The True Believers line takes you to a comics galaxy far, far away…

With The Rise of Skywalker coming out Dec. 20, Marvel is busting out the retro with a quintet of True Believers dollar reprints that largely spotlight the House of Ideas’ original Bronze Age comics series (plus Droids and a more recent issue).

We’re talking work by the likes of Walt Simonson, Archie Goodwin, Carmine Infantino, Larry Hama and more.

Dig these five selections coming in December:

TRUE BELIEVERS: STAR WARS – THE HUNTER #1

As fun as this is, there’s more: Marvel will also be putting out the Star Wars #1 Facsimile Edition, which, unlike the True Believers line, features the original ads and whatnot. Click here for the full rundown on that.
