Han Solo and the so-called Starhoppers
of Aduba-3 ride banthas toward the little village terrorized by the
Cloud-Riders. Along the way, they rescue a pretty young village girl
named Merri from a bunch of flying bird-men. Han, being Han, flirts
with her until Amaiza busrolls him in front of her family when they
reach the village.
Meanwhile, Luke and the droids reach
the isolated Drexel system, checks in with Yavin 4, and then the
signal cuts out. Worried, Leia rushes off to find Luke and rescue him
from whatever it is.
Back on Aduba-3, Merri's crazy old
grandfather says the mercs aren't necessary because he's got a
solution for the problem. Han blows him off, and then the
Cloud-Riders attack, precipitating a lengthy action sequence where
the Starhoppers suffer their first casualty: the droid Effie.
And then the crazy old man summons a
giant monster, which was NOT in Kurosawa.
But should have been.
Its an action-oriented issue, which is
pretty good, but there's not much to say about the details.
