[quote] I was walking around the Lucas headquarters and looking at all of the artifacts and just thinking about where I was, quite seriously. I passed some Indiana Jones stuff and I thought, « Well, that’s interesting. » I was already thinking about dark mirrors. Obviously, Triple Zero and BT are dark, very warped mirrors to C-3PO and R2-D2, but I needed someone to vaguely work as Han Solo. Vader is pretty much Luke. He’s the core character. I need someone to basically fit the Han Solo role, but someone who supports in a different way because, of course, Vader is very different to Luke. And I got into the Lucasfilm internal and thought, if you ethically invert Indiana Jones, that would be interesting. I already knew that I was interested in artifacts and him digging up older power sources. And here, you have a similar attitude to Indiana Jones – fails quite a lot, always plays the high risks, has a charming attitude but you have a completely different motivation. He wants to keep things safe. She wants to cause trouble. I thought that might be an interesting foil – that’s where she came from.
The first half of the issue is very much her introduction, and it’s basically homage. It’s basically me doing the opening to « Raiders of the Lost Ark. » Well, not basically. It matches the opening to « Raiders of the Lost Ark » beat for beat. [Laughs] [/quote]

La couverture sans le code-barre est amusante : apparemment, Granov a déplacé sa signature afin de la faire apparaître à côté du code-barre, mais sans enlever la première. Si bien que cela donne l’impression qu’il a signé deux fois.
