Description: This is the first appearance of now-legendary characters Grand Admiral Thrawn and Mara Jade in comic book form. We recently saw Thrawn in the live-action Disney series Ahsoka, but we haven't seen Mara Jade... yet. The story is adapted from the mega popular Timothy Zahn novel of the same name. It was the first new material to appear (in 1991), years after Return of the Jedi was released in 1983 and continued the Star Wars saga. This copy was recently graded 9.0 by CBCS. In addition... throwing in raw, ungraded copies of issues 2 - 4 and 6 (missing issue 5) that are, in my best estimation, at least 9.0 (Very Fine/Near Mint) or better. Except for issue #4, which does have a very thin smudge (?) line running across the "a" and the "r" in "Star" in the title on the cover (see pic, zoom in for a closeup). Fully ungraded "FV/NM" sets have recently sold for $100 - $125. Current Fair Market Value (FMV) for 9.0 graded issues of 2 - 4 and 6 are: #2 - $38, #3 - $70, #4 - $65, and #6 - $65. Everything for sale comes directly from my own personal collection. I don't have a "store," and I'm not buying/selling on the regular. Not that there's anything wrong with that! After all these decades... it's just time to clean out the padded playroom! I'm happy to answer any questions and provide additional photos if needed. I will combine shipping (upon request) if you're purchasing other items at the same time. Returns will only be accepted IF and ONLY if the merchandise was damaged during shipment, so be 100% sure before purchasing. Buyer's remorse is not an excuse. Thanks!
