I guess, but I am more talking about the public release of wave 2. Since we all know it will be shown next week sometime, a week off wouldnt have hurt is all im sayin.

Mondo has been producing an exclusive series of Star Wars prints... with more to come throughout the year.
Is this a hint that the series will be finished by the end of the year? Or just confirmation that the series (once rumored to end with six) has a lot of life left in it?

If it's not totally open ended, I would love an idea as to how many there will be, and when it might be finishing up. (Part of the fun and anticipation of the Lost series came from counting down those eighteen question marks one by one.)

Anyway, it looks like Crumb will have the smallest edition size yet.

the detail is awesome, and I personally like it because it so over the top. It's not trying to act like a five thousand dollar oil, it's just badass.

I like the new SW print, but will pass as I've picked up a few ISO's over the last few weeks and print funds are at an all-time low :(

So being here in Austin for FF has it's advantages for sure. One of those advantages is hanging out in Mondo so much. Tonight I was in there and finally got to meet the elusive Justin (super sweet dude) as he was hanging this one up in the store (adios Iron Man 2) and let me tell you guys it's 1000x cooler looking in person. It's nowhere near as frantic looking. The colors blend beautifully on paper.
This will be the first Star Wars drop I'm not hitting F5 for as I'll be at Mondo at 10am to hand Justin cash for it and toss the tube in the trunk of my car.
Not to brag but on the last day of Fantastic Fest that really is one hell of a nice bonus

This has probably been the raddest 10 days in what's left of my memory. :D

Congrats--it sounds like you've had a great time. Good to hear!

I have to admit that it would be awesome to have Crumb in my hands tomorrow. Definitely a nice added benefit to being there in person, and a cool way to end the week.

That Crumb looks great! This gives me hope we'll see something with Jabba, or maybe the Rancor!
