New "Star Wars Rebels" Cartoon Extended Trailer

OK - I'm officially looking forward to this series.
 I've always preferred my Star Wars to be focused on scrappy underdogs and
hidden/rare Jedi - so this new trailer pushes all my nostalgic old school Rebel buttons.

Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi - Dark Horse Comic Preview

Alternate covers and 3 page preview (via Newsarama) of the new Dark Horse Star Wars Expanded Universe Comic debuting in February. The five issue series from one of my favorite writer/artist teams John Ostrander & Jan Duursema takes the story a long time ago all the way back to the creation of the Jedi Order on the planet Tython. And while not being promoted as a direct tie-in, players of the new MMO game SW: The Old Republic should find this very interesting background material.

The Spy Who Yub Nubed Me - Star Wars: Agent of the Empire Comic Covers by Stephane Roux

Stephane Roux's Shagadelic covers for this series are a perfect mix (shaken not stirred) of  Star Wars 

and Bond. The compositions and color choices manage to evoke the vintage 70's poster art of both iconic series in a subtle fresh way without being too spot on retro.
