Biggs Darklighter

Few characters carry the weight of heroic legacy quite like Biggs Darklighter, who made his comics debut in the landmark Bronze Age release Marvel Special Edition Featuring Star Wars #1 (1977), brought to life by the legendary team of Roy Thomas and Howard Chaykin. Arriving at the very dawn of Marvel's Star Wars era, Biggs shares the page with some of the most iconic figures in science-fiction comics history — Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia Organa, and Darth Vader himself — which tells you everything about the extraordinary company he keeps. With appearances spanning an impressive 32 years across titles like Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back Weekly, and two collector-recognized key issues to his name, Biggs represents a piece of comics history that any serious Bronze Age or Star Wars enthusiast will want on their shelf.
