    563: Classic Marvel Star Wars Comic #60 | Shira Brie - the Original Mara Jade?

    Classic Marvel Star Wars Comics is back! This week we break down Issue #60: "Shira's Story," originally released on March 16, 1982. For those new to our CMSWC sub-series, we are working our way through the original Star Wars comic run published by Marvel from 1977 to 1986. Along the way, we share childhood memories, first-time reactions, artistic observations, and connections to later Star Wars films, series, novels, comics, video games, and even theme parks. Think of it as a Star Wars history lesson. In this issue, "Shira's Story", Shira Brie takes center stage as Luke accompanies her to her homeworld of Shalyvane, where she reveals the tragic story of how the Empire destroyed her family and tribe. Meanwhile, the Rebels launch an attack using stolen Imperial TIE Fighters, Leia wrestles with her feelings about Luke and Shira growing closer, and we begin a discussion about why Shira remains such a fascinating fan-favorite character. You'll also discover why our cover art contains flying banthas… Issue 60: Shira's Story!
