Mynock Manor@mynockmanor· Jul 2

Great time to get the Legacy audiobook as I'm digging into my review this weekend. But also a pleasant little surprise of Eyes Like Stars! Less likely to have a review of it on time, but will do my best! #StarWarsBooks

A boy with white hair and a shorter girl with red hair adorn a beautifully colored cover of depicting clouds with oranges, purples, pinks, and yellows, and two little TIE fighters flying overhead. There's a gold stylized border. Cover for Ashley Poston's Star Wars: Eyes Like Stars

Glad to have procured the three #PrideMonth connecting variant covers for #StarWarsComics! Had to do a little photoshoot for @ryagawa.bsky.social's excellent work!!

Rickie Yagawa Pride Month Variant Cover for Rogue One: Jyn Erso #1 which depicts characters against a starry blue background, from left to right: Vildar Mac (in brown typical Jedi robes), Terec and Ceret (also in their Jedi robes), Mother Aniseya and Mother Koril (in their more ornate, coven-like robes), and Tey Sirrek (with a green cape, black top, white pants). The cover is placed so that reflective rainbows glimmer across it

Rickie Yagawa Pride Month Variant Cover for Shadow of Maul #4, which depicts characters against a starry blue, slowly turning tealish background, from left to right: Cinta Kaz and Vel Sartha kneeling next to one another in street clothes, Sabé is behind them, in a white outfit and flowing cape, Doctor Aphra stands in the center, aviator glasses and red/black vest with racing gloves on, and lastly there's Just Lucky, in his yellow/black vest, and Ariole in his blue jacket and brown pants. The cover is placed so that reflective rainbows glimmer across it

Rickie Yagawa Pride Month Variant Cover for Galaxy's Edge: Echoes of the Empire, which depicts characters against a tealish background, from left to right: Wrobie Tyce (x-wing pilot suit) and Lama D’Acy (brown Resistance fatigues), Rae Sloane (white grand admiral uniform with her back mostly turned towards the reader), T’onga (with her spiky pink hair and beige sleeveless vest) and Losha (who we really just see her head), and Sana Starros (her slick black outfit with the green accents of a scarf and a skirt). The cover is placed so that reflective rainbows glimmer across it

Our fav lil' watering hole Station No.6 had TROS on last night and felt fitting given I'm reading @authoroux.bsky.social's Legacy! #StarWarsBooks (kudos to the wife with the good timing shot!)

Phone held in hand displays the cover for Star Wars: Legacy, which depicts Leia and Rey. In the background is the bar, its shelves full of liquor, and a TV screen playing The Rise of Skywalker and the image captured shows Rey with two lightsabers, blocking incoming Force lightning

*Me, every time I visit the Memorial wall, beer half empty and tears pooling up* "You were the chosen one! I loved you." *Stumbles away, not ready to lose another Operator* #ZeroCompany www.ea.com/games/starwa...

Screenshot from the article with an image of a male Twi'lek hologram in Zero Company's Memorial wall with this text:
The Memorial honors Operators who have made the ultimate sacrifice. Visit this facility to reflect on their legacy, and review the stats and accomplishments that defined their service to Zero Company.

Wrapped up TMNT: The Last Ronin, hit as good as all the hype I've heard for it. Now it's time to jump into SW: Legacy, but boy howdy did I do a double take while reading Ronin when Casey Marie had this very Doctor Aphra coded design:

In a panel from The Last Ronin, a woman walks down a hallway towards one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. She's got long hair and an aviator cap on her head, its goggles up, with a black leather jacket, white shirt, and Black leather pants.

Mynock Manor@mynockmanor· Jun 2

Just screaming again over the cover and the idea of this novel. So hyped to dive in!! Reviews lift July 14 so expect one then. #Legacy #StarWarsBooks

Mynock Manor@mynockmanor· Jun 1

Can't believe it's been 12 years since I started the Manor. Celebrated by grabbing some art pieces at a lil' dive bar on the list of the Bay View Gallery Night event over the weekend. Been wanting a Padmé piece for a while and ended up with two, in a way, that quote just hits with Mt. Rushmore. 1/3

Three pieces of art on a couch cushion. Two are old plates with new writing etched over the original images. One plate has a picture of mount Rushmore accompanied by the quote "what if the democracy we thought we were serving no longer exists?" And the other plate has a young couple getting their palm reading/tarot card reading and the words "the force is strong with this one." The final is a stylized images of Padmé's face in one of her elaborate and wonderful hairstyles

Had plenty of fun with this one! Lots of things I enjoyed seeing on the big screen I'd never imagined we would. So many creatures. Visual and practical effects teams went absolutely bonkers. A dang fine A Star Wars Story. Full review to come! #TheMandalorianandGrogu

Our little group for the Mandalorian and Grogu. There's 5, one sacrificed for the photo, and it's me and my wife and some of our friends I'm carrying a lego Grogu and one of the gals is carrying a Grogu doll ha

I'm building the Starship Collection Millennium Falcon LEGO and boy, Kylo Ren's daddy issues went much further than we realized

Photo of me holding a detachable lightsaber blade at the top of the Starship Collection Millennium Falcon LEGO that's only partially built and it looks like a cross guard lightsaber hilt.

Been almost a year since I read Project Hail Mary, before I even knew they were making the film, but absolutely not disappointed in the slightest. What a damn delight. Good old-fashioned movie gold. Couldn't have asked for better with...well IYKYK. Amaze, Amaze, Amaze indeed. #ProjectHailMary

Photo from inside the movie theater of a pre-movie image on the screen depicting Ryan Gosling in Peoject Hail Mary

Seriously don't understand why Disney isn't making The Hunt for Ben Solo yet, just look what 'A.I.' realized we could've had:

Screenshot from https://youraislopbores.me/. My prompt: "Dear computer, how do I make a hunt for Ben Solo as dreamy as possible?"
'A.I.' responded: "Cover him in his own blood. Men tend to look more dreamy if they are covered in their own blood."

Mynock Manor@mynockmanor· Mar 7

If you're a mynock, you're always about to be roasted

Screenshot from https://youraislopbores.me/ where my prompt was: "Would you roast a mynock?" And the 'A.I.' aka actual human response was: "The creature or the spaceship from Campaign Podcast? Either way yes"

Mynock Manor@mynockmanor· Mar 6

Look, Outlaws, Knights of the Old Republic (neither!), NOR Episode 1 - Racer were on the list, so maybe one or two would've been replaced by those. Maybe. Sure this'll change in a few months if I think on it more (and they add other games).
