Summary: Great, But Where's "ROTJ"?
Comment: Why didn't this volume include the adaptation of "Return Of The Jedi"? I thought this 7-voulume set collected the ENTIRE Marvel run! I know "Jedi" was released as a separate four-issue series, but I would have like to have seen what it looked like before Dark Horse re-colored it.
Other than that, volume 5 is great, and has characters like Fenn Shysa, Tobbi Dala, and Zeltrons who have survived to the modern day.

Summary: Can't get enough of the Marvel stories. FUN FUN FUN!
Comment: To me, this book is like a time machine. When I read it, I'm 12 years old again and eagerly awaiting the theatrical release of Return of the Jedi. What happened to Han Solo? Who is this mysterious bounty hunter named Boba Fett? How will Luke get ready for his inevitable showdown with Darth Vader?None of these questions are directly answered by this series, but they're alluded to as Leia, Lando, and Luke go on all-new adventures. Like the stupendous volume 4, the art is excellent -- Tom Palmer and Walt Simonson aren't afraid to put our heroes in different clothes, and writer David Michelinie is capable of fleshing these archetypes out into real characters.
Despite the technical differences (the coloring process used in the 80s is crude compared to today's comics), these remain my favorites for Star Wars "graphic novels." If you're into Star Wars and have an open mind, don't miss this run of wonderful stories.
