History ComicBook / StarWars

* GovernmentInExile: The Rebel Alliance invokes this with Mon Mothma's title being Chancellor, no doubt a TakeThat to Sheev Palpatine and his illegal politics during his time as [[EvilChancellor Supreme Chancellor]] that allowed him to declare himself Emperor and turn the Republic into an Empire.

* LoveTheSoundOfScreaming: Jabba's seal of business venture with the Empire is to invite Darth Vader and his Stormtroopers on a tour where Jabba's goons fire upon a wild Bantha herd. Jabba mentions how their dying screams are a soothing song and when he gets bored of that, he demands to be taken to the Sarlacc pit for the real entertainment.

* HeroicBSOD: Towards the end of issue 3, the Rebel heroes along with the slaves escape Cymoon 1 but Luke feels depressed because of his performance there (namely that his presence caused the Imperials to mow down on several slaves, and that his attempt to avenge Obi-Wan and [[DramaticIrony his father]] in the first battle with Vader ended in a CurbstompBattle) and that he's not the Jedi he could be. He heads off to Tatoonie by the end of the issue 4, with the intent of finding himself.

* RunningGag: C-3PO once again, gets dismantled.

** Jabba continues annoying Darth Vader [[spoiler: [[ComicBook/StarWarsDarthVader even after Vader has proven he is a threat to Jabba.]] ]] Justified, since he knows Vader won't kill him as long as he continues giving supplies to the Empire.
