Star Wars #90

Princess Leia stands at the center of this December 1984 Marvel issue, torn between two worlds — literally split between a robed, peaceful figure and her orange Rebel flight suit, arms outstretched as if weighing an impossible decision. Behind her looms the towering blue specter of Darth Vader, while Luke Skywalker and Han Solo rush in from one side and a robed figure alongside an alien companion stand quietly on the other. Cover art by Bob McLeod and Tom Palmer makes the stakes feel genuinely personal, framing "The Choice!" as one of Leia's most compelling moments in Marvel's long-running Star Wars run.
