☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Guardian of Forever!" — the seventh chapter of a gripping arc in Star Wars Weekly #113 — Luke and his companions uncover a forgotten city beneath Alashan, its advanced ruins hiding secrets far older than the Empire. With the mysterious creature from above hunting them through the cavernous halls, they’re forced into a desperate fight that seals their escape, leaving them trapped in the ancient, echoing depths. Written by Chris Claremont and brought to life with bold, dynamic art by Carmine Infantino, this issue blends suspense and discovery, with inks by Gene Day and colors by Howard Bender, all under the sharp lettering of Irving Watanabe. The cover by Carmine Infantino and Dan Green captures the tension perfectly — a 12p UK comic from 1980 that remains a standout in the early Star Wars saga.
In the buried ruins beneath Alashan, Luke and his companions uncover an ancient, abandoned city—only to find themselves trapped when the creature from above hunts them through its crumbling halls, cutting off their only way out.
