This is the Starraker.
It looks a lot like an Eagle at the front to me.
Starraker first appeared in March 1980 in a Marvel Star Wars Weekly comic and was drawn by Carmine Infantino and Gene Day.
You can read more about the ship here on Wookipeadia. Anyone remember Star Wars weekly?
I've got hundreds of copies of Star Wars weekly in the attic. They were reprints of the early Marvel Star Wars comics and mostly bloody awful. The covers bore absolutely no relevance to the story and the artwork was weak and slapdash. Still, at the time, that's all there was and I lapped it up for years! Bill
ReplyDeleteSo we're the Marvel Star Wars comics harder to get Bill?
DeleteKinda looks like the Hawk Mark IX from Space: 1999
ReplyDeleteIt does Scott. Yes. Hope you're OK.
DeleteI'm fine!
DeleteJust a little busy. Got cartoons to draw on the weekend! :)
But, it's always fun to catch up with what you guys have been up to!
Best of luck with the cartoons Scott.
