The Star Wars #8

05/28/2014 10:59am
The conclusion of the original Star Wars story by George Lucas! Annikin Starkiller fights Darth Vader and Prince Valorum to save Princess Leia! Luke Skywalker and the Wookiees attack the Empire’s Space Fortress! This is the final battle! It’s like nothing you’ve seen before, but it’s all Star Wars!

"Keep a look out for this issue, if you haven't started this series you could and you won't have trouble reading. The art is the finest I have seen. Even for Dark Horse this is great! I am pleased to tell people about this series." - GoCollect
"The Star Wars is at heart fun, keeping a breathtaking pace from beginning to end. Its action-packed and full of nostalgic images that will make any Star Wars fan smile." - Culture Mass 
"It's fast paced and action-packed from cover to cover. The story is fun and told perfectly- full of exiting events, great dialog and a real feeling of momentum from start to finish." -Comic Spectrum
"This original draft, as translated into this story, feels more like the pulpy inspiration of Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers than the ultimately resulting movie. While the comic book translation proves that the original draft is good in its own right, one thing that really stands out is that there are about double the number of main characters than ended up in the movie." - CHUD 
"Although having the substance of a J.J Abrams by product, book five of The Star Wars is as entertaining read as they come. Looking at the overall arc, the first two issues were very dialog heavy, weaving a strong first act that has allowed for action to flow so obtusely in the second. When reading titles month to month, it is very easy to get bogged down in plot twists, continuity, and gritty tone. To have a book that you can pick up and jump into for a cheap thrill (well maybe not cheap with the rising costs, but that's a whole other discussion) can be a godsend. Whether you're a die hard follower of the force or not, this first draught is proving time and time again to be more coherent than a lot that is on the shelves today!" - Geeked Out Nation
