Ollie 1,059 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Neil S Bulk had posted info about this project on Facebook, but it was April 1st so I thought it was a joke at the time. I'm actually interested in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy 4,142 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I haven't bought a comic book in over a decade, but this has brought me out of retirement.I am very curious to see the tone of it. It certainly looks epic, but I wonder if it will have any of the humor, fun, and light-hearted ness that Lucas intended. I wonder if the modern interpretation of the early script will be more dour than Lucas actually envisioned. Most Expanded Universe stuff makes that fatal flaw of forgetting that SW was fast, fun, and rollicking in its tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,020 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Wow! A comic book written from a rough draft by George Lucas.Probably one of those that were turned down by studios, and that alienated his colleagues. All of them labelled it as "unreadable and incomprehensible".Must be amazing...It's interesting as a curiosity, but I doubt there is any merit to it.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A. A. Ron 1,742 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 "Must be amazing?"Fascinating maybe, but if you meant "mind-blowingly cool," I think not. Lucas first few films were great in large part because of all the people who were willing to tell George which of his ideas were stupid. If his colleagues said that his early drafts were incomprehensible, they probably were. I definitely want to check these out either way though.

indy4 155 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 This is pretty cool. And I ike how they used Mars in the trailer, since GL's original idea was to use pre-existing classical music instead of a new original score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilbo 3,709 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 I've read the first issue of this by the way. The art is fantastic and it seems to be a good adaptation. If you haven't read the script it's something completely different but so many elements of the final films show up in one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
