Star Wars #3 (Sep 1977, Marvel)
Part 3 of A New Hope hits the spinner racks as Roy Thomas adapts George Lucas’ screenplay with art from Howard Chaykin and Steve Leialoha. This chapter delivers the first Han Solo and Chewbacca cover appearance, as the Millennium Falcon is drawn into the Death Star’s tractor beam. Leia’s homeworld faces obliteration while Obi-Wan begins Luke’s Jedi training—classic Bronze Age Marvel meets blockbuster sci-fi.
MAJ. PICTO’S GRADING NOTES: VF/NM (9.0) – sharp copy with bold colors, tight spine, and excellent gloss. First Chewy & Han Solo cover, a standout in the Star Wars run.
