Kirby Art&Style was alright I guess, but I probably wouldn't recommend it. Too much wasted page space on easily discovered promotional art from games, while the interesting/uncommon concept art and side material stuff was relegated to cramped, multiple per page pictures. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Kind of random, but I've been reading the X-Wing series and now I'm inspired to play the EA Rogue Squadron game. Wondering if any pilots from the books are in the game, and if so, if the game takes place after as I dont want to spoil anything for myself. It would suck if I was playing and they said something like "Corran died during the battle of Endor" and he's still alive in the book I'm on, etc. --- "They speak of progress, in red, white and blue.

Then I read it as a grown-up and I still enjoyed it a lot. Disney did a really bad adaptation in the '80s of the first two books. Think fantasy adventure fairy-tail ish.

Happy Easter! Still reading the X-Wing books, been in a small drought. Tried the first run of Gwenpool and wound up reading about 15 of them, pretty funny with some good character appearances.

More publishers should do oblong/short side printing though, gutter loss can be absolutely brutal to nice 2 page spreads. Read more of Sobotei today, about 800 pages left perhaps.
