A sweetly smiling Leonard Nimoy, clearly not being Spock although by necessity sharing his haircut, from the pages of March 4th 1967’s TV Guide.

THE REIGN OF KYLO REN (vol 1) is out in trade paperback today!!! I hope, if you haven’t been reading the floppies, you’ll check this out. I think Luke Ross, Stefano Raffaele, Nolan Woodard, Joe Caramagna and I have been telling some great stories here.

The cover of LEGACY OF VADER: THE REIGN OF KYLO REN VOL 1: a very cool image of Kylo, masked with his effed-up saber blazing, with Vader’s mask looming in the background and fire and rage just ALL OVER IT.

News reaches Rivendell of events in the Shire a fortnight ago: of Nazgûl on the heels of the hobbit Frodo, who carries a burden east without the help of Gandalf. Elrond sends Elves riding in several directions. He sends the Elven-lord Glorfindel riding west along the Road itself.

Being part of Star Wars: Visions Volume 1 was such an honor and a joy. But it was during the height of the pandemic, so everything was done remotely — I never had the chance to meet the team or anyone from Lucasfilm face to face.
It’s still something I really regret not being able to experience.

I’ve noticed that having to verbalize every thought that crosses your mind while watching something means you miss a lot of the storytelling, especially the more subtle stuff.
