™ and ©1995 Lucasfilm Ltd.

America experienced a resurgence in Star Wars interest in the early 1990s. Among Dark Horse Comics’ many Star Wars releases was The Vandelhelm Mission, written by Archie Goodwin and penciled by Al Williamson. Han Solo feels inadequate after the fall of the Empire. He feels that anyone can do the jobs that he is charged with doing. that is, until Lando Calrissian arrives at the starship yards of Fondor, where the finest ships in the galaxy are built. Lando relieves Han from his duties of improving production at the yards. Han’s new assignment is to accompany two very important children from a former Imperial prison planet back to the yards. It is believed that the children are good luck for production. What seems to be an easy mission turns out to test the skills of the once Correllian pirate. Han finishes the mission with a new feeling of importance.
