A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away Marvel Comics published a comic continuing the tale of Star Wars, revealing what happened next to Han, Luke, Leia, and the rest. It eventually bridged the gap from Star Wars to The Empire Strikes Back. Now, in the semi-booted continuity, Jason Aaron rather delightfully gets to do so again. 
 And, he does a great job of it. His nails the voices of the characters and their interactions, making this feel not just like a Star Wars comic, but like a classic Star Wars comic. At the same time, he gets the benefit that those original Star Wars writers didn't: he gets to know what comes next. So, we see a growing relationship between Han and Leia (while Alan Dean Foster was plotting romance between Luke and Leia in the original Star Wars sequel novel), we get to see Luke learning more about the Force, and we even get to see an authentic Jabba the Hutt. About the only flaw in the story is that it sometimes becomes too decompressed (particularly in the long action sequence of issues #1-3). 
 This is all complemented by John Cassady's art, which is superb. I've always liked his work, but I think Star Wars proves that science-fiction is his expertise. He also does a great job (probably in conjunction with Aaron's script) of giving everything a cinematic feel. I can sometimes hear the various Star Wars themes while reading this comic.
