Even though I had the OT on VHS available to me as a kid (the unaltered versions luckily), I still loved the movie adaptation comics. I was lucky to get ahold of the Norwegian ANH TPB from 1978 when I was about 8 years old, and I shortly after managed to track down the re-coloured OT adaptations released in the mid 90’s.

I would actually bring them with me on trips and holidays so that I could always “watch”/read SW wherever I went. Norwegians are quite fond of their “hytte”, which is basically a combination of a cabin and a summer house, and even though they had some modern conveniences, a VCR wasn’t one of them. And since we often spent several weeks in the cabin I’d always bring lots of comics to read, and the OT adaptations was a permanent inclusion.
