Head to the comic store on Wednesday to pick up The Star Wars #1, the comic adaption of George Lucas’ first draft screenplay.
Also in stores this week is the latest Star Wars Insider, #144, featuring a Hondo Ohnaka short story.
Our next novel release comes September 24, Martha Wells’ Empire and Rebellion: Razor’s Edge.
I’ve pre-ordered every variant of issue #1 at my local CBS.
Very excited about this release.
Mostly enjoyed the first issue of The Star Wars today. The art is lovely, the design work is fantastic, and everything has a great foreign-yet-familiar feel to it that makes for fairly surreal reading.
If I have a complaint so far, it’s that there’s not a whole lot of dialogue or narration in this issue. That puts a lot of weight on the art to convey action and story and location, but the page layouts aren’t very dynamic or engaging. It makes the whole thing feel a little flat in some places.
