In this sixth and final installment, Confessor and I discuss issues #95-107, featuring the slow car crash that was the end of the Jo Duffy run and the end of the Marvel Star Wars series, as interference from LucasFilm and one very misguided editorial decision regarding a fill-in issue led to an abrupt and bizarre end to the run.
