- "Whatever they are, Threepio, they're armed--and opening fire on those sea monsters with us caught in the middle!"
- ―Luke Skywalker
Star Wars 12: Doomworld! is the twelfth issue in the Marvel Star Wars series of comics.
Plot summary[edit | edit source]
Luke Skywalker and the droids C-3PO and R2-D2 are stranded on the water world Drexel. While floating in their escape pod, they are caught in the middle of a battle between the sea-dragons, ridden by the Dragon Lords, and the hydra craft, piloted by Governor Quarg's men. The combatants are battling for the prize of Luke's wrecked ship, as anything mechanical is a rare commodity on the ocean-covered planet. The battle ends in a standoff, but Luke and the droids are captured by the skimmer pilots and brought back to their base, where Luke tries to convince Quarg that the droids would be more useful to them intact than stripped down for parts.
Meanwhile, Han Solo is leading Crimson Jack and his gang of pirates to the Drexel system under the pretense that there is treasure to be found, but the pirates becomes suspicious when they arrive and the only planet in the system is entirely covered in water.
