Notable Stuff:

• Four different covers were created for this issue. Each was issued in a different quantity, and one was only available to subscribers. Most common is the Stormtrooper variant, which appeared on 40% of the printed covers. Next are the Boba Fett and Dash Rendar covers, which each comprised 25% of the printed covers. The rarest variant is the IG-88 cover, which appears on only 10% of all printed issues and could not be found on the newsstand editions; they were randomly mailed only to subscribers. When combined, the four covers form a single continuous image.
