From the back of the zine:
Was Lady Larkspur right? Would he never get off Palentar alive? He'd survived so much --- a crash landing into a very hostile territory, a near drowning, a deadly disease, and attack from a vicious sea monster, and capture by an interplanetary slaver... not to mention the notorious Gambean Gladiator Pit -- all that now HIM. Luke knew he'd be out for recent, Luke Skywalker had, after all, dismembered him. He was weak, but he would have to face him. Above all, he couldn't let Darth Vader know the location of the Princess. Maybe his life would be enough to satisfy this Dark Lord of Sith. "Ben Kenobi give me strength" was his whispered prayer as he walked toward his doom.... THE FORCE WAS THE ONLY THING THAT COULD SAVE HIM NOW!!!
