Star Wars at Comic-Con

A long time ago, in a San Diego Comic-Con far, far away . . . no one knew of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Darth Vader, or Star Wars at all. The year is 1976; the now iconic film franchise's first appearance at Comic-Con. With little more than some flyers, a poster board, and a card table, the Star Wars team gave convention attendees a sneak peek of the modest, little film set for release the next year.

Take a look back in time at Star Wars' Comic-Con debut, a far cry from the huge floor space they now call home each year in San Diego.
