Marvel Star Wars Comic History (Continued)

Charles Lippincott has expanded his recounting of the history of Marvel Star Wars comics with two more parts this month.  I had posted parts 1 and parts 2 in an earlier posting.  This is fascinating reading.  He goes into the details about the problems with Howard Chaykin and includes a terrific interview/email exchange with Roy Thomas.  He also reveals the print run for Star Wars #1 as being 250,000 copies!  You need to go read part 3 and part 4 for yourself.  Part 1 and part 2 has been moved to his blog from facebook as well.

His other postings are also very informative and I highly recommend perusing his blog, From the Desk of Charles Lippincott.
