BBC reporter Kevin Young looses his Star Wars virginity, with much hilarity.
Out this week, and last
Caught up in post-CIV madness, but for now, be aware that the latest Legacy of the Force book, Sacrifice, was officially released yesterday.
Today brings to your comic store Knights of the Old Republic #17, the Jango Fett/Zam Wesell anniversary collection, and the new Panel to Panel, which focuses on Dark Horse’s contributions to the EU. And those of us trucking to Los Angeles may have missed last week’s comic releases, Legacy #12 and Dark Times #3.
CIV: What is thy bidding, my master?
Coming at you from the fifth floor of the Westin Bonaventure in Los Angeles… Jaders. There are currently ten of us, four laptops, and our first internet access in days. It has been, full stop, In. Sane. We’re all crazy busy and there’s so much to do!
Yesterday? We served six thousand pieces of cake. Yes, I have pictures.
Today? It’s a blur. Tomorrow? Who knows? For now? Check out the Celebration blog and Flickr from StarWars.com, because this is the only internet I’m likely to get.
For now, I only have one suggestion for Celebration V: Free wifi in the Fan Club Lounge.
No more movies, just tv
While I’m blogging, Steve Sansweet clarifies the ‘two new movies’ rumor/misquote.
It’s going to be one interesting LOTF panel
Breaking radio silence for a major EU development – TFN has word that the Barnes and Noble booth at Celebration will be selling Sacrifice early. This pretty much guarantees that Saturday’s Legacy of the Force panel is going to be spoilerific, among other things.
No time for blog, Dr. Jones
Might as well make this official: Club Jade dot Net is currently on hiatus for Celebration. There may be posting from the con, there may not be posting from the con, quite frankly we’re not really sure, but in the meantime there’s tons to do and most if it is in the real world.
In any case, we recommend you keep your eyes on StarWars.com once things start rolling.
Today’s Celebration news blast…
Insider’s Guide to Celebration IV: Part III, more schedules, shipping information and the Celebration Store catalog.
Could it be… spoilers?
With just over week to go it’s no surprise that Sacrifice spoilers are leaking. Do you dare read them? Obligatory disclaimer: Unofficial source, could be foilers, believe nothing until you read it yourself, link may be a limited time engagement, blah blah. The book comes out May 29th.
The spoiler-free best stay away from EU forums until you read it. And also stay away from the comments of this post.
Fan Art: Hair portraits
Of course there’s a Star Wars one. Pity it’s too late to get this guy to Celebration! (via Kottke)
Check out the digitals on these guys!
See the Clone Wars cast for the very first time. But who’s that the in the back? No doubt we’ll find out soon enough…
