I should say that this is the middle grade illustrated Jedi Academy, not the prose series (by Kevin J. Anderson). Personally, I think the EU, the reboot, what's cannon isn't as important to me as great stories, and I think there's plenty of room for all kinds of versions in the Star Wars universe. I hope Kevin J. Anderson writes more, his Star Wars novels are among my favorites from the EU.

I'm pretty excited for the new movie, no matter what you think about the films later, seeing a new Star Wars film in the theater for the first time is always great. I am working on one more book in the Vader series right now, but no plans for anything Episode 7 yet...

I loved reading Calvin and Hobbes when I was growing up - there's definitely some influence there, though it wasn't necessarily a conscious effect.

So many, so I'll list the ones I've read recently and am looking forward to reading: Lydia Davis, whose short stories are perfect. Haruki Murakami is another I really enjoy. As for cartoonists, I really like Pascal Girard, whose new book 'Petty Theft' I just read. There's a ton of cartoonists - Chris Ware, Julie Doucet, Genevieve Castree, Dan Clowes. Eleanor Davis has a new book out this week, and I've loved her work for a long time.
