Star Wars (Free Comic Book Day 2024)

The Star Wars Free Comic Book Day issue provides two separate stories for fans, one of which ties heavily into recent storylines and one that works as a short standalone adventure, both set between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and The Return of the Jedi.

“Return to Echo Base” gives us Luke, Leia, Lando, and Chewbacca taking the Millennium Falcon back to Hoth to rescue a handful of Rebels who they left behind in their retreat from the Rebel base. There’s not much to the issue but it does feature a short shoot-out with Snowtroopers and our heroes loosing their pursuers in a blizzard by hiding in a cave which Luke remembers from his previous trip to the planet.
