of the emperor. But that was a long time ago and far, far away…

In addition to the impressive cover paintings by Dave Dorman, this comic features previously unknown events with Darth Vader, as Kir Kanos remembers his tortured past.

Luke and Han depart Tatooine following their last 3-D adventure.

They head back to the Rebel base on Yavin 4, only to find it encircled by Imperial forces. Han craftily lands the Falcon near one of the Rebel bases on the planet, but it's abandoned. The duo lift off again, hoping that a coded message from Leia will lead them to the fleet's location. It does, but Leia and the other leaders are now desperate to find a new base. Han suggests Hoth, an ice planet far removed from normal space traffic.

Leia approves a plan to scout the planet for possible habitability. Heading out into the snow, the duo take the Rebels' first, tentative steps on Hoth.

Unbeknownst to both, smuggler Salmakk has made Hoth his home. From his base, he plans to capture Han and turn him in for Jabba's still-unclaimed bounty.

How Luke and Han get out of their first tricky situation on Hoth paves the way for the foundation of Echo Base . . .
