Russ Manning pencils and inks; Sunday strip #68; 6-2-1980; image size 22.5" x 15"
1st Sunday strip appearance of Boba Fett! pre-dates Star Wars #42!
This 68th Sunday strip from the Star Wars newspaper comic presents one of the earliest sightings of Boba Fett anywhere. This page was printed not long after “The Empire Strikes Back” was released, and before Fett’s first appearance in Marvel’s Star Wars comic book. On this page, Luke Skywalker and his X-Wing pursue a damaged Tie Fighter piloted by everyone’s favorite bounty hunter, as Luke and Boba are trapped by an alien force on the Frozen World of Ota. An important piece of Star Wars memorabilia for those hardcore collectors of the famed film franchise. Pen and ink. Art is in excellent condition. Signed by Manning.
