“The Empire Strikes Back”

In this 1980 Marvel UK weekly, "The Empire Strikes Back" takes a surprising turn as an alien spaceship descends on Earth, baffling observers with its silent presence. Written by Stan Lee and Larry Lieber, with art by Don Heck and lettering by Terry Szenics, the story unfolds with quiet mystery as the vessel lingers—only to depart, seemingly disappointed that humanity never recognized its true nature. The cover, by Bob Larkin, captures the ship’s eerie stillness in a moment that feels both familiar and uncanny.
