This Artist Is Drawing A Star Wars Comic A Day Throughout 2015
This article is more than 2 years old
With The Force Awakens due in theaters at the end of this year, it’s safe to say Star Wars is on a lot of people’s minds right now. For most of us, that just means tracking the steady barrage of rumors and speculation, or maybe rabidly consuming the first wave of the new canon, such as Rebels or the Tarkin novel. Artist George Folz, however, has decided to focus that Star Wars energy in a creative way: he’s going to draw one Star Wars comic per day throughout 2015.

Folz has dubbed the project #darthdays, and each one-panel comic adapts a scene from Star Wars, beginning with the above sequence of stormtroopers combing the desert. (“We ain’t found shit!”) With today’s Boba Fett entry, he’s already branched out into Return of the Jedi, so I’m sure moments from The Empire Strikes Back are on the horizon as well. Check out more of Folz’s #darthdays below, and our guide to this week’s new science fiction comics after that!
