I met Kevin J. Anderson at FAN EXPO DALLAS this weekend, and it was a real delight - he signed all my books for free, as well as the YJK display I brought. He even sent a picture to Rebecca 🙂 Dave Dorman was also a guest, and he graciously also did a little lightsaber doodle too.

Star Wars x MLB Jersey Concepts. Day 1 Echo Base Wampas The goal was to not use any gradients in the logos, letting or patches. Originally I was just going to design the hat icons but it kind of expanded out from there. (No, I didn't use any AI to make any of this.) ⚾

Will I see anybody tomorrow or Sunday? Please say hi, and monitor my gift shop spending.

What’s the point of having vintage merch, if I never WEAR the vintage merch.

Maybe the greatest thing I own now - an original Bantam promo hat, signed by the legend @michaelastackpole.bsky.social. Thank you again!

My third Rebel Scum Con, and my first ever con with a booth. Thanks to all who stopped by, swapped swag, and sold us out! So many friends, so little time. A special thank you to @michaelastackpole.bsky.social and Tait Fletcher for two incredible panels — maybe my favorites I’ve ever moderated.

We’re one week away, and I’m pumped to be attending my third Rebel Scum Con! This year is the first that I’ll have my own booth slinging my books. I’ll also be moderating two awesome panels—the first and last of the con—with @michaelastackpole.bsky.social and Sean Patrick Flanery. Come say hi!

NEW! In June 1977, just as Star Wars mania expanded, Mark, Harrison & Carrie appeared on Chicago’s Lee Phillip Show. It’s an epic appearance as they’re asked questions by a local Star Trek fan group & Lee asks just what is a stormtrooper. Join us as we listen to it all! Links ⬇️

RIP Michael Byrne. A mighty British character actor who played the devilish Nazi Colonel Vogel in ‘Indiana Jones & the Last Crusade’. And who was a favourite of mine as Nairn in Sharpe.

Potentially the best STAR WARS book I’ve read in years (since @chriskempshall.bsky.social’s LAST book). My highest recommendation.

49 years ago, my favorite movie premiered at the @chinesetheatres.bsky.social . Yesterday, I got to watch the premiere of its new installment in that same theatre. Thanks so much to @lucasfilm.bsky.social for the invite, and thanks to @ilmvfx.bsky.social and Skywalker Sound for making actual magic.

Last week, I was invited to Los Angeles by Lucasfilm to go behind-the-scenes of the upcoming THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU. I’ve been very lucky and done a lot of very cool things. This might be the luckiest and the coolest. Thank you, STAR WARS. For everything.

We saw the first 18 minutes of the movie at IMAX HQ, toured the Adelphi Base set, explored the props department, and interviewed the crew (including director Jon Favreau, production designer Andrew L. Jones, and prop master Josh Roth). Full podcast episode coming very soon.

My second book, The STAR WARS ENCYCLOPEDIA OF STARFIGHTERS AND OTHER VEHICLES was published today, from @dkbooks.bsky.social . It’s always a crazy feeling to see my name *anywhere* close to the #StarWars logo … and this time it’s very, very close. Insane. Thank you.
