Loot? Oh, goodie, I love loot. It wouldn't be graced with an image of anyone I know would it?

For those of you who have always wondered how a comic comes into being and for those of you who thought they just popped magically into existence... wink

I was just over at the Dark Horse site noticed that they have a new feature. It's call 'making of a comic' and it give the script, pencils, inks, color and lettering for 6 pages of Legacy issue 34. If the link doesn't work for you, you can find it at the DH site under the yellow sidebar that says "features'--making of a comic.

SPOILER WARNING for this feature. If you do not want to see the comic before you actually get it in your hands, don't go to this link. (Or go there after you've read the issue.)

Here's the link:

Just some scruffy looking guy with a bad attitude. wink

And, I gotta tell you, it's real hard to be grouchy about said guy behaving badly when he's walking around wearing a sheet. hypnotized #34 looks good! Made me grind my teeth a little blush , but it's awfully easy on the eyes. grin

Thanks for sharing that featurette, Jan! Not only was it fascinating to see the process from script to final product, but it also filled me in on how you denote that little electric bubble for a transmission in scripting. Gracias! grin

Sure thing! It was pretty interesting to see the process all laid out step by step--even for me--and I've been drawing comics for a long time!

Hi Jan! Sorry if this question doesn't belong here; I know that you've answered a few questions about character ages before and I don't want to bombard you... but I'm really curious about Antares Draco. He seemed like he was a fully-trained Imperial Knight in Legacy 8: Allies, and so I figure he might be 18 - 20 in 130 ABY and 25 - 27 in 137 ABY... only so that his love for Marasiah isn't cradle-robbing. tongue But I also wonder if 25 - 27 is old enough to be leader of the IK's...

Did you and John have an age in mind for him when you created him?

Hi Jeff--

We figured that Draco was about 17-18 at the time of the Massacre on Ossus and deposing of Krayt. So that makes him 24-25 within the story now. A good question is why he is leader of the IK at such a young age--and it's a question we have not addressed within the story yet, but we have some ideas.

Jan, I just read #35. It was pretty darn cool.

I really like how Azlyn's armor still shows her eyes. With Vader, you couldn't see them. I think that by seeing her eyes, she still retains a fair bit of her humanity.

Also, if she wants to die so badly, why doesn't she just take the suit off?

Azlyn was willing to die--to become one with the Force when she knew she was dying, but taking off the suit now that she is in it and it is preserving her life would be committing suicide and she isn't going to go there. Still a good Jedi, she has to take what is given.

But that makes sense. Lovely artwork as normal happy

She is an Imperial Knight now, but she was trained by the Jedi first. A lot of their values--which are not that dissimilar from the IK's-- still hold for her. happy

Jan, you might have answered this question before, but i'm an aspiring artist.

How did you get into comics? did you go to art school (i'm self-trained, for the most part)?
