4.0 out of 5 stars Great way to introduce reading to young ones., May 30, 2004

I was looking for a Star Wars book to read to a strongly visual son, who is ADHD when I stumbled upon this book set of the original trilogy. A comic book of the Star Wars trilogy! What a great way to share a book with a story I know he likes. This reminded me of a series of comic books that my grandmother had. Someone had made classic novels into comic so children could share the classics with adults and no rely on TV or movies solely. This started my collection of all the Darkhorse star Wars comics and I think they have done an excellent job over the years.

This 1996 series was done in comic strip style art, which is not my favorite, but matches much of the early Star Wars comic strip work. The inking is bright and vibrant, which was just perfect for my son. The binding made in Canada were solid and have held up to some abuse.

As for the story, it is of course abbreviated to fit into about 90 pages full of pictures. As far as I was concerned, nothing I cared about was skipped.

This 3 movie collection is great for collectors or for those who actually wish to share the classic story with young ones.

My comics are not missing any pages that I know of.

Very nicely done, I think I liked the comic books as much or more than the movies! Can't say anything about the printing the guy below got, my pages are all fine!

I just recieved this set. For some very strange reason, the first pages of each story are missing.
