Manga vs. Marvel
This is definitely on the geeky side but still very interesting. Comparing how Marvel artists and Manga artist drew some of the key scenes from the episodes 4-6. You get a clear sense of the constraints that the Marvel artists had with their limited space and strict codes from the Comics Code Authority. Also with Manga issue being huge and very gory by American standards Lots of scenes have their drama lavishly drawn out[no pun] over several pages. This scene depicting the destruction of Alderaan is particularly striking.
