with a partial cover at ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY!
You can´t ask for more - STAR WARS back again at EW! They already had so many great STAR WARS covers in the past -
I´m sure this is just the beginning for 2015! My bet for the STAR WARS year: 5 covers fetauring our beloved saga! Wanna bet ?

The First Episode 7 Cover
comes from STARBURST magazine - and it´s a winner! As you hopefully know STARBURST magazine has been re-animated and is now back in full swing. Tricky to get outside the British/UK key market - always a good choice for news, gossip and behind the scenes stories!

The Digital Realm
People who know me, are well aware of my digital lifestyle and my interest in all things IT. Funny though, when it comes to magazines I´m all ANALOG! I do get all my news via the web - who doesn´t - but when is comes to collecting magazines I´m ALL OLD SCHOOL!
But - let´s face it - it won´t take long and the magazines as we love them, will have gone extinct :-(
Year after year we loose another magazine and the whole market is becoming smaller and smaller, which is a pretty sad development. I see the chances - of course - as well (cutting printing costs, distribution etc. etc. ) BUT still - I don´t like it...
Enough complaining - there is good within the digital publishing world as well and one of those things is ISSUU. I have just learned, that there is a digital only STAR WARS magazine called THE EMPIRE!
In their own words:
The EMPIRE monthly is the official web-magazine of the 501st Legion Russian Outpost. The 501st Legion is a worldwide Star Wars costuming organization comprised of and operated by Star Wars fans. While it is not sponsored by Lucasfilm Ltd., it is Lucasfilm's preferred Imperial costuming group.
It´s a fan magazine covering the activities of the 501s and it looks promising - you can check it out here:
And now that I have lured you to ISSUU, you should try to run the term STAR WARS through their digital library, or you just click here - there you go - lots of new and old mags and books (though I do have my concerns about the copyright situation for some publications. Anyway - enjoy!

New Issue of Galaxis magazine - J.J. Abrams Cover
It´s been a while but here it is: Galaxis magazine no. 4 - SciFis best kept secret (it´s a shame that this jewel really gets so little media attention :-( ) John Zipperer has done it again - so this issue is a lot less STAR WARS oriented BUT it features JJ Abrams (directing STAR TREK) and a ton of more great articles.
You can read the digital copy right here via ISSUU - worth checking out.
Again, thank you John Zipperer for sharing your passion with us!

COMIX cover, with - well a comics story ....
Comix is a monthly comic promotion magazine, with lots of news about the creative force of bringing comics to the market. This month they have a nice MARVEL themed SW cover. The article is about the new (old) home of the STAR WARS franchise back to MARVEL. Nothing too deep, sadly the love and effort DARK HORSE has put into the STAR WARS SAGA is not praised enough (probably because of lack of knowlege/passion) - anyway I´m not complaining....Due to it´s limited run this will be a tough mag to get.

The 1st STAR WARS cover of 2014
..and it is from Germany (again!) And even better, about
STAR WARS featuring the new Disney created REBELS TV series! It took a few weeks into the year, but now it´s official - the first cover is out!
It´s not really a MUST HAVE, because the cover basically only features the TV series logo, but then again ;-)
Inside you find a lot of coverage about the German Toy fair and one article especially about new STAR WARS toys (2 pages)
