I read somewhere that Star Wars #1 might be available at the various Disney parks or something like that. I don't know if they will be for sale or just given out. Either way, I agree that this comic has the potential of getting a lot of new/lapsed readers into comics and that is a great thing.

Bringing in a ton of new readers is potentially much more rewarding and profitable for both Marvel and the entire industry than any number of copies sold on a single issue.
