Star Wars Weekly 4




Star Wars Weekly #4 represents the fourth installment in the Star Wars Marvel UK comic book series.

Similar to the American Marvel Star Wars comic series, it commenced with a sprawling adaptation of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, however, it was divided into twelve segments rather than the six found in the US version. This encompasses the latter portion of the narrative initially presented in the US as Star Wars (1977) 2.
