Speaking of the original Marvel comics, should I get into those? I own the latter half of their SW/ANH adaptation in an oversized book (see below) and I’m interested in collecting more issues.
Definitely.
Amid all the retro Marvel weirdness there’s some real SW gold.
However I feel like a lot of people who get these Marvel omnibuses stop reading only a few issues in (after ANH adaptation). Which is something that I can understand. Speaking as someone who didn’t grow up with these stories, the first few issues after ANH can feel a bit “odd” and probably put off some newer readers. Once you’ve gotten a few issues in though, and Marvel switched the writer and illustrator, I personally think they made some of the best SW comics ever.
