I remember well reading Allan Dean Foster’s Splinter of the Mind’s Eye when i was (much) younger. It was THE FIRST Star Wars expanded universe book and as such hold a very special place in the Star Wars pantheon.
I had never seen the Splinter of the Mind’s Eye comic though..so when Dark Horse included it as part of the 30th Anniversary Hardcover set…i grabbed it.
The art is pretty solid – the story not quite as rich as the Allan Dean Foster novel – but then again it’s not too shabby either. It’s always tough to see Luke and Leia in comic form since we always visualize the actors that played them.
That said this is a fine collection and another must have for all Star Wars fans and it will hold a treasured place on my book shelf.
