NEW STAR WARS: DARK EMPIRE POSTER BY MATT BUSCH!

Artist Matt Busch has produced a limited edition poster that was given away for free at the Star Wars Celebration VI show in Orlando, Florida. Authorized by Lucasfilm, the poster commemorates the 20th anniversary of Dark Horse’s comic book / graphic novel series, Dark Empire.

“My favorite storyline in the Star Wars saga is Dark Empire.” Busch elaborates, “I love the idea that Luke is tormented with needing to know why his father turned to the Dark Side. That series really inspired me as a young adult and lit the fire under my bum to really go after my dreams. So this poster is really a tribute, both as a fan and a professional.”

Copies of the poster were given away free each day to the first 50 attendees at Busch’s exhibitor booth. The poster measures 24″ x 36″ (movie poster size) and was printed courtesy of Busch. “This is really my way of saying thank you to all the fans and friends who have been supportive of my career.”
