Star Wars Weekly 6


Star Wars Weekly 6 represents the sixth installment within the Star Wars Marvel UK comic book series.

Mirroring the format of the American Marvel Star Wars comic series, its initial storyline was a fragmented adaptation of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, presented in twelve segments instead of the original six. This includes the latter part of the narrative that was published in the US as Star Wars (1977) 3.
