A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... The evil Galactic Empire exerts its oppressive power over the universe. With the Death Star, a space station capable of destroying planets, the Empire's dominance seems unchallenged. The only force standing against them is the Rebel Alliance, a group fighting to restore peace and freedom. When the Rebels successfully steal plans for the Death Star, they are pursued by Darth Vader, the Empire's enforcer. Princess Leia Organa, a secret member of the Rebellion, hides the plans within the droid R2-D2 before her capture. As Leia is taken to the Death Star, R2-D2 and C-3PO escape to Tatooine, a desert planet. Here, the droids meet Luke Skywalker, a young farmer who soon learns of Leia's predicament. Having suffered under the Empire's tyranny, Luke resolves to rescue her. Joined by Jedi master Obi-Wan Kenobi, smugglers Han Solo and Chewbacca, and the droids, Luke sets out on his mission, unaware that they might be the new hope the galaxy needs. Star Wars: A New Hope is an adaptation of the 1977 American film Star Wars. The manga's cover art was created by Noriyoshi Ohrai.
