They did do reprints of the Marvels, but with new duller coloring than the originals.
Weird. That looks like the books I have, but it doesn't sound like the books I have.
I already mentioned the reprint info on the inside flap, and the credits are completely different (unless Episode IV just happened to have completely different credits from the other two).
"Script: Archie Goodwin
Pencils & Inks: Al Williamson, Carlos Garzon
Colors: Gary Porter, Perry McNamee
Lettering: Ed King
Cover Art: Greg & Tim Hildebrandt"
Neat, I didn't know pressing shift+return bypassed the extra
.
Also, I'm skimming through real quick, and I don't see any SE changes in Jedi. Even the Sarlacc looks like it's supposed to, no beak or anything.
LOL. I love how the description says the 97 Jabba scene is amazing...when it's one of the worst CGI scenes I've ever seen in my entire life!
For anyone interested who doesn't feel like clicking on the link, here's the relevant passage from the synopsis.
Dark Horse's Official Party Line Tower said:
When George Lucas made the first Star Wars motion picture, a scene was shot wherein Han Solo met Jabba the Hutt. But as any Star Wars fan knows, Jabba didn't appear until the third film, Return of the Jedi. Lucas had hit the technological wall -- he couldn't craft Jabba the way he wanted, so he simply removed the scene from his initial, ground-breaking movie. Now, two decades later, he has taken that footage -- with a young Harrison Ford portraying a brash Han Solo -- and added Jabba to it. The result is incredible. The hair will stand up on the back of your neck, and you'll feel twenty years younger as you experience that remarkable thrill all over again.
LOL. It'd be sad if it wasn't so damn funny.
