Product Description: Dark Horse presents Star Wars: Return of the Jedi -- The Special Edition, the third thrilling chapter in the greatest space fantasy ever! The Emperor and Darth Vader make the final preparations to destroy the Rebel Alliance once and for all. Meanwhile, Luke Skywalker, now a Jedi Knight, must rescue Han Solo, frozen in carbonite, from the palace of Jabba the Hutt. Shipping to coincide with the theatrical release of the third Star Wars Special Edition movie, this collection includes a 30-page gallery featuring the original pre-production sketches by Ralph McQuarrie, as well as production sketches of the Special Edition movie release.
Return of the Jedi shows promise. The comic book adaptation of Return of the Jedi does a good job of describing the events that take place in the movie. The sketches drawn show enough detail to give them depth. Found at the back of the book are production sketches from the original trilogy by Ralph McQuarrie, Ivor Beddoes, Joe Johnston, Derek Thompson, George Hull, Doug Chiang, and Terryl Whitlatch including an early concept design of a stormtrooper. I prefer the version that is in the movies. Also included were sketches of the Special Edition of ROTJ including the celebration scenes at the end of the movie.
Not worth the money... This comic is quite a disappointment - it's only the original one in a new cover. So if you expect to get new drawings, new lettering - it's a blast!
Wonderful Fantasy Book Wonderful wonderful book. Exciting, terrifying and haunting at the same time. The final battle for the empire proves to be positive for the rebels, who pull together at the last minute and fight for all they're worth!
This doesn't deserve the title star Wars This left out way too much of the story line. Do yourself a favor and rent the movie this was close to the worst book I've ever read. Please don't waste your money on this book. go spend some more money and buy the movie.
