In 1977, Marvel Comics got into the younger reader magazine craze with a magazine called Pizzazz. The magazine only lasted 16 issues, and featured articles and interviews with the stars of the 1970s. But most importantly, the magazine also featured a new serialized Star Wars adventure.

There are two stories that ran throughout the Pizzazz series. The first story was titled "The Keeper's World" and was created by Roy Thomas, Howard Chaykin and Tony DeZuniga. This story was later reprinted by Dark Horse. The second story was created by Archie Goodwin, Walt Simonson, Klaus Janson, Dave Cockrum, and John Tartag.
