Opening crawl

THE NEWSPAPER STRIPS VOL. 1
The Rebel Alliance has won its first victory against the evil Empire, destroying its greatest super weapon, the Death Star, in the Battle of Yavin. Imperial forces still hold an iron grip over much of the galaxy, but word is spreading quickly of its first defeat. The Rebellion has brought new hope to the many star systems under Imperial control. Now, the rebel heroes have a new mission: to save the worlds in the greatest danger, to take resources and power from the Empire, and to gain new allies in their war to save the galaxy. But the Emperor's reach is vast, and he willstop at nothing to crush the tiny Rebellion....
