	Their TPB are expensive, by Aust standards. Though TFAW will have some half price, I'm sure. The corny Doctor Who special effects are endearing, but flat art of that magnitude, I just can't digitalise it. -----signature----- Rock-a-by baby, on the treetop, Beaming with pride, the filth they hold, But when the wind blows, my temper implodes, High above a pit, filled with sharkticons, Down will come hardcover addicts, beaming no more. ©

	Yes, there are TPBs (seven of them, I think), put out by Dark Horse under the name "A Long Time Ago . . ." -----signature----- http://churchofbrad.com/jsarek/ Proud recipient of Halagad_Ventor's MOO (Master of Obscurity) Award, Brett_Bass's Spiffy Crown™, and Thrawn McEwok's "Ohh...?

	Sometimes Mile High Comics has a really good sale on TPBs (30-40% off), and they will ship internationally. -----signature----- The Hard-to-Find Comic Book List Thread http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=6102495 The Unofficial and Parody Comics List Thread http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=6307340

	The Marvel series rocked!!!!! The TPBs reprint all 107 issues + 3 Annuals. They do not include the Return of the Jedi adaptation or the material which appeared in the Marvel UK series but not the US series (i.e. the strips originally printed in Marvel's entertainment mag Pizzazz, a pre-TESB run including Wookiee World and others, and the UK-originated stories by the likes of Alans Moore and Davis). The Marvel stories were a bit wacky at times, but to those of us who grew up during the time of the OT, they were an essential part of the Star Wars experience.

	I think the Dark Horse collections screwed up the coloration. -----signature----- Fey'la was right! Bring Asyr Sei'lar to justice!

	Where do the comics stand canon-wise? Are they all part of the canon?

	Hit up TFAW like Excellence said, the nick and dent are by all means fine with maybe one little flaw. -----signature----- Let's Go Flyers!

	Was there ever a believable fix for Jabba that wasn't really Jabba? There's suprisingly very few continuity errors throughout the Marval series, almost none. -----signature----- Wipe them out. All of them. -Darth Sidious
