Owner's Description
Star Wars 55: Plif!
Writer: David Michelinie, Penciller: Walt Simonson, Inker: Tom Palmer, Cover artist: Walt Simonson.
Signed by David Michelinie & Walt & Louise Simonson on 8/25/13 at Fan Expo Canada held in Toronto, Ontario.
This issue introduced a new telepathic species known as hoojibs. Hoojibs appeared rodent sized and consumed electrical type energy as food. Their leader was known as Plif. Plif became a good friend of Princess Leia and had numerous appearances later in the series.
This issue was later adapted into a Read-Along Book (with a tape or record) by Buena Vista Records in 1983. The story was re-titled "Planet of the Hoojibs".
