This week’s theme: Beautiful Planets!
Tony Harris’ Taul is one of the most beautifully drawn planets in all Star Wars comics. The oil-slick colors, busy linework, and crowded skies make me wish I could go there (nevermind the acid rain).
I’m from the South-West United States, so dramatic deserts are my favorite type of landscape. They’re certainly represented enough in science-fiction, my favorite genre, but this comic stands out among so many examples with its beauty and strangeness.
