Star Wars gets spooky for the Halloween season! Author Kiersten White joins us to talk about the first middle-grade Star Wars horror novel, Hiding from the Dark: A Star Wars Horror Novel!

We also explore planetary ecosystems, unusual Star Wars names, and her own Jedi namesake! Hiding From The Dark summary Bia must flee her home on Coruscant and search for her mother while pursued by Imperial forces.

What does Bia possess that the Empire wants so desperately—and can she escape the darkness closing in?

579: Luke Skywalker - PARIAH! Classic Marvel Star Wars Comic #62
Luke Skywalker has gone from hero of the Rebellion to suspected murderer! Hey Hey, Skywalkers! We return to Classic Marvel Star Wars Comics with 1982's issue #62, "Pariah!"—a pivotal chapter in the beloved Shira Brie storyline. Richard revisits this dramatic issue from his childhood and learns he wasn't the only kid who had to look up "pariah." Sarah shares her first-time reactions and artistic observations, and our Skywalkers weigh in on Walt Simonson's striking red, black, and white cover. We also reveal our favorite panels, favorite dialogue, and the issue's most non-Star Wars moment. Skywalking Force member Ben Avechuco joins us as the Hulk in "The Incredible Hulk and the Twins of Evil," a vintage Marvel/Hostess crossover advertisement! DM us if you'd like to voice a character in a future show. Issue #62: "PARIAH!" After trusting the Force and shooting down Shira Brie's TIE fighter, Luke is shunned by his fellow Rebels and begins questioning everything Ben Kenobi and Yoda taught him. Has the Force betrayed him—or was Shira hiding something? With a little help from Lando Calrissian and Chewbacca, Luke takes the Millennium Falcon to Shira's homeworld of Shalyvane. There he discovers that her story may have been a lie, survives a Trial by Ordeal, activates a mysterious transmitter with his own blood, and comes face-to-face with Darth Vader! Release date: May 18th, 1982 Written by: David Michelinie & Walt Simonson Artwork by: Walt Simonson & Tom Palmer Cover Art: Walt Simonson About Classic Marvel Star Wars Comics For those new to our CMSWC sub-series, we are working our way through the original Star Wars comic run published by Marvel from 1977 to 1986. Along the way, we share childhood memories, first-time reactions, artistic observations, and connections to later Star Wars films, series, novels, comics, video games, and even theme parks. Think of it as a Star Wars history lesson, celebrating what we love. We take our Facebook Group Comments on the cover into account as we analyze this issue.

578: Lucas Museum Deep Dive with Tom Spina
Tom Spina takes us behind the scenes of the "Star Wars in Motion" exhibit at the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in Los Angeles! Usually, our conversations with Tom revolve around monsters, creatures, and whether they wear pants. This time, we're exploring how Tom Spina Designs created the hyper-real, life-sized figures that bring some of our favorite Star Wars characters to life inside the museum. After our initial visit, we had plenty of questions. How were those remarkably lifelike faces sculpted? What goes into the approval process? And how do you create a figure to display an iconic movie costume? We explore the work behind characters including farmboy Luke, Princess Leia, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, Darth Maul, Zam Wesell, and Anakin Skywalker at different stages of his life. Plus, there's a new addition to look for on your next visit: young Anakin is now seated in the Naboo starfighter in the library building, making him the museum's third Anakin mannequin! Which character blew you away the most? Let us know in the comments!

576: Star Wars Stories from Rebel Scum Con, Part 3
This episode features three more incredible interviews recorded at Rebel Scum Con III - Star Wars artist Danny Haas, stunt performer Matt Leonard (Zeb Orellios, The Mandalorian and Grogu) and actor Charlie Bushnell (Riley Lawson, Maul: Shadow Lord / Luke, Percy Jackson and the Olympians)! 🎨 Licensed Disney and Lucasfilm artist Danny Haas shares some great insight into how an artist becomes officially licensed by Disney and Lucasfilm. He also takes us inside his creative process. We adore Danny's Star Wars art, so he explains how Ahsoka became one of his signature subjects and why Luke Skywalker remains his favorite character. Growing up near Walt Disney World also played a major role in Danny's artistic journey. 💥 Matt Leonard takes us behind the scenes of physically portraying Zeb Orrelios in The Mandalorian Season 3—even though he didn't initially know he was playing Zeb! He recalls working with Jon Favreau, performing a huge stunt with Lateef Crowder for The Mandalorian & Grogu and stepping inside an AT-AT set. Matt also shares what it was like watching Antony Starr transform into Homelander on The Boys. 🎙️ Charlie Bushnell discusses voicing Riley Lawson in Maul: Shadow Lord, his lifelong love of The Clone Wars and the Ahsoka inspiration behind his performance. He also teases an expanded storyline for Luke Castellan and Annabeth in Season 3 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians (coming to Disney+ on November 20th). Which interview surprised you the most?

575: Luke Skywalker's Deadly Mistake in Classic Marvel Star Wars Comic #61
Classic Marvel Star Wars Comics is back! This week, we're breaking down issue #61, "Screams in the Void," released on April 13, 1982. Lauded as one of the premiere issues of this Marvel Comics series, "Screams in the Void" is a fan favorite. We got dozens of comments when we posted the cover out on social media for your opinions. Richard shares his childhood memories of this pivotal issue, while Sarah experiences its twists and revelations for the first time. Along the way, we compare its artwork and ideas to The Force Awakens, Return of the Jedi, Ralph McQuarrie's concept art, and even Star Trek's The Trouble with Tribbles. This fast-moving issue leaves us with one enormous cliffhanger: did Luke Skywalker actually kill Shira Brie?? About Issue 61: Screams in the Void The Empire has captured a Teezl, a living communicator capable of transmitting information across the galaxy in the blink of an eye. Luke, Shira Brie, and a team of Rebel pilots infiltrate the Imperial armada in modified TIE fighters, but when the Teezl blocks their communications, Luke uses the Force to identify an enemy—and unknowingly shoots down Shira Brie!

574: Inside the Lucas Museum: Star Wars, Detours & Visitor Tips
After 16 years, three cities, and a reported $1 billion, the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art is finally opening in Los Angeles! During Member Previews, we got to experience so many amazing things - including Episode 1 of Star Wars: Detours!! This series was nearly complete when Disney bought Lucasfilm in 2012 and shelved it. After 14 years you can finally watch the first six episodes in one of the museum's two screening rooms. Richard and I share several more highlights, including:✨ Exploring the museum's breathtaking architecture and library ✨ Taking in the Star Wars Cinema gallery ✨ Standing in the presence of a nearly full-size N-1 starfighter ✨ Discovering original comic artwork and artists' sketches ✨ Finding some unexpected statues on the museum's grounds The museum officially opens to the public on September 22, so we offer important tips including ticket, dining, parking, reservation, and digital-guide facts to help plan your own visit. Remember: The Lucas Museum is not a "Star Wars museum." The goal is to celebrate narrative art in all its forms, including paintings, comics, illustrations, murals, photography, cinema artifacts, documentaries, and short films. Taking in all 30 galleries will take several more visits. In fact, we've booked another visit on September 30th. Will we see you there??

573: The Mandalorian and Grogu Cast Interviews - Misty Rosas, Richard Cetrone, and Donald Mills
We're heading back to Rebel Scum Con III for behind-the-scenes stories from The Mandalorian and Grogu with creature and stunt performers Misty Rosas, Richard Cetrone, and Donald Mills! Misty Rosas reveals how she served as the on-set reference performer for Hugo Durant—and surprises us with the news that she also helped bring Gatori to life. She explains how her physical performance helped establish the characters' movements and eyelines before ILM completed the CG animation. Misty also drops an exciting tease about Hugo's food truck possibly coming to Galaxy's Edge! Next, Richard Cetrone takes us inside his performance as Rotta the Hutt. More than Rotta's stunt performer, Richard embodied the breakout character in all of his scenes. Then Donald Mills shares what it was like stepping into the role of legendary bounty hunter Embo and becoming part of Lucasfilm's close-knit family of performers. As a bonus, Kevin Bradford introduces us to Galaxy Tours, which takes Star Wars fans to the real Tunisian filming locations from A New Hope, The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Raiders of the Lost Ark. We're already in the early planning stages of our own Tatooine adventure—and you may be able to join us! All interviews were recorded at Rebel Scum Con III.
