Publishers

Marvel

Charles Lippincott, Lucasfilm's publicity supervisor, initially approached Stan Lee in 1975 about publishing a Star Wars comic book prior to the film's release to appeal to the film's most likely audience. However, Lee declined to consider such a proposal until the film was completed, and was only persuaded otherwise in a second meeting arranged by Roy Thomas, who wanted to edit the series. Considering movie tie-in comics rarely sold well at that time, Lee negotiated a publishing arrangement with no royalties to Lucasfilm until sales exceeded 100,000 at which point legal arrangements could be revisited.

Marvel Comics Group published a series of Star Wars comic books from 1977 to 1986, lasting 107 issues and 3 annuals. According to former Marvel Editor-In-Chief Jim Shooter, the strong sales of Star Wars comics saved Marvel financially in 1977 and 1978. Marvel's Star Wars series was one of the industry's top selling titles in 1979 and 1980. The only downside for Marvel was that the 100,000 copy sales quota was surpassed quickly, allowing Lippincott to renegotiate the royalty arrangements from a position of strength.

Most issues were original stories; however, #1-6 adapted the events of Star Wars and #39-44 adapted The Empire Strikes Back. Marvel also published a mini-series adapting Return of the Jedi.

It was also reprinted in the UK as a weekly black and white comics anthology by Marvel UK which, in addition to the Star Wars strips, included other Marvel strips such as The Micronauts, Deathlok, Star Lord, Warlock and Tales of the Watcher. The weekly UK issues split the stories from the US monthly issues into smaller installments, and it usually took two or three weekly issues to complete a US monthly issue. However, the UK comic also published original Star Wars stories by British creators. Star Wars Weekly #1 was published with a free cut-out X-Wing Fighter on 8 February 1978. It became The Empire Strikes Back Weekly from issue #118 in May 1980, and then became a monthly title from issue #140 in November 1980, reverting to the title Star Wars with issue #159 in July 1982. The monthly comic ran until issue #171 in July 1983, when the numbering was reset at #1 for Return of the Jedi Weekly, which was the first time the UK comic had been printed in colour. This is the title and format that remained until the last issue (#155) published in June 1986. Issues #47-#50 and #57-#59 contained material originally published in Pizzazz Magazine. Issue #60 was the first original Star Wars story published by Marvel UK. This completed the fourth and final part of "The Kingdom of Ice" story from issues #57-#59, which was not completed in Pizzazz due to the publication's cancellation. Further original content was published in issues #94-#99, #104-#115, #149, #153-#157. Throughout this eight year period Marvel UK also published several Star Wars annuals and specials.

On January 3, 2014, it was announced that the Star Wars comics license will return to Marvel Comics in 2015.

On May 19, 2014, it was announced that Marvel Comics will introduce two new ongoing Star Wars comic series.

On July 26, 2014, it was announced that Marvel Comics will launch two Star Wars monthly titles and one Star Wars limited series: Star Wars, Star Wars: Darth Vader and Star Wars: Princess Leia.

On August 27, 2014, it was announced that Marvel Comics will publish Volume 1 of Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The Empire in April 2015.

On September 23, 2014, it was revealed that Marvel Comics has plans to launch a comic book series set in different time periods in the Star Wars universe.

On October 11, 2014, it was announced that Marvel Comics will launch a new series, Star Wars: Kanan, in April 2015.

Dark Horse

In 1991, Dark Horse started publishing Star Wars comics, initially with mini-series such as Dark Empire, Tales of the Jedi and Crimson Empire.

In 1998, they began publishing Star Wars: Republic an ongoing series until it was replaced by Star Wars: Dark Times in 2006.

In 2002, they began publishing Star Wars: Empire another ongoing series until it was replaced by Star Wars: Rebellion in 2006.

In 2006, they also began publishing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Star Wars: Legacy, two new ongoing series.

In 2010, Knights of the Old Republic and Legacy ended, and Dark Horse moved to a different style of publishing their Star Wars comic books. Instead of publishing ongoing series, they began publishing "series of mini-series", which is essentially the same strategy as before, with the exception that a series would be published as various mini-series, and if the series was not doing well, Dark Horse could just not have further mini-series. This also allowed Dark Horse to publish a large amount of Star Wars series while not overloading fans' pockets. A list of these series includes:

• Star Wars: Agent of the Empire, a series set a few years before Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, and focusing on an Imperial Intelligence agent named Jahan Cross.
• Star Wars: Blood Ties, a series set in varying time periods that shows the bonds between certain characters in the saga, such as Jango Fett and Boba Fett.
• Star Wars: Dark Times, a series set in the years after Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, and showing former characters from Star Wars: Republic after Order 66.
• Star Wars: Darth Vader, a series set almost immediately after Revenge of the Sith, and showing how Darth Vader is dealing with his past as Anakin Skywalker.
• Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi, a series set thousands of years before Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, and showing the origins of the Jedi and the Sith.
• Star Wars: Invasion, a series set during the early days of the Yuuzhan Vong War, and dealing with how the New Republic is faring.
• Star Wars: Jedi, a series set a few decades before The Phantom Menace, and dealing with Qui-Gon Jinn in an undocumented area of his life.
• Star Wars: Knight Errant, a series set 1,000 years before The Phantom Menace, and dealing with a lone Jedi's war against the Sith.
• Star Wars: The Old Republic, a series set around the events of the game Star Wars: The Old Republic, and showing crucial backstory to the game.
• The Star Wars, a series about George Lucas's original draft for Star Wars

Dark Horse has also published mini-series adapting Episode I: The Phantom Menace, Episode II: Attack of the Clones, Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and The Thrawn Trilogy.

Tokyopop

In 1998 to 1999, there was a series of Japanese books adapting the original trilogy and Star Wars: The Phantom Menace as Manga with all the typical narrative and stylistic characteristics of the form.
