I was at the library the other day and I found the entire old Star Wars

trilogy as manga. the three movies are done by differen artists, so the

continuity isn't so good, but some of the art, especially in the comic books of

the first one is very nice. It's kinda funny seeing what the different

characters look like as manga characters. :dance:

Those came out a few years ago and I thought it was something to see how Star Wars would look if it had been done by film makers or anime producers in Japan if it had been done that way.

*Goes all Zombie-like* Must have... Star Wars manga.... BTW, there's a manga for episodes 1 and 2 as well. At least 1. I'm not sure about 2...

I've read all of these except the episode 1 volumes. I don't think episode 2 mnaga exists.....yet. They were good. But man, Return of the Jedi had some of the worst manga art I have ever seen!!

I reeeeally want to get these. but I'm not happy with the format...there are like three volumes for each MOVIE. that's a lot of freaking money to spend.

I have two of the "A New Hope" volumes and I love them - but not enough to buy the others. I didn't like the art on the other two anyway. ^^;

I saw the ep4 ones. They tried, but there is just something unnatural about seeing manga notations and conventions used with Star Wars. It's not one I'd do...

Our library has the first in the Empire Strikes Back series.
Please,let's hope that no-one decides to do the PRequels in manga form.
I for one can't stand the thought of a Chibi version of Jar Jar!
