Star Wars: Empire Vol. 2 TPB Comic Compilation

By: Paul Chadwick, Doug Wheatley, Tomas GiorelloCover Artist: Brian HortonBefore Luke Skywalker, the Rebel Alliance had another hero: Biggs Darklighter. For the first time, in this soft cover 144-page serialized comic compilation (Empire: #8-12 and 15), the full story of Luke's boyhood friend is revealed; from his departure from Tatooine to attend the Imperial Academy, to his decision to lead a mutiny against the Empire and join the Rebellion, to the fateful attack on the Death Star. Writer Paul Chadwick has resurrected scenes that were shot for Star Wars: A New Hope, but which ended up on the cutting room floor, and extrapolated from them the life and times of Luke Skywalker's best friend; and artist Doug Wheatley has produced stunning artwork for one of the most acclaimed Star Wars comics stories ever. An essential companion to A New Hope, and an exciting addition to any Star Wars library! Also included: "The Short, Happy Life of Roons Sewell," by Chadwick and artist Tomás Giorello. A revealing look at one of the early leaders of the Rebel Alliance; a man haunted by a dark past and driven to a heroic, but self-destructive fate. ISBN: 1-56971-975-6
