Two big releases this week! Coming up first, on Tuesday, is J.W. Rinzler’s eagerly anticipated The Making of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, the follow-up to 2007’s The Making of Star Wars. I was lucky enough to find a copy early this weekend, and while I haven’t had a chance to do a proper read, I can say one thing: It is huge.
I suspect we’ll see a good deal of press on this, but so the biggies are Vanity Fair’s interviews with Rinzler and Jeremy Bulloch (Irvin Kershner coming soon.) Meanwhile, io9 has some tidbits out of NYCC.
The other new release that’s been getting a lot of buzz in fandom is Knight Errant #1 by KOTOR’s John Jackson Miller. Look for it in your comic store on Wednesday.
I actually attempted to read “The Making of ANH” and had to stop. It’s overwhelming!
However, spending three hours just looking at the pictures is a blast.
I’m looking forward to grabbing this one.
By any chance does anybody know if will this be released as a paperback?
Wondering for consistency sake, since the one I have for ANH is.
Or is it just too huge that the only binding that can contain it is one used for hardcovers.
Any help would be appreciated :)
I believe this one is only coming out in hardcover at the moment.
Enjoying my copy today. :)
