Here's a reference for you to look at different ones that might interest you: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Star_Wars_comic_books

This is my set of roughly chronological Star Wars reading lists. some of the issues are hard to pin down if they have multiple stories from different time periods.

I'm not masochistic enough to run through either of the time lines from dark horse or wikipedia (they aren't the same) and try to get them perfectly in order at the issue level.

I'm missing about 20 issues of Star Wars Empire apparently, but when I get them in, I'll post the updated version in the reading list forum.

my favourites are the Tales of the Jedi stuff from way back in the Old Republic
