"Our goal was to create sequels and prequels to the films we loved, paying careful attention to quality and detail, essentially treating those films as though they were our own. Star Wars has been the crown jewel of this approach."
―Mike Richardson, on the end of Dark Horse's Star Wars publishing run[src]

Dark Horse Comics is a publisher of comic books that over the years has produced many licensed works, a large number of which take place in the Star Wars universe. Dark Horse began publishing comics in 1986 and first published for Star Wars with Star Wars: Dark Empire in 1991.[3] Dark Horse has also republished the Marvel Star Wars comics and has produced several compilations of works, including the aforementioned Marvel works, in a collection of trade paperbacks known as Star Wars Omnibus. The Omnibus imprint is also used for other fictional universes such as Lucasfilm's Indiana Jones and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Dark Horse has a division called Dark Horse Digital, which allows customers to view comics online.

On January 3, 2014, Disney announced that the Star Wars comics license would move from Dark Horse back to Marvel in 2015.[4]
