While fans are delighting to the new stories being told through Marvel Comics with the various Star Wars properties, they’re also looking to make sure that those that thrilled to the first adventures the company put out back in the 70’s get their due as well. Set for release on May 6th, 2015, they’ve got the Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope newly colored edition coming out.
“Weeks before George Lucas’ first STAR WARS film hit theaters – Marvel gave eager fans their very first look at Luke Skywalker, boldly asking “Will he save the galaxy, or destroy it?” Now, 30 years later, you may know the answer, but that doesn’t spoil the excitement of reliving this now classic adaptation like you’ve never seen before – including scenes that never made it to the silver screen!”
The release brings the original work out in a completely remastered form for the modern age with new coloring by Chris Sotomayor. The release is being done in an an oversized hardcover format with a new cover by famed artist Adi Granov.
And we’ve also got further confirmation that the other editions will be coming later this year with The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. So check out the coloring and remastering job below!
