Check out Pablo Hidalgo’s latest blog offering, focusing on the challenges created by the sudden announcement that the sale of Lucasfilm to Disney had on the production of the 138th issue of the Star Wars Insider.
On October 25, I emailed editor Jonathan Wilkins at Titan Magazines, requesting that every effort be made to accommodate an upcoming major announcement that was brewing at Lucasfilm. “This could end up being the most important issue you’ve published to date,” I wrote, but I could not give him any specifics. I just said to hold the cover (and never advised what to run instead of a planned Clone Wars cover) and said that I have about 4,800 words of story coming his way, so that he had to move editorial around to make room. To his credit, Jonathan responded exactly the way a Star Wars fan should: he was excited to hear what was coming.
Don’t forget there’s all the usual sections of the magazine including My Star Wars with Toby Philpott, Launch Pad, Incoming, Celebration VI Through the Eyes Of…, Red Five, Blaster and my interview with Tsuneo Sanda. Click here for more details.
