This is about all an old Marvel-Star-Wars-fan-on-a-budget can afford - an only-slightly-less-sought-after 'Star Wars Weekly' page.

As I've noted on other pages in this gallery, Marvel UK required additional Star Wars stories to make up the extra slots in their weekly-rather-than-monthly publishing schedule. This story is from a flashback 'The Day After the Death Star' one-shot story.

I include Howard Bender, as he's credited as 'tonist'; presumably the staffer who adds the Zipatone™ effects for publication in a U.K. black-and-white magazine.

After years of deaths and many sacrifices as seen in Andor and Rogue One, the Rebels pulled off a miracle with farm boy Luke! This aftermath of a New Hope is a missing piece of the puzzle before they moved to their operations to Hoth.

Such an awesome Star Wars Weekly/UK story page which allows us to reminisce on that great Rebel victory over the Empire with Luke as he recalls the medal ceremony and subsequent celebrations. An ideal type of page that shows the additional contextual publishing that the UK readers got to check out! congrats.
