Droids #5

In "Separated," Threepio and Artoo—divided on the planet R-Duba—each find themselves caught in a dangerous conspiracy against the planet’s rightful ruler, despite being sold to different masters. Written by George Caragonne and brought to life by Mary Wilshire’s art, Al Williamson’s inks, George Roussos’s colors, and Grace Kremer’s lettering, this 1986 Marvel adventure sees the iconic droids navigating perilous paths that unexpectedly converge. The cover, by John Romita, captures their shared struggle in a moment of tense isolation.
