Star Wars (2013) 1
Star Wars 1: In the Shadow of Yavin, Part One, which came out both in physical stores and online on January 9, 2013, marks the initial installment of the Star Wars comic book saga. The timeline of this series is set during the period between the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope and those of Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back. Due to high demand, the initial run of the book sold out almost immediately, prompting a second printing with a revised cover design, this time without any obstructing text.
Publisher's summary
Prepare for a Star Wars experience that blends nostalgia with fresh perspectives! Journey back to the thrilling era after the Death Star's demise—a time when the Empire reigned supreme, the Rebels fought from the shadows, and the galaxy teemed with peril and endless possibilities!
Continuity
An introductory note within the comic states that Alderaan was the initial target destroyed by the Death Star. However, this detail contradicts established lore, as the Death Star had previously annihilated the planet Despayre before the destruction of Alderaan.
