As they have full .txt for each issue, if all the .txts are downloaded, most modern OSs can parse all the text in normal file searches.  So made an excel doc which creates the file links:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AtjXdIjRQo5NdDRObnRSZ1gtcEI1OVFTZmNlZ3lJQXc&usp=sharing

Copy the links into jDowloader or some other automated downloader and we can now search the issue for terms.  (all the 228 .txt files is 73.2 mb)

"Star Wars" returns 222 issues

"George Lucas" returns 215 issues

"Luke Skywalker" returns 122 issues

"Greedo" returns 2 issues

"Gary Kurtz" returns 190 issues

"Dave Prowse" returns 49 issues

"Jawa" returns 9 issues

"Tippett" returns 36 issues

In the excel doc is also the .pdf linkage for mass downloading.  (~51GB) Throw out a term/s and I can do the search.
