This series is dedicated in loving memory of Charley Lippincott, who George Lucas hired in late 1975 to join the first Star Wars production as Vice President of Advertising, Publicity, Promotion & Merchandising. He is responsible for Star Wars comics becoming a reality with Marvel! The Force will be with him, always.
