☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn the 25th century, humanity’s quest for a new home leads to a startling discovery about Earth’s unique value—just as a new cobalt fuel promises to power their search. Star Wars Weekly #96 continues its bold exploration of galactic consequences with "Way of the Wookiee!, Part 3: Switch!"—a story drawn with precision by Don Heck and lettered by Artie Simek. The cover, a dynamic blend of Carmine Infantino’s pencils and Mike Esposito’s inks, captures the tension of a universe on the brink.
In "[Way of the Wookiee!, Part 3] Switch!", Han Solo finds himself caught between loyalty and survival when he agrees to help Chewbacca smuggle the fugitive Hronk from Imperial forces. With betrayal from within and the Empire closing in, Han makes a desperate move to ditch his cargo—only to face the consequences when Jabba the Hutt demands answers for the missing spice.
Deathlok moves through the wreckage of a forgotten warzone, driven only by a single purpose: find Major Simon Ryker and end him. Meanwhile, Ryker dispatches his elite forces and a monstrous super-tank—its power fueled by Nina’s mind linked to his omni-computer—into the same deadly terrain. As the hunt converges, the line between hunter and hunted blurs in a tense stand-off that leaves no room to run.
In the 25th century, a crew aboard a starship ventures into the unknown, driven by the promise of a new home—only to discover that Earth’s fragile beauty may be unmatched. As they test a mysterious cobalt fuel, the journey becomes a quiet reckoning about what it truly means to belong.
