New Star Wars Encyclopedia On The Way? Posted By Mike on May 10, 2008
Friend of TFN, "Probe Droid", wrote in with the following cool news:
"Talked with Steve Sansweet at NY Comic-Con last Saturday, who told me that Del Rey is doing a big SW encyclopedia this fall. I messaged my contact there who told me: “Yes, we are doing a Star Wars encyclopedia this fall. It will be two hardcovers in a slipcase with full-color artwork. It will retail at $75. It will be an A to Z listing, covering the entire universe. The original encyclopedia was published 10 years ago…so there will be a ton of updating.”'
"Probe Droid" was also nice enough to send in a few pics from NYCC:
Steve Sansweet with J.W. Rinzler's The Complete Making of Indiana Jones
Steve Sansweet with Seth Green and Matt Senreich of Robot Chicken
Steve Sansweet with members of the 501st
Thanks "Probe Droid!"
