Celebration VI
News |
Eric from TheForce.net has discovered that
ReedPop Group Vice President Lance Fensterman posted a teaser in his blog
stating:
"So what was my point, oh yes Star Wars Celebration 6, of course. I've not
posted anything in a while yet we've been working really hard on getting news
ready for you. So let's just say that we are close to telling you something
about when and where it will be and you might find the host city a real
surprise."
"Don't hold me to it, but I bet we'll have some real news (not
just a mean spirited tease like this post is) in the next 8 weeks."
Well, now I am curious about the new host city. Perhaps it will be closer to
me this time so I might go for once. More news to come as it
breaks. |

scenes from the six live-action Star Wars movies, as well as one from the
animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars - all made out of 1.5 million LEGO

Crimson Empire
III Coming |
The Official Star Wars Site has
announced that Crimson Empire III is coming! Back in 1997, Dark Horse Comics
launched their landmark Crimson Empire series. The six-part mini-series,
written by Mike Richardson and Randy Stradley and illustrated by Paul Gulacy
peeked underneath the red robes of the enigmatic guards that were rarely far
from Emperor Palpatine's side in Return of the Jedi. Star Wars:
Crimson Empire focused on the survivors of the Emperor's Royal Guard, elite
deadly warriors with no obvious successor to earn their undying loyalty after
the defeat of the Emperor. The series introduced readers to guardsmen Kir Kanos
and Carnor Jax, who became fan favorites.
Envisioned as a trilogy, the series was followed by Crimson Empire II:
Council of Blood in 1998, and then... nothing. Although Crimson Empire
III was first announced for 2001, it never surfaced.
The series will finally see completion as the first of six issues of Star
Wars: Crimson Empire III arrives on October 25, 2011. Working with
collaborator/editor Randy Stradley on story, Mike Richardson writes, with art by
Paul Gulacy, colors by Michael Bartolo, letters by Heisler, and cover art by
Dave Dorman.
Be sure to read the great interview about this new comic series!
