Important Added Info: Note that this comic definitively shows that Han Solo "fired first" in his confrontation with the Imperial troopers (it is drawn out over an entire page, and there is no doubt; see our image of the centerfold of the comic)! This was much discussed over the years! Note that the first Star Wars comic (#1) was published by Marvel in 1977, when Star Wars was released. In 1982, they published this comic, with "Marvel Movie Showcase" at the top, and it contained the first three issues of the comic published in 1977, and it had #1 on the cover, which makes it look like it is the first issue of Star Wars, but of course, it is not! Contents: "Star Wars!" Collects Star Wars (1977-1986 Marvel) #1-3. Based on the movie by George Lucas. Adapted by Roy Thomas. Art by Howard Chaykin. This is the official comic book adaptation of the greatest science fiction epic of all time."
