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....
