by RetroZap Staff

Skywalking Through Neverland teams up with Star Wars Artist Randy Martinez to talk Classic Marvel Star Wars Comics from the 70s and 80s. This time, it’s issue #12, “DOOMWORLD!”

In this episode we look at Star Wars #12: “DOOMWORLD!” Well, this comic MUST be good because the title is in all caps! There’s also a ROGUE ONE reference, and you will have to help us settle a big debate on just which Star Destroyer appears in this comic.

Classic Marvel Star Wars #11 – Star Search

Title: “DOOMWORLD!”

Release Date: March 14, 1978

Writer: Archie Goodwin

Consulting Editor: Jim Shooter

Penciller: Carmine Infantino, Terry Austin

Synopsis: Luke Skywalker, C-3PO and R2-D2 are still stranded on the water world Drexel. However they are caught in the middle of a battle between the sea-dragons, one ridden by a Dragon Lord; and hydra craft piloted by Governor Quarg‘s scavengers. The combatants are battling for the prize of Luke’s wrecked ship, as anything mechanical is a rare commodity on this ocean-covered planet. Luke and the droids are captured and brought back to their base where Luke tries to convince Quarg that the droids would be more useful to them intact instead of being stripped down for parts. Meanwhile, Han Solo is leading Crimson Jack and his gang of pirates to the Drexel system under the pretense that there is treasure to be found.

Have fun with us and may the classic comics be with you…
