I remember reading my paperback book sized compendium of the ESB strip on the way back from Worthing beach after losing my new digital watch and getting freaked out by a poster for The Brood showing at the Dome cinema.

I left my paperback ESB comic on a bus somewhere around Barnsley, and to this day I can't fathom how (fortunately it's hardly a rare item even today, so I didn't have any trouble finding another once it occurred to me to do so).

It was cool to see the comic versions of the deleted scenes in Building Empire (does Luke's grappling hook miss in the Star Wars adaptation? ;-) )
