Comic books??1?1
Hey I really love your posts, I am a Luke skywalker fan myself. I was wondering where too start with starwars comic books? Which ones are your favorite, which ones you recommend? And where too read said comics, keep up the amazing posts ^_^
Thank you! If you're a luke fan, the screaming citadel arc is a must - you can google the reading order but it's Star Wars: The Screaming Citadel - Star Wars (2015) #31 - Doctor Aphra #7 - Star Wars #32 - Doctor Aphra #8. Shattered empire is also a great comic, and the showdown on smuggler's moon arc (star wars 2015 #8- 12) has some awesome art! Or you can just read the star wars (2015) and star wars (2020) from the start - it's worth a read! And if you want legends stuff, I found dark empire to be charming.
As for where to read them... you can go to an official site such as marvel unlimited or get an offline book but you should totally not use a pirating site such as this one, nope, I'm just telling you this so you can avoid em

3, 8, and 25 for the locg ask game!
Tumblr media
He's just so slay what can I say. Anyways Emerald Twilight is my all time fave for him, and also GL/GA is amazing and I love it (though it is dated). But no I do love him. He's SUCH a bitch sometimes though and I find it so fun most of the time (and others kind of frustrating. Harold, please why must we do this rn).
The moment that really got me interested in him as a character (and not just background to other GLs) was definitely Green Lantern (1990) #1, when he swan dives off a cliff in front of some campers, only using the ring to save himself and fly away at the very last second. It immediately made me realize something was incredibly wrong with him and it has captivated me ever since
Tumblr media
Of my top 10, he's definitely the one I feel I know the least about, as I've always seen him more on team books (which is generally his forte but still). Something I really love about J'onn though is that he'd SUCH a great friend. Like in the Suicide Squad/JLI crossover when he sees Mari McCabe hanging out with C list villains and being suspicious breaking into the prison (bc the Squad was NOT known abt at this time) his first instinct isn't to be confrontational or fight like everyone else is doing, but instead to reach out and ask if she was okay and how he could help her.
Or like in nu52 JLA during the mind prison arc when he's helping and kind of mentoring Stargirl during their "escape" of the mind prison like <3333 he's just so good. Or in New Frontier when he befriends the government boss who spent the whole comic trying to hunt him down and experiment on him after he saves the govt guy's life at the expense of his own goals?
I just love how he's a hero character that isn't just like nebulously good and cares about all people, but specifically cares about the people in his life and shows that care in his relationships with them <3. Anyways I should read more Martian Manhunter. Especially bc Ostrander is one of my top writers on locg and I've been meaning to read more of his stuff
Tumblr media
APHRA LETS GOO!!!! Another Star Wars character but she's the queen of my heart for real. Did a campaign to try and get her in my top 20 a few months back but her ongoing ended and I've read more since then so now she's no. 25.
Fave runs for her are ofc Darth Vader (2015) [which I need to finish] and also Doctor Aphra (2020) by Alyssa Wong. There's also her 2016 run (which I think was written by Sí Spurrier?) but I haven't read that one yet so idk.
As a concept Aphra is just SO inspired and I rlly do hope we get EVEN more comics with her and that she makes the jump to other media bc I NEED star wars fans to get me when I rant about my favorite morally bankrupt asian lesbian archeologist fuckboy. She's also polyam but that's not compatible w the fuckboy bit bc that's her committed relationship later on (character development!)
I also love that she essentially bullied Luke Skywalker into being reluctant friends with her despite kidnapping him multiple times and also working for Darth Vader

Other artists with unusual style. Part 2
Kei Zama:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kei Zama (座間 慧 Zama Kei) is a Japanese comic artist and metalhead. After discovering Last Stand of the Wreckers, they fell hard for Transformers and started hunting down every Western comic they could, with Geoff Senior and Derek Yaniger being faves and influences for their "powerful and aggressive" styles.
Starting as a regular cover artist for IDW Publishing, they became the regular artist on Optimus Prime in late 2016.
As well as Transformers, they've drawn for their fan-fave 2000 AD: starting with those other war robots, ABC Warriors, for a 2017 Free Comic Book Day special. They were unsure about doing it at the same time as starting their ongoing Optimus Prime gig but John Barber, their co-creator, talked them into it.
Kei Zama is a Japanese comic book artist who has worked on several Star Wars projects for Marvel Comics as an illustrator and cover artist, including War of the Bounty Hunters – 4-LOM & Zuckuss 1, Life Day 1, and Doctor Aphra (2020) 21. They enjoy the prequel trilogy films and appreciated the experience of drawing characters from the 1999 prequel trilogy film Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace for the Pride Month variant cover of Darth Vader (2020) 24.
My opinions for this artist, they have made lot of details when they are making transformers comics as which they've drawn for their fan-fave 2000 AD which is starting with those other war robots aka Cybertrons and Decepticons.

Ben Templesmith:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ben Templesmith is an Australian comic book artist best known for his work in the American comic book industry, most notably the Image Comics series Fell, with writer Warren Ellis, and IDW's 30 Days of Night with writer Steve Niles, which was adapted into a motion picture of the same name.
Templesmith produced his first commercial American comics work in 2001, providing the art for Todd McFarlane Productions' Hellspawn, which was published by Image Comics. He has gone on to create his own original works as well as contribute to many licensed properties at various publishers, most notably IDW Publishing, with which he had an exclusive agreement through most of 2008 and part of 2009 before returning to being a freelancer.
Original works Templesmith has produced include the miniseries Welcome to Hoxford, the New York Times best-selling Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse Tommyrot: The Art of Ben Templesmith, Conluvio and Choker at Image Comics with writer Ben McCool. He also provided a number of covers for the Oni Press series Wasteland.
In April 2012, DC Entertainment announced that Templesmith would be one of the artists illustrating a new digital Batman series with stories set outside regular DC continuity.
My opinions for this artist, that his art works have like different emotions but he want it to be in the dark theme scene on the comic as it very unusual for it in the comic itself as it is like explaining the emotions with colours but in dark theme style.
╰── ⋅ ⋅ ── ✩ ── ⋅ ⋅──╯
Joëlle Jones:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Joëlle Jones is an American comic book artist and writer, best known for her work on Lady Killer, a series published in 2015–2017 by Dark Horse Comics, for her cover work on various Marvel Comics series, and for her work writing and illustrating DC Comics series including Batman and Catwoman.
Joëlle Jones is an Eisner nominated artist currently living and working in Los Angeles, CA. Since attending PNCA in Portland, OR, she has contributed to a wide range of projects and has most recently has worked on Batman for DC comics. She also wrote and drew the series, Lady Killer, published by Dark Horse comics. Jones has also provided the art for fashion designer Prada, and various projects for Marvel, Boom, Vertigo, Oni Press and The New York Times.  Joëlle currently has projects with DC comics as well as continuing her Series Lady Killer.
My opinions for this artist, that her art works has very complexing colours on her work as she works on the details little by little as she had made positive spaces and aswell negative spaces to show what specific parts that our attention should be.

Star Wars (2020) #34 A FRACTURED ALLIANCE In a desperate battle with the Killdroids, Luke and the rebel heroes managed to get the Path engine back to the ''Longbeam'', but Luke's hand and lightsaber were crushed by one of the monstrous droids in the process. With a little help from Lobot and the Kezarat Colony, the rebels were able to use the Path engine to get out of No-Space and offered to bring members of the colony along with them. Having made their way out of No-Space, Luke now faces the reality that he's going to need to face Darth Vader again in the future, and he's going to need a new lightsaber…. Writer: Charles Soule Artist: Madibek Musabekov Letterer: Clayton Cowles Colorist: Rachelle Rosenberg Cover artist: Stephen Segovia Editor: Mark Paniccia Publication date: May 3, 2023 In much the same way that Doctor Aphra and Bounty Hunters have rolled out of their long-running storylines in the wake of Hidden Empire, so Star Wars shifts gear as we leave behind No-Space and follow Luke Skywalker as he searches for a solution to his broken lightsaber problem. Of course, with the events of Return of the Jedi on the near horizon we know he'll soon be getting his iconic green blade, but how we're yet to learn. We open with Luke and Artoo, Skywalker keen to figure out his problem and knowing he can no longer use Ilum as the source for his kyber crystal search. He's reading the ancient Jedi texts, presumably the ones we see decades later on Ahch-To in The Last Jedi, and understands that while there was no need for Yoda and Obi-Wan to teach him the ancient rites of passage for a Jedi to build their blade, he needs to figure it out. He's frustrated, and it becomes increasingly clear that this mission to find a solution is something he needs to do, despite Leia reminding him that his connection to the Force is somewhat flaky and his piloting talents are required for the upcoming assault. We then arrrive on a very familiar location; Christophsis, the world we first saw in The Clone Wars movie from 2008. While there's a limited Imperial presense on Christophsis, Luke is keen to avoid the city and parks his T-65 far away, walking with Artoo in the rain as he explains to way of the world on the planet, how kyber is occasionally found by prospectors and traded. He decides to tell Artoo to stay put and hold his lightsaber as he heads into town and finding a cantina he asks the bartender about looking for rare commodities, and as the barkeep utters the word 'kyber' he is blasted, and Luke turns to see all the denizens of the bar taken out in a hail of fire, and a green-haired woman standing in the doorway with a smoking gun. Luke is incenced, and as she drops her blaster and Artoo arrives, Luke takes his lightsaber and demands to know who she is and why she did it. [gallery link="file" size="large" columns="4" ids="144011,144010,144009,144012"] Her name is Gretta, and she explains that anyone who comes looking for kyber is taken hostage and handed over to the Empire. She also explains the reason why she did it. When her people on Jedha were murdered by the Empire, she swore revenge, so when Luke blew up the Death Star in her mind they were avenged. She wants to help, and despite still being angry at her actions he allows her to help and they take her speeder and head out to find a man called Cuata. He's a kyber expert, one who saw the writing on the wall as those who refused to assist the Empire were killed, and leaving that behind he hid out on Christophsis. Gretta helps Cuata survive with supplies and food, and roaring across the plains their speeder is suddenly hit by a huge creature erupting from the ground that promptly eats the speeder as Luke reaches for his lightsaber, which fails. They run, panicking at their imminent demise and Luke reaches out into the Force but nothing. As he waits for the inevitable the creature explodes and walking through the smoke in the final page we see Cuata, who asks Luke for his lightsaber....
A thoughtful, action-packed issue, the story doesn't hang about from Luke making his decision to swing over to Christophsis to meeting Gretta and finding Cuata. There's a kinetic flow to the way Soule tells his stories and this issue highlights that, blending introspection with action and delivering another wrinkle to the run in to Jedi. A great read.
