I Find Your Lack of Waiters Disturbing (3)08/09/2010  I'd discovered a peculiar and amusing panel in Howard Chaykin's Marvel adaptation of Star Wars. Have a look at it on the left. I mean, honestly: how on earth could he possibly drink coffee? And is the best use of his unusual talents? |
But I was going into Toshi (2)06/09/2010  Exploding droids on piano wires and other disasters. Maybe George should have blown a gasket too.? |
Lars Homestead Geek Test (1)03/09/2010  Testing the Geeks: Luke goes over - 1 shrub, luke looks down at Beru - 3 shrubs, Luke walks back to Jawas - only 1! Mischievous buggers aren't they? You'd think: "If they had CGI back then they could have put some in the shots" |
Irish Gun Nuts (10)25/08/2010  I don't recall that bit A '77 curio! So pleased to re-discover this page. It seems as if it was done by someone who wasn't really that familiar with the film! Also, a bit about Northern Ireland and George's recycled WWI militaria! (And no. I am not a 'gun nut' - anymore.) |

The artist takes a break from hectic comic
production for a photo. By his mum (Summer '78)
Around Christmas time 1977 a nine year old budding artist (that's me) started to draw his own comic adaptation of his favourite film; just seen in the cinema, with no DVDs, books or comics to guide him (that's me again, hello!). The early results were peculiar, but it was fun and some consolation for only seeing it once. Less obsessed friends would claim "We saw it 6 times!": I yearned to see it again.
Some time later, I got my hands on the British printing of the MARVEL comic and treasured it. My drawing improved and with the comics, bubble-gum cards and the full-colour photos in the novel I began the process of drawing, re-evaluating and redrawing - casting the older pages in the bin.
So now reader, here's the very odd fruit of that 4 or 5 year effort. Rediscovered only last year. The shabby 1977 home-made comic becomes 2010 web-comic.
