IDS includes this issue as a researched milestone rather than claiming that every issue from the full Star Wars comic history is already normalized. Milestone status can reflect a launch, finale, first appearance, crossover role, notable creator credit, adaptation, or collector significance.

How to identify the physical issue

Match the series title, issue number, publisher, publication date, cover designation, printing, and barcode or indicia before assigning rarity or value. A variant cover normally contains the same interior story unless the publisher identifies it as a separate printing or edition.

The image displayed here is deliberately labeled as representative unless IDS has exact issue-cover data. The primary source remains the authority for exact issue art and creator credits.

Why milestone issues matter

Comic issues are both stories and physical objects. Their significance can come from narrative events, first appearances, publication timing, cover programs, scarcity, creator work, or the later history of characters introduced on the page.

IDS keeps those dimensions separate so collector importance does not automatically become a claim about narrative importance, and vice versa.
