HAN SOLO #1 ARRIVES, AND STARWARS.COM TALKS SCOUNDRELS AND STORY WITH ITS ACCLAIMED WRITER.

Han Solo swooped into the Battle of Yavin at the right exact time to help Luke Skywalker blow up the Death Star.

His story in the years between the medal ceremony on Yavin and Echo Base on Hoth has been unfolding in the pages of Marvel’s comics, and we’ll see even more of it in the Han Solo comic book miniseries.
