Gosh, Which One Do You Think Will Sell The Best?

The April 1st issue of Entertainment Weekly will feature six different covers celebrating the entire Star Wars saga.

I think it's safe to assume which one will be the favorite of the aging male Star Wars fanbase still living with their moms.

What I found particularly interesting is that an image of Han Solo was chosen for one of the covers. When you talk about lasting characters or images from the movies, EW hits it right with slave-girl Leia, Yoda, Darth Maul, and Darth Vader. But where's C-3P0 and R2-D2? If I was the editor of EW I'd have switched out the Han Solo cover for one picturing eveyrone's favorite robot duo.
