The Ice Worm Cometh!, appearing in December of 1978 within Pizzazz 15, represented the sixth chapter of The Kingdom of Ice. Subsequently, in 1979, the complete narrative sequence was republished in the UK through issues 57 to 60 of Star Wars Weekly.
Luke Skywalker, attempting to avoid a brutal ice storm, instructs R2-D2, C-3PO, Odan, and Fafnir to activate all available heat induction units or blasters situated on the surface. The Rebels then manage to penetrate the subterranean passages created by an ice worm. They proceed into the tunnel system in pursuit of the Imperials who have abducted Princess Leia Organa, all the while oblivious to the fact that an ice worm has initiated a pursuit of them.
