"I’ve been dreaming about this one for a long time, folks — it’s a heart-wrenching exploration of the emotional experience behind Anakin’s notorious line about sand from ATTACK OF THE CLONES, and I can’t wait for you to read it." — Greg Pak

I was talking about Event comics with [poet Chrissy Williams] this week, so the absolute weirdness of their structure is really on my mind. She's got a Modernist Poetry MA, and explaining to her how Events are a fractal and non-linear exploration of a narrative, with no actual set order, and seeing her brain fitz a little made me really aware of what we tend to forget. Yes, crossovers are born of commerce, but they’re an unique narrative form, and I’m fascinated by what one can do with ‘em as a formalist challenge. -- Kieron Gillen

The thing about pastiche is that it's a fun technique, but at the same time, it's only a technique. I really like what we did with Taaia, and I love that she made such a strong impression, but I feel like the only real way to pay tribute to the King is to send this character even further into the unknown than before, as part of an attempt to really get to grips with some kind of higher truths -- at least, as best as we're able to in a cape comic. The King demands nothing less. So we're going to try! -- Al Ewing
