Marvel =Star Wars=#2 CGC 9.4 1st Obi-Wan Kenobi, Han Solo & Chewbacca 1977. This is number 2 in the comicbook series that “saved Marvel” in the 1970s. Roy Thomas basically saved Marvel by adapting the Star Wars movie for comicbooks. Just like the movies it jumped straight to “A New Hope”. This comicbook had the first Obi Wan Kenobi, Han Solo and Chewbacca in comicbook form. A New Hope: issue 2 Six against the Galaxy! Based on the screenplay by George Lucas. Adapted by Roy Thomas. Art by Howard Chaykin and Steve Leialoha. Princess Leia is in the hands of the evil Empire and Darth Vader. Now it falls on “farm boy” Luke Skywalker to seize his destiny and rescue her, and save the galaxy. But he can’t do it alone. Luckily he’ll get some help from old Ben Kenobi, once a great Jedi Knight known as Obi-Wan, Han Solo, a cocky ace pilot and all around scoundrel, Chewbacca, the hulking wookie and loyal co-pilot to Han, and the droids who hold the key to the Empire’s defeat, C-3PO and R2-D2.
