I kind of screwed this up, getting busy with my work schedule and all, but there’s a graphic novel I want to turn a lot of you on to whip up some of that frenzy for Star Wars that I know more people than just me have.

Written by Mike Kennedy and Drawn by Carlos Meglia, Star Wars: Underworld – The Yavin Vassilika is a fun, even madcap, adventure set between the events of Episode’s III and IV.  It focuses on all of your favorite characters, the Hutts, Han, Lando, Chewie and all of the Bounty Hunters, especially Boba Fett.

It’s a hell of an adventure and a swift, interesting read and the art is really, really good looking.  I don’t know how familiar you guys are with Carlos Meglia, but  you should really check out his stuff, especially if you like Humberto Ramos.  His take on the Star Wars universe is uber-stylized and really fun to look at.

So, be sure to check out this trade while you’re waiting in line for Clone Wars.
