That was a really cool post of the cantina scene ZkinandBonez , in the U.S. it was used as the cover of F.O.O.M. (friends of old Marvel ) magazine , I have never seen it sans color though , thanks for posting . Here is the image in color …click on the pic to see full image…https://comicbookrealm.com/series/772/9926/marvel-foom-friends-of-ol-marvel-issue-21

I on the other hand have never seen it in colour before. I do like the weird 70’s colours that Marvel used to have, red lightsabers and all.

But since the pin-up version had almost all of the art intact, I figured it’d be fun to recolour it similarly to what Dark Horse did in the Classic Star Wars series or the “Special Editions” of the movie adaptations.

This is just the first version. I might change some of the colours on both Chewie and the alien at the bottom right to make everything even less retro-looking. Plus, I’m probably going to notice some mistakes after a while. (Feedback would be appreciated.)

It’s also interesting to see that the FOOM version is different from the SWW pin-up. The most obvious change being that Han is much closer to Ben in the pin-up version.
