Description: For sale today is the out-of-print (oop) Dark Horse Comics trade paperback (tpb)/graphic novel The Star Wars (Lucas Draft) by J. W. Rinzler and Mike Mayhew, published in 2014. Collects Star Wars (2013 Dark Horse) Lucas Draft #0-8. Written by J. W. Rinzler. Art by Mike Mayhew. Cover by Nick Runge. Before Star Wars, there was The Star Wars! This is the official adaptation of George Lucas's roughdraft screenplay for what would become Star Wars - the film that changed motion pictures and the world. You'll see familiar characters and places - but not all is the same in this long-ago and faraway galaxy. Still, strap yourself in for high adventure and lazersword duels, Jedi Knights, Princess Leia, Han Solo, and a battle to defeat the evil Empire! I am not a comics grader, but I try to be as thorough as possible when assessing books for any flaws. I don't believe in using a number grade system - to me they are mostly utilized as a method to be ambiguous about exact condition and/or individual imperfections - but I do attempt to describe anything other than minor cover shelf-scuffing/scratching in detail. If a certain flaw discussed below does not mention that it affects inside pages, then it does not. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This copy is in very good condition, with a solid spine and excellent overall inside pages (photo#13 example). Other than a spine corner indent, it has some lighter signs of wear, all of which primarily affect its externals. **Photo#3:-Spine edge: 4 tiny-to-small color break patches around its middle. **Photo#4: -Upper spine corner: Scuffing, ding/indent, causes light ~1/2" indent/depression around it on the front cover (photo#10 w/illumination), and a moderate one around it on the back cover (photo#11 w/illumination). **Photo#5: -Lower spine corner: Light scuffing. **Photo#6: -Front cover top edge: Little if any shelf-wear/scuffing.-Outer corner: Tiny scuff. **Photo#7:-Front cover bottom edge: Light shelf-scuffing/wear along most of it.-Outer corner: Tiny scuff/bend, goes thru ~5 pages lightly. **Photo#8: -Back cover top edge: Little if any shelf-wear/scuffing.-Outer corner: Tiny scuff. **Photo#9:-Back cover bottom edge: ~1/2" scuff near its middle, otherwise some light if any shelf-wear/scuffing around.-Outer corner: Tiny scuff/bend, goes thru ~5 pages lightly. **Additionally: Front cover possesses a light ~1/2" indent/depression near its middle (photo#10 w/illumination), shows as a light indent on ~1/5 pages mostly under direct lighting. Some small/light scuff patches around the title, and another towards/around the bottom outer corner. Back cover has a light ~3/4" scratch near the spine edge's middle. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- While this copy is not for the serious collector searching for a pristine copy, for a more casual reader looking to attain this older /hard-to-find book at a cheap price it would be perfect. I both buy to read as well as sell TPBs on here, so I understand how aggravating it is to receive a comic damaged in transit. I always pack books firmly between pieces of cardboard (among other materials/layers) via Gemini Comic mailers or bubble mailers depending on size; usually utilizing boxes for larger lots. If you have any questions or would like any additional photos, feel free to let me know. I'm always happy to combine shipping costs - either message me before completing purchase for a pre-payment price adjustment, or alternatively I can provide a refund afterwards. Thanks, and have a tremendous day!
