Episode #214 -- The Harvey Tolibao End-of-2020 Interview Spectacular
from Star Wars Splash Page · host Jeff McGee and Matt Moore
We thought it apt for our final episode of 2020 to end the year by looking forward to 2021 and the upcoming Star Wars event, The High Republic, in a wide ranging yet remarkably spoiler-free interview with artist Harvey Tolibao (https://twitter.com/harveytolibao/), who's illustrating IDW's The High Republic Adventures.Tolibao talks about how he was tapped to illustrate the IDW series, his excitement and how he's adapting to being involved in this next major step for Star Wars. We also delve into his comics history, efforts at education and outreach, his studio (www.behance.net/htmstudios) and the rich history of Filipino creatives and comics.It's no secret that Lucasfilm and Disney's High Republic Era is poised to launch a new epoch of Star Wars storytelling. The effort is taking root across books, short stories, novellas and of course comics, with two separate yet interlinked titles from Marvel (Star Wars: The High Republic starting Jan. 6) and IDW (Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures starting Feb. 3).Upcoming Star Wars comics include:Jan. 6_ Star Wars #10_ Star Wars: The High Republic #1 _ Darth Vader #7 (2nd Printing)Jan. 13 _ Darth Vader #9 _ Star Wars Adventures #3Jan. 20 _ Doctor Aphra #7Jan. 27 _ Bounty Hunters #9 _ Star Wars Adventures: Smuggler’s Run #2 (of 2)_ Star Wars: The High Republic #1 (2nd Printing)_ Star Wars Adventures #4_ Doctor Aphra (Vol. 2), Vol. 1, “Fortune and Fate” TPB _ Beware Vader’s Castle (Collects Tales From Vader’s Castle and Return to Vader’s Castle mini-series) HC _ Star Wars Adventures, Vol. 11, “Rise of the Wookiees” TPB _ Star Wars Adventures: The Clone Wars — Battle Tales TPBFeb. 3 _ Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures #1_ Star Wars #11_ Star Wars: The High Republic #2 Feb. 10 _ Darth Vader #10_ The Phantom Menace Graphic Novel Adaptation from IDW _ Star Wars Insider #200 (Peach Momoko Cover)Feb. 17 _ Star Wars Adventures #5_ Star Wars Adventures #6_ The Rise of Skywalker Graphic Novel Adaptation TPB (IDW)Feb. 24 _ Doctor Aphra Omnibus HC_ Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: “The New Republic,” Vol. 5 TPBMarch 3 _ Star Wars: The High Republic #3_ Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures #2March 10_ Star Wars #12March 17_ Bounty Hunters #10_ Star Wars Adventures #7March 24 _ Doctor Aphra #8April 7_ Star Wars (Vol. 3), Vol. 2, “Tarkin’s Will” TPBJuly 7_ Star Wars Legends: The Old Republic Omnibus Vol. 1 Announced But as Yet Unscheduled Comics _ The Mandalorian titles from Marvel & IDW----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Star Wars Splash Page is a weekly podcast dedicated solely to contemporary Star Wars comics published by Marvel, Dark Horse and previously IDW, featuring views about the current week's comics, interviews with the writers, artists, colorists, letterers and editors who create them, as well as the latest details on publishing schedules, upcoming series and mini-series, so that you, the listener have more detail and context about the comics that are a vital part of Star Wars canon, lore and legends.
