December 22, 2021 at 6:56 am | Posted in Books, Chronicle Books, Star Wars | Leave a commentTags: jeffrey brown
I’ve never reviewed a calendar before, so here goes. Chronicle Books sent me a 2022 calendar featuring the beautiful artwork of Darth Vader and his kids by the talented Jeffrey Brown. If you’re a fan of the Darth Vader and Son books, this is a great calendar option for next year.
Each month features a large size print of Jeffrey Brown’s Star Wars artwork. They’re great reproductions as each of them are pieces that have appeared in his Star Wars books. The calendar is done on nice thick paper. Each month is easy to read and features all the holidays and then some.
Overall, it’s a nice calendar and it looks great hanging on the wall. Unlike a lot of calendars, this one will be perfect for Star Wars fans, especially if you have kids. So if you need a last minute gift, or you just need to pick up a calendar for the new year, this one is a perfect option. Five out of five.

‘Rey and Pals’ Interview with Jeffrey Brown
August 19, 2019 at 6:54 am | Posted in Books, Chronicle Books, Interview, News, Star Wars, Star Wars Books, Star Wars News | 2 CommentsTags: jeffrey brown, rey and pals
Tomorrow, Jeffrey Brown’s new book Rey and Pals will be out from Chronicle Books and we had the opportunity to ask him a few questions. Enjoy!
What’s your creative process like? For example, do you start with a list of ideas for the jokes, or do you start with doodles or thumbnail sketches to develop the ideas.
I usually start with the ideas – for Rey and Pals, I came up with almost 200 initial ideas! Sometimes these start with a quote from one of the films and I need to figure out a situation to use it, or I might want to make a joke about a real life situation and figure out what scene from the film I could use to make the joke. Other times there’s something from the films I want to draw – like Maz’s castle with its menagerie of aliens – and I need to figure out a joke that might fit with it. These ideas are all drawn as tiny thumbnail sketches, which I then work with my editors at Chronicle and Lucasfilm to refine and flesh out before I start final artwork.

Darth Vader & Son and Vader’s Little Princess Deluxe Box Set is out today from Chronicle Books.
Jeffrey Brown’s beloved reimagination of the Star Wars universe featuring Darth Vader as a devoted dad to young Luke and Leia has charmed and captivated fans of all ages, and the books have become galactic bestsellers and classics in their own right.
This deluxe gift box set reproduces the first two books in the series (Darth Vader & Son and Vader’s Little Princess) in a large format that showcases Brown’s funny, colorful work (and doubles as ‘storybook size’ for those sharing the books with young Jedis).
The slipcase edition also includes two unique, 4-color frameable art prints created just for this set, as well as custom artwork for the slipcase box.
Note this one is 8″ x 8″ in comparison to the normal 6-1/2″ x 6-1/2″ format of the previous versions.
