For your viewing pleasure, here are the covers to all seven issues of DC Comics' 1977-78 bi-monthly Star Hunters comic book. Written by David Micheline, with art by Don Newton, Larry Hama, Mike Netzer, Rich Buckler and Bob Layton, Star Hunters was the company's "answer" to Marvel's authorized Star Wars comic. I read this series pretty avidly back in the day, and remember it being a great deal of interstellar swashbuckling fun.

As a bonus, here's the original art for Issue #6's cover, by the regular team of Buckler & Layton. Enjoy.
