Because people think it's Boba... It's an interesting story in that book. Princess Leia believes he's Boba Fett, so the confusion is intentional by the artist. It's the first Planet Mandalore, first Mandalorians (non-Boba Fett), and Boba Fett does appear on a centerfold that shows all three surviving Mandalorians.

I know but it's been called Origin of Boba for years and people (including me until a year or so ago) have always thought it was him on the cover. That's the reason of the original price bump and the original iconic cover status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the reason of the original price bump and the original iconic cover status. It's possible that it is Boba Fett on the cover of Star Wars #68. There are Wookiee braids on the shoulder, and the "other Mandalorian" featured throughout the story doesn't have Wookiee braids. As far as the Origin of Boba Fett goes, the centerfold that I posted has the story... Boba Fett was the Chief Officer of the Mandalore Supercommandos, and one of only 3 survivors when 212 other Mandalorian Supercommandos died in the Clone Wars. Boba Fett chose a life of bounty hunting all over the galaxy, and the other two survivors returned to Mandalore. jcjames, mysterymachine, silversurfer275 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macedoniagreece Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 (edited) All this Punisher talk on the media this last week , I am wondering if some of these will pick up. I hope Marvel doesn't do a crazy thing and retire the Punisher. Edited January 13, 2021 by Macedoniagreece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Marvel doesn't do a crazy thing and retire the Punisher. had a conversation last weekend at the LCS about that, simply said that it was up for discussion of retirement in that the Punisher may be just a "supporting" character? seemingly I don't see too much a difference in a sonic blast and a "bullet" when it comes to a paper drawing. still would translate in my brain same type interpretation it's homeostasis on paper give me a change of magazine and light them up!

the blob Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 So I was thinking of sending my SW 1s into CGC because even mid-grade ones seem to do well in a slab and I think i have some around 8.5 - 9.0 and then I see this, which I'd think would come back as a 7.0 from CGC, WTF?: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Marvel-Star-Wars-1-First-Printing-CGC-worthy-/154275811788?hash=item23eb8e11cc%3Ag%3AhMcAAOSw4Z1f69yE&nma=true&si=BZbpsjZvXBDBh7scMVfgI%2BAabNw%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 a little better, but over $300!!!: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Star-Wars-1-A-NEW-HOPE-Vol-1-1976-HIGH-GRADE-NEWSSTAND-UNREAD-CGC-READY/184616200675?hash=item2afbfba9e3:g:NNYAAOSwo79f-7aC $207 (shipped) for a 9.0: https://www.ebay.com/itm/STAR-WARS-1-CGC-9-0-1977-MARVEL-COMICS-FIRST-PRINTING-A-NEW-HOPE-NO-RESERVE/383799118618?hash=item595c35cb1a:g:zTMAAOSw6Hdfpa0B Neither of the two raws is going to be a 9.0, even with a press...
