In July, Jerry Ordway pays homage to the good ol’ days of Marvel Star Wars comics with a series of variant covers in the style of Bill Sienkiewicz’s Star Wars: Return of the Jedi cover work.
Teaming up with colorist Nolan Woodward, who limited himself to only colors that were available at the time of the original comic adaptation of Return of the Jedi, [Jerry] Ordway has put a modern twist on Sienkiewicz’s exemplary style, resulting in eye-catching visions of characters new and old!
This vintage-style artwork will grace the covers of all four Star Wars comic series that are currently bridging the gap between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi: Star Wars, Star Wars: Darth Vader, Star Wars: Doctor Aphra, and Star Wars: Bounty Hunters. The covers showcase some of the exciting cast shakeups in the titles as they brace themselves for the upcoming crossover event, DARK DROIDS, including Khel Tenna and Boba Fett joining the crew in Star Wars: Bounty Hunters #36 and Luke Skywalker teaming up with Doctor Aphra in Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #34.
