Deservedly salty.
Everyone seems to be focusing on Star Wars 14 and 20 for BK covers. But, there doesnât seem to be as much talk about 13B. I think thatâs the first BK cover in the volume, right? Itâs a strong cover, and with it being B, the print run was probably quite a bit lower.
Thoughts?
While it sucks to not be credited on stuff and artists deserve that, Larroca is almost as bad at tracing as Land
Yeah, Larocca shouldnât really be drawing attention to people not crediting their sources.
Itâs the first Non-exclusive cover of Black Krrsantan.
This is the closest I have thatâs ready-made.
It doesnât include the Clay Mann cover.
First or not Vader Down he looks like something out of planet of the apes.
Calling Doctor ZaiusâŠ
Chocolate molds?
Custom BS BK.
Its as good as any of the sequels. Those were all varying degrees of bad.
OK. Iâll add my 2 cents for what its worth. I collect vintage Star Wars big time. Iâve got two complete POTF coin sets, two Vlix graded both at 80, DT Lukes, DT Vaders, etc. You get my point. I also have bought just about every modern figure since the mid 90âs till now, both 3.75 and 6". I love Star Wars. But when it comes to comics, I donât have a ton. Iâve got some key issues like the first appearance of Valence in the old Marvel series. Iâve got the ESB Super Special #16. I have some of the âBoba keysâ. But when I see people paying big bucks for Heir to the Empire #1, I just canât get into that. Thrawnâs first appearance is in Timothy Zahnâs BOOKS. Many characters had their first appearances in MOVIES or CARTOONS. To go crazy over some of these issues is great for others but I just canât get pumped about characters that clearly showed up on the big screen or in a novel first. As for characters like Dr. Aphra, Black Krrsantan, etc⊠yeah their first appearances are in the COMICS. Iâve got those since I have bee buying all Marvelâs Star Wars books since 2015. Just my point of view.
Iâm going with the hard cover for $5!
Soooo, who do we see next? Doctor Aphra, Tripple Zero/Bee-tee, Bosk, Dengar, 4-LOM, Valance, Ailyn Vel, Han Solo, Ewoks? Any of these? Someone else? What are the CHU odds we get more introductions or cameo appearances?
Yeah. Back when I was buying Heir to the Empire 1 copies and the like out of dollar bins, I always knew this was Thrawnâs first COMIC appearance and never really considered it a key. In fact, I hate to say it, but that comic kind of sucks. If you read the book, the content in the comic is just lacking and abridged.
It blows my mind itâs a $100+ book now and I was still buying it for $2 a pop in 2019.
There are so many things that are just nuts in this hobby these days that Iâve lost count.
The trick is to learn what the next ânutsâ thing is and capitalize on it.
Anything else is just a losing battle and your voice is tossed into the wind with an oncoming freight train.
And after all this Star Wars hype we still donât have a Mandalorian comicâŠâŠ
Seriously, Marvel could sell 3 Million copies of that!
