Blue Milk SpecialAn excellent, funny, top-quality production. This web-comic is a scene-by-scene take on the original Star Wars film; beyond; behind and in-between! Unlike mine, this is intentionally funny! A labour of love. Planet Nowhere.comTop class artwork by Otis Frampton. Otis works with his Wacom stylus to create not only wonderfully designed and rendered drawings in his panels but his photoshop colouring, toning and texturising is marvellous to behold. Because of the quality you get about one new page per week. It all starts of course with pencils and paper. See his method here > LegoStar Galactica
Laugh-out-loud hilarious Sci-Fi webcomic starring lego characters - with frequent SW references. This is actually updated daily! |
Star Wars: The comic that saved Marvel
Absolutely fascinating insider's view from its original Editor Roy Thomas. This'll explain why the first few issues looked so unlike the film (and therefore, how Vader came to be drinking coffee)! Marvel Star WarsJoshua Lapin-Bertone's enjoyable and ambitious issue by issue critique of the comics from Issue#1 in 1977; in Blog form, via podcast and a Facebook Page. Topless RobotThe 11 Least Necessary Star Wars Comic Book Stories

Into the Tomb of Draculaat 'Zap! Wham! Analysis! Read up on Marvel Comics'. Adrian Wymann writes intelligently, informatively and entertainingly about comics. My favourite being the 1970's Tomb of Dracula drawn by Gene Colan and Tom Palmer in the '70s. The Daily Cross-hatchMany Fascinating articles. |

Tiny Art DirectorNot kids' drawings but a hilarious collection of drawings commissioned and usually rejected by the illustrator's daughter. Highly recommended! Monster EngineIllustrations by an excellent artist - from real kids' drawings. Wonderful! A must-see. Growing Up Star WarsOne of the most charming places you could visit online. Former Star Wars comic illustrator Glen Mullaly says: "With the creation of this group you now have permission to post (...) yourself as Princess Leia in 1977 (...) or that crayon portrait you did of the Death Star Droid that hung on your parent's fridge for months in 1979... Even that great shot of your little brother meeting an off-model Darth Vader at some local in-store promotion in 1983." |
It's only right that there should be some SW sites listed here: Galactic Binder.comPete tells me that they have the largest SW directory on the web! Obviously hyperbole won't be enough... a plethora of resources and fun content. |
Evan Reynolds'......clipped-out Star Wars newspaper strips from the 70's by Russ Manning. (Evan's also an ingenious fellow - quite the engineer.) Also see here for SW anecdotes: www.evan.org/sw.html |
