Owner's Description

Star Wars 10: Behemoth from the World Below.

Writer: Donald F. Glut, Roy Thomas and Howard Chaykin, Layouts: Alan Kupperberg, Penciller: Howard Chaykin and Tom Palmer, Inker: Tom Palmer, Cover artist: Rick Hoberg.

After completing ten issues of Star Wars, Roy Thomas left the series. For years, it was not completely understood why he left the series. In 2012, an article known as Comic Book Legends Revealed #391 (source: https://www.cbr.com/comic-book-legends-revealed-391/ ) provided insight though. The article stated:

"Thomas' run on Star Wars ended with issue #10, and while there were a number of different reasons why Thomas left the title (including slight irritation over the fact that the comic creators were not making very much from the massive financial success of the Marvel adaptation of Star Wars), one thing he noted in his article about the Marvel adaptation of Star Wars in Alter Ego #68 was that Lucas had some issues with the story (although it had been pre-approved before Thomas started on it) and he particularly disliked Jaxxon."
