c.mid–late 1978 | age 9–10 My friends and I used to be baffled by that word Detention. Or maybe it was just me? We’d be playing a scene from Star Wars and all sorts of odd variations would come up.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

102: “He keeps on saying, ‘she’s here'”
1978 | age 9-10 This page has some fun things in it, including a very un-characteristically irritable line of dialogue from Ben! Poor Artoo, he’s just trying to tell them something fairly important—you know?—about the Princess—who sent them on this[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
101: Hong Kong Chewie!
(early-mid 1978 | 9-10 yrs old) Savour this page reader… savourrrr. Ok, never mind. I will for you. These ones are always my favourites. And get this! Chewie’s doing his 1970s Kung-Fu moves! Art Notes This has got to be early to[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
c.1982? | age 14? Not very funny is it? I didn’t even finish off Solo’s arm. My First Convention! For want of something else to write about, do you know that we’re bringing our 4 year old son to a Star[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
c.1981?|age 12 or 13? I was trying to be a bit clever putting in the THX-1138 bit. In fact until a few years ago, I believed that this is what he said in the film. He actually says “TK-421”. My[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
097: “Who’s the more foolish?”
c.1983?|age 14/15? Panel 1 is lifted from Chaykin’s version. I don’t like Han in that one. He looks like Robert Wagner in Hart to Hart. “And togedder… dey was moider!” Wacka—wacka, chicka-wah-wah! I liked Wagner in one of the Austin Powers movies—oh[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
093: “C’mon you creeps!” Millennium Falcon Captured!
c.Early 1978/age 9 or 10 The Millennium Falcon goes in arse-first. Now this is more like it, readers! It’s one of my favourite pages of the whole book. I love it because of: “C’mon you creeps!” “Yeah, we’ve captured a ship!”[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Look at the SIZE of that thing! c.Early 1978/age 9 or 10 Is Han referring to the size of the Death Star or Luke’s huge 3D chin? And observe dear reader, if you will: the importance of the arrangement of your[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
early 1978/age 9? “But… I only just blow-dried my hair!” There are a few things that puzzle me about this page. It was first drawn in ’78 but Han has been retrospectively doctored–maybe 2 or 3 years on. And a lovely-haired-Luke has been added[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
(early) 1978|age 9 “Full reverse Chewie”—and keep on shakin’ it! Solo decides to turn tail and get the hell out of there and then… POW!—the Millennium Falcon is grabbed by the Death Star’s tractor beam. And as always, these very oldest pages keep[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
