The Star Wars SA artists edition original cover art project :
With 2015 being a banner year for Star Wars, Marvel Comics released the 1st issue of the all new Star Wars saga through various official launch parties worldwide - Readers Den was one of those places :) The idea with this project was also to somehow give South African artists the chance to showcase their talents and of course their love of Star Wars ! Hence, mostly Cape Town based artists were invited to do a cover on the blank variant editions especially imported for this project ... and they delivered !!!
Lookout for original covers from these amazing illustrators : Alastair Brauns, Andre Human, Andrew Cramer, Ben Geldenhuys, Ben Winfield, Chip Snaddon, Chris Beukes, Danielle Albertyn, Daniël Hugo, Gina Viglietti, Jarred Cramer, Karl Mostert, Kay Carmichael, kEda Gomes, Moray Rhoda, Nicolas Rix, Rayaan Cassiem, Ryan Carolisen & Vincent Sammy.
