Publisher’s description

R2-D2 and C-3PO search for Luke and Leia, but will their quest leave them dismantled on a decidedly anti-droid Gambler's World? Dark Horse has unearthed a series of strips by the famed Russ Manning and presents them here for the first time ever in color! These strips have been reformatted and expertly retouched by Rick Hoberg, who worked with Manning on the original strips. As a special treat, Star Wars fan and Madman creator Michael Allred has created a classic color cover for this issue.
