Star Wars Manga

The first issue of Tokyopop's Star Wars Manga.

Tokyopop's Star Wars Manga is a set of two Star Wars Manga books which contain several new and unique stories by Japanese artists. These stories are all non-canon.

Publisher's summary[]

This month, Tokyopop will release a Star Wars Manga anthology filled with uniquely bold tales set in a peculiarly Japanese incarnation of that galaxy far, far away... For their daring plots and offbeat directions, these stories are definitely "Infinities"—that is, they don't actually fit into Star Wars continuity. Nonetheless, they are rich in character, detail and action and are definitely worth a look. This anthology, which is a mix of black and white comics with a few color spreads of original illustrations, will only be available initially in Japan.

In addition to these comics stories, there are full color poster-like illustrations included in the book. A striking work by Kia Asimiya [sic] features a contemplative Darth Vader framed by the crossed lightsaber blades of his past and present weapons. Yuji Kaida illustrates Vader before the work-in-progress Death Star, while Tsutomu Takahashi offers a moody portrait of a saber-carrying Dark Lord.
