The brave pilots of the Rebellion are chased through Yavin’s asteroid field, with only Luke and Han managing to survive the slaughter. Leia and the rest of Alliance command attempt to flee but are captured by Vader.
It is at least weakened enough that it can’t completely destroy Yavin, merely decimating part of it. Wouldn’t ya know, Luke’s proton torpedoes were faulty, merely damaging the innards of the Death Star’s power grid. Luke’s missiles go in, but as the remaining Rebel pilots flee, they realize the explosion they are waiting for is not going to happen. We see panels depicting Luke Skywalker’s daring rescue of Princess Leia, Han Solo coming to save the day, and the Death Star destroyed - but then the story rewinds right to that fateful trench run. Brace yourselves.Ī New Hope uses its first pages to pay homage to the original movie and set up its core conceit. Today, we’re taking a look at the Infinities version of A New Hope, a story of shattered hopes, corrupted ideals, and Yoda Goomba-stomping Palpatine with the Death Star. Three creative teams were given the chance to explore one movie in the original trilogy and break a key moment in its story, creating unique “what if” scenarios. Star Wars Infinities was one of the most exciting projects by Dark Horse Comics.
