Its not too long a go I read this one. I admit, it has its charm but to be honest, art is quite wonky throughout: Proportions vary, ships barely resemble what they are supposed to be and so forth. I would recommend only for huge SW fans or people who feel nostalgia for these old Marvel comics. I honestly think these got a lot better once movie adaptations were out of the way and they started doing original stories.
