DescriptionStar Wars #70 Pg. 1 Title SplashPencils by Kerry Gammill Inks by Tom Palmer Letters by Joe Rosen Written by Mary Jo Duffy "You've never heard of the Millennium Falcon?" "Should I have?" "It's the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs. I've outrun Imperial starships. Not the local bulk cruisers, mind you, I'm talking about the big Corellian ships now. She's fast enough for you, old man." ―Han Solo and Obi-Wan Kenobi It's the biggest hunk of junk in the galaxy! The Millennium Falcon! This is a big pickup for me for many reasons, so I'll boil it down to a short list and not make this write up a full length novel. 1) Owning a title splash from the original Marvel Star Wars run has been a big collecting goal of mine, a grail level item on my want list. 2) The Millennium Falcon is one of the objects/settings/ships I love the most about Star Wars. It is a character within itself, and an important part of many of the main characters journeys. And this title splash is one of (if not my favorite) image of it in the entire original Marvel run. 3) Issue 70 is the only issue of Star Wars illustrated by Kerry Gammill and one of my favorite issues of the original Marvel run. According to Kerry on a post he made on his Facebook page, he did this issue 2 years before it was published as an inventory story that Mary Jo Duffy wrote (not sure exactly when Palmer did his inks). And that'll do...Chewie, we're home! Happy (and proud even) to be the first temporary caretaker of this page, after Tom Palmer and his family. May the force be with you! Issue #70: Lando Calrissian, Chewbacca, R2-D2, and Luke Skywalker make their way to the planet Stenos in the Millennium Falcon, hoping to find the bounty hunter that worked with Boba Fett during the search for the Millennium Falcon. The group hopes that the search will lead to Fett, who is still in possession of Han Solo, frozen in carbonite. Both Calrissian and Chewbacca's search for Bossk and Skywalker and Artoo's search for IG-88B have led them to the same location. Lando is uneasy about both searches ending up in the same place, and he expects a double-cross. Skywalker jumps on the mention of deception and begins to recount a story about how he and Han had been double-crossed on Stenos right after they joined the Rebellion. Social/Sharing |
