I still have that (Minus the audio portion) and I once had the giant-size Star Wars comic which told the whole story of the movie. I knew the comic before finally seeing the movie and I was scared as HELL to see Obi-Wan's death in live-action because the comic-version freaked me out big time:
Spoiler:


As you might expect, I was both confounded and relieved to see how simple this "death" turned out to be on film.

Regarding Obi-Wan: that is pure nightmare fuel.

Regarding Darth Vader: total dad pose slightly kicking a loose paver on the patio. "Huh. Honey, would you look at this."

Still have this from my comic book collecting days when I was a kid ...

I would love an omnibus of these kinds of older comics based on other IPs that didn't run that long.
