I like how the artist changes every time. Your link might be removed, as this is currently available commercially - however, since it's a viewing and not a download site, I'm not too sure.
A Goon in a Gaggle of 'em
I really enjoyed these when they were released. They did a 2 part (instead of the normal four) for TPM and nothing at all for AotC or RotS. Which seems about right.
I think they are out of print but still available from Amazon.
I think the link is probably against the forum rules, but lets see what moth3r says or does,lol.
I spent years trying to find and buy the Japanese versions because they are not flipped, they should have done right to left panel as manga is supposed to be, they fact they flipped the image makes the image not match with the one in the films.
That and both versions are quite bizarre because they seem to be a strange mix of both oot and SE.
The ANH one is the best one. It won the Eisner Award.

I tried reading one of those once.
It was really strange, ANH started at the end and went backwards. ;-)

It's a drive in Saturday:
Mangas are printed backward because Japanese is read from top to bottom, and right to left.
Anyways, I have seen these manga before. They do follow the 97 SE, however.

I was joking.
Yep, manga is read right-to-left (same in the Middle East, I believe). I tried reading the adaptation of The Legend of Zelda : Ocarina of Time, but got frustrated with the format and just gave up (the adaptation itself was pretty shoddy, too; it doesn't do the game one iota of justice).

I still am.
I used to have the first one and the first two Infinities but my ex ran off to Wales with them and £10,000 and they were never seen again.
Mangas are not printed backwards. They are only backwards when they are flipped like they used to do. The proper way to enjoy a manga is right to left, it is the way the artist intended.
If you don't read manga regularly it gets hard to get used to at first but believe me i prefer my manga only translated, no censoring or flipping the image is wanted.
In other words the Dark Horse Releases are printed Backwards i know because Pablo Hidalgo i believe did an article once where he used images of the preferred japan release with the images matching the films.
Dark Horse no longer flips or flops its manga, though perhaps it was done at the request of Lucashfilms i don't know

That's not entirely true. They are a mixture of OT and SE, and not a bad mix really. Check out ANH. No Jabba! Check out ROTJ- No Hayden! (ok, so that one wasn't done yet.)

You people take things too seriously.
I even added a winking smiley!

I refuse to acknowledge that this even exists.

LALALALALALALAAAAAAA!! I CAN'T HEAR YOU! ; )
I was joking about that and the Hayden head. I just hate those changes so I try my best to pretend they didn't happen.
I think it is fortunate the manga artist got Jabba closer to his Return of the Jedi look better than either version of the special edition.
The annoying thing about Jedi though is the added beak on the sandpit monster, sarlac is there.
