Star Wars – Last Shot Cover Review

Star Wars: Last Shot - A Han and Lando Novel

Quick review of an innovative dust cover design used in Star Wars – Last Shot, A Han and Lando Novel by Daniel José Older. Love the idea that I don’t have to buy two copies of the book (no, I’m not that insane) to get both covers. Pay attention book, magazine, and comic book companies!

Actually, D23 Magazine did this one better this month with a total of four covers bound into their Summer 2018 issue. If you’re good, I’ll do another post on that shortly.

Sorry for the bit of noise in the video, not sure what was going on there.

Squidder…

I backed the Kickstarter for Ben Templesmith’s The Squidder graphic novel in the somewhat reserved position of simply pledging for the hardcover version.  Now they’re letting us upgrade to the slipcover edition if, after having seen much of the work in e-book format, we’re having remorse for not doing so originally.

I felt I was strong enough to resist, but I made the mistake of checking out the video preview of the slipcased edition.

Yeah, this guy knows how to sell me on the upgrade. I think it was when he mentioned the book’s smell.

I’m doomed.
