List of Star Wars comic books
![]() |
This is a list of Star Wars comic books set in the fictional Star Wars universe. Star Wars comic books were originally published by Marvel Comics, starting with the original series in 1977 and ending in 1984.[1] Blackthorne Publishing published a run of 3-D comics from 1987 to 1988,[2] and Dark Horse Comics published Star Wars comic books from 1991 until 2014. Exclusive publishing rights returned to Marvel Comics in 2015.[1] Almost all Star Wars comics published prior to 2015 have been rebranded as non-canon with the designation Legends.[3]
BBY stands for years before the Battle of Yavin, an in-universe event which occurred during the original Star Wars film.[a] ABY stands for years after the Battle of Yavin.[4]
