Hey, everybody! We hope youre having lots of fun

on this years Free Comic Book Day.
If this is your first Star Wars comic, be sure to check
out the rest of Dark Horses line, covering virtually
every era of Star Wars history. Like the Clone Wars? We
have one line for younger readers, and another for
older readers. Same goes for the era of Luke Skywalker,
Darth Vader, and the Rebellion. Youll find stories
going back thousands of years to the founding of the
Jedi Order, and tales of what happens in the galaxy
a century after defeat of the Emperor.
But whether youre a long time reader or a first-timer,
please enjoy this free offering from your pals at Dark
Horse Comics!
