spent spooky season rewatching Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (2018) and experiencing Interview with the Vampire (2022) for the first time. I love it when shows unapologetically lean into their aesthetic.

intrigued to see where this is going and what genres they'll be bringing in. personally I'd love to see more crime noir too!

Star Wars is starting a “genre fiction initiative”. First up is a YA romance called Eyes Like Stars by Ashley Poston

I walk past the polestar store in town on my way to work every day ... always makes me a little sad, but Stellan is with me! 🥹

What the heck, that's an incredibly cool design! Love that SW books are getting the full special edition treatment now.

You certainly know how to tease us!

Real! Such a shame how it went down in the end. I hope the vision gets to be completed some day, however that may be.

So true! I used to want to match people's energies, but it's much more peaceful to just stay in your zone. Doesn't mean we shouldn't feel the anger, but we don't have to replicate it.

any day a new Tessa Gratton book releases is a good day! I generally struggle to read prequels of deceased characters (just hurts me as a hypersensitive person too much and unfortunately bittersweetness also manifests physically for me) but what is The High Republic if not pushing my boundaries 🙂‍↕️

just gonna put this out here in futile attempts of delusion, but if anyone deserves another novel post-The High Republic's main story, let it be Avar and Elzar. It could have interludes of the Firebrands flashbacks we've been asking for since this initiative kicked off. pretty please 🥺

Congrats! Every team can be lucky to have you. Hope you got to celebrate this milestone!

Oh Daniel, thank you and the creative team behind this story for making us feel seen and reminding us we can choose friendship and love even in the most dire times. These comics mean so much. It's been a rollercoaster trying to let go of THR as a whole, thanks for everything 🫂

I was stunned to see the bottom's sprayed as well today! it's so gorgeous.

here we go. it's so hard to let go of something you've treasured for half a decade. to know this might be the end or perhaps a new beginning for characters you've grown alongside, that you've loved and lost, that have shaped your view of the gffa and the real world itself. for light and life 🌟

Happy release day to Trials of the Jedi!!!

I loved doing fan art throughout the Phase 1 and 2 releases and although I spent most of Phase 3 doing official art, I couldn’t let it come to an end without doing one last illustration.

Avar Kriss and Elzar Mann pose heroically, lightsabers ready and dressed in their luminous armor as marchion ro looms in the background.

been feeling a weird mix of anxiety, nostalgia, hope and dread over The High Republic's final book release tomorrow. This story, these characters have given so many of us shelter, shaped us, held us. What a terrible and beautiful feeling to experience the power a story can hold over your heart 🌟

does this suffice to call my last straw of hope to get stellan back a success? I think I won here
