Soooooo, some news! With the wrap up of the brilliant Darth Vader run by Charles Soule, I will be writing a five-issue miniseries for Marvel Star Wars called:<\/p>\n

SHADOW OF VADER<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

*thunder rumbles*<\/p>\n

It was announced at NYCC this past weekend!<\/p>\n

Each issue takes the POV of someone affected by Vader — i.e. someone cast into his literal and figurative shadow. The first issue is a riff on\u00a0Friday the 13th<\/strong>, with Vader as our slasher killer. The second is basically Willrow Hood: A Star Wars Story. Third issue is about a morgue attendant on the Death Star who becomes somewhat… obsessed by a series of unusual deaths, deaths that ahem, might have been caused by a mysterious choking sensation. Fourth issue shows the return of\u00a0Aftermath<\/strong>‘s Acolytes of the Beyond. And finally, the fifth issue shows a conflict between Leia and a new Resistance pilot who has learned of Leia’s grim, Vader-flavored bloodline.<\/p>\n

You can check out the first two covers, both by Greg Smallwood:<\/p>\n

I mean, right? So cool.<\/p>\n

Art on the first issue will be by Juanan Ramirez.<\/p>\n

You can read more about it at StarWars.com<\/a>, plus read about tons of other cool SW-related publishing announcements. (Including Alphabet Squadron!)<\/p>\n

The day that was announced was\u00a0also<\/em> the day that\u00a0You Might Be The Killer<\/strong> premiered on SyFy, and though I did not get a chance to watch it live, I did DVR it and watched it last night. I also followed along as it aired, checking out the hashtag and it was great fun to watch people… well,\u00a0having<\/em> great fun, especially on a day so deeply shitty and divisive as Saturday was. (Goddamn, this country cannot get its head out of its ass, can it?)<\/p>\n

I think that’s it for news from me, so here you go, have a butterfly, just don’t eat it.<\/p>\n
