ABOUT

The Star Wars Legends continuity at last reaches the end of the early Mepire days, and hurtles straight into A New Hope!
The Empire era concludes — and a New Hope dawns! General Dodonna, one of the Old Republic’s most brilliant strategists, must use all his skills to outmaneuver the Imperial fleet — including commanders who were taught his tactics! Can he overcome the challenges surrounding the creation of a rebel base on Yavin IV? Darth Vader is on the hunt for the stolen Death Star plans — but he doesn’t expect to cross paths with Princess Leia…or Darth Maul! And Imperial pilot Biggs Darklighter is on the run. Discover how Biggs became one of the Rebellion’s greatest X-Wing pilots! Plus: The comics adaptation of A New Hope, and much more!

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
