Marvel Special Edition Featuring Star Wars 3 collects the first six issues of the Marvel Star Wars series of comics.
This is an Oversized 10 x 14 inch Treasury sized comic, which were very popular and common in the 1970's.
The pages are twice the size of the original comic books, but the height of each page is slightly less in comparison. This means that many of the comic book panels have been cropped at the bottom, and many of the characters feet, which were visible in the original version, are cut off.
This issue was released in 1978 and has a $2.50 cover price.
