Summary:
  Six years after the Battle of Endor, the fight for freedon rages on. Darth Vader is dead, but a reborn Empire -- under a mysterious new leader -- strikes back at the struggling Rebel Alliance. Massive World Devestators, more powerful and unstoppable than the Death Star, ravage entire planets. The ruthless heirs of Jabba the Hutt have placed a monumental price on the heads of Princess Leia and her husband, Han Solo. Along with Lando, Chewbacca, Artoo, Threepio, and other old allies, Han and Leia struggle to protect the future for their unborn child.

But their greatest enemy may be their closest friend: Luke Skywalker...

Review:
Good:  Story is pretty good. Few complaints, though I've heard horror stories about the Emperor coming back again... and again... just another time... oh heck once more for old times sakes... But this first series was good.

Bad:  Artwork... Liberal use of shadows to distort facial features, good set-up? Or horrible excuse? Lando Calrissian reminded me of Tom Selleck more than Billy Dee Williams... and the others were even worse...
