<br />
For some unknown reason folks are talking about Star Wars a lot this week. The din is pretty overwhelming, so I've limited my mentions of that space movie series on the interwebs for good reason. But if you permit me this one indulgence I promise I won't make it a regular occurrence.<br />
<br />
I consider myself to have had three small contributions to the greater Star Wars world...<br />
<br />
#1.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tHEBARGQSaE/VnA3HQTOSPI/AAAAAAAACaw/NUGBNLCjS2A/s1600/serveimage-4.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tHEBARGQSaE/VnA3HQTOSPI/AAAAAAAACaw/NUGBNLCjS2A/s320/serveimage-4.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
The first would be the fact I was the first, that I've been able find, to suspect (mid 1990s) confirm (around 2000 by email with Mr. Shearer) and publish (on Wookipedia in the early 2000a, but it was removed after a few years as being "original content") the for-some-reason unknown trivia that Harry Shearer - Simpsons, Spinal Tap, Le Show - looped (replaced the voices of) three actors in the original 1977 Star Wars. Shearer was hired, before he was as well known as he was to become and in his "penurious days", along with a number of LA area DJs and voice actors to replace original British accents of actors playing minor characters with American ones. Shearer's voiceover work was for a Star Destroyer officer near the beginning of the film reporting to Darth Vader on the Blockade Runner ("There's no one on board, sir..."), a different Imperial character a little later commenting on the escape pod ("There goes another one..."), and a Rebel pilot during the attack on the Death Star. Others have picked up on one or two of these since, but as far as I can tell I was the first to write about this. Scroll down to near the bottom of <a href="http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Voice-dubbing-in-the-first-film/id/14056" target="_blank">this post</a> for more info on it.<br />
<br />
#2.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1XtZHjtarIw/VnA4QeCZAOI/AAAAAAAACa8/eMs3KWR9uyM/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-12-15%2Bat%2B7.56.22%2BAM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1XtZHjtarIw/VnA4QeCZAOI/AAAAAAAACa8/eMs3KWR9uyM/s320/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-12-15%2Bat%2B7.56.22%2BAM.png" width="275" /></a></div>
<br />
Along with cofounders Todd Franklin and original idea man Mike Middleton I started the <a href="https://www.flickr.com/groups/growingupstarwars/" target="_blank">Growing Up Star Wars group</a> on the photo sharing site Flickr (back when it was a fun place to share and socialize) in 2008. With over 1600 members sharing their vintage (1976 to 1985) photos, drawings, and other images it's an amazing place to soak in the fun, more innocent vibe that permeated the original Star Wars craze. Interest in the group grew quickly, with articles and shout outs from sites like Time Magazine and the writers of the Simpsons tv show. Todd and I were encouraged to spend a year putting together a mass market book (along with a major book packager) based on the group and negotiated a deal with a major publisher. Unfortunately it fell apart at the last minute when Lucasfilm pulled their tacit approval due to a conflict with another book they were planning on publishing around the same time.<br />
<br />
#3.<br />
<br />
After being a big fan of Marvel's Star Wars comic book series as a kid from 1977 to the early 1980s (when I stopped collecting comics) it was really an honor to work on official Star Wars comics (and children's books) from 1996 to 2000. Lassoed in by legendary comic artist Ken Steacy to at first assist on 11 Star Wars book for kids for publishers such as Random House, Disney, Golden Books and others...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ByoyBOfKF3I/VnAl0OFtLsI/AAAAAAAACaQ/c6-Xgjba4tw/s1600/51W1R98X3SL.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="317" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ByoyBOfKF3I/VnAl0OFtLsI/AAAAAAAACaQ/c6-Xgjba4tw/s320/51W1R98X3SL.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
...and then co-illustrate two serialized Star Wars comics originally published by Darkhorse Comics in Star Wars Kids magazine, and one 64 page mini-comic story originally intended to be included (a chapter at a time) in boxes of a popular fruit snack product for the North American market.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kdy2Lxo5l8s/VnAjX6z7PDI/AAAAAAAACaE/-DbXSvylKeo/s1600/SW2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kdy2Lxo5l8s/VnAjX6z7PDI/AAAAAAAACaE/-DbXSvylKeo/s320/SW2.jpg" width="222" /></a></div>
<br />
The mini-comic eventually was published online on Darkhorse's website. Both comics were reprinted more recently in the currently out-of-print Darkhorse anthology series <a href="http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Omnibus:_Wild_Space_Volume_1" target="_blank">Star Wars Omnibus Volumes 1</a> &<a href="http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Omnibus:_Wild_Space_Volume_2" target="_blank"> 2,</a> collecting obscure Star Wars comics from 1977 to the 2000s. (autographed copies are still available from me in limited numbers - drop me a line!)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3cOyqty6q-E/VnAmO2ETNKI/AAAAAAAACaY/civn4vP-MNU/s1600/serveimage-3.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3cOyqty6q-E/VnAmO2ETNKI/AAAAAAAACaY/civn4vP-MNU/s320/serveimage-3.jpeg" width="212" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
To celebrate (ie: cash-in) on the current marketing mania for all things Star Warsy I thought I'd share three never before seen original art pages from these projects. My original Star Wars comic art was sold in the 2000s, but I made high quality copies of all the art before that, so here are the original black and white inked pages before the titles and coloring was added. Ken did the rough breakdowns (sort of stick figure, rough pencil layouts), I drew the final tight pencil pages and laid in the word balloons and lettering by hand. I then inked (went over the pencils with a brush and black ink) the robots, ships, guns, other mechanical parts, and sound effects - and Ken inked the organic characters and final lettering in the word balloons. I helped color much of the mini comic as well.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7jat6pOSLmA/VnAmavzOUJI/AAAAAAAACag/w0tDuDJQ3oQ/s1600/SW3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7jat6pOSLmA/VnAmavzOUJI/AAAAAAAACag/w0tDuDJQ3oQ/s320/SW3.jpg" width="268" /></a></div>
Interest in my Star Wars work has increased over the past few years, so I've gone from barely mentioning it to attempting to respond to the growing demand with autographed copies of the Star Wars Omnibus graphic novels, commissions (original SW themed art for fans have me draw for them), and original art cards (small, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/glenmullaly?section_id=15777820&ref=shopsection_leftnav_5" target="_blank">original Star Wars themed painted illustrations</a>) like those pictured below...<br />

There are a few other minor SW related connections, but for now I thought I'd get down in print my brush (get it?) with the Star Wars universe for posterity. Now if I can just arrange for J.J Abrahms to suddenly develop an interest in hiring me for his next SW movie...</div>

<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: #f6b26b;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">I recently had the pleasure to create an infographic-meets-comic strip style project for the fine folks at the highly respected Commonwealth Fund organization. It's based on a study from the Isle (technically a "Balliwick"!) of Jersey between England and France, where postal carriers checked in on, and helped with reminders and deliveries for, some of the frail elderly population. Really interesting approach. The slideshow and comic strip versions of the project are online now available </span><a href="http://www.commonwealthfund.org/interactives-and-data/infographics/2015/sep/call-and-check" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" target="_blank">here!</a></span></span></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: #f6b26b; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Come say hi next Saturday, July 18th at the 28th annual TD Art Gallery Paint-In in warm and sunny Victoria, BC. Between 11am and 4pm I'll be demonstrating that thing that I do (whatever that is!) along with more than 160 other painters, sculptors, illustrators and visual artists of all stripes. </span></div>
<span style="color: #f6b26b;"></span><br />
<div style="background-color: black; display: inline; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="color: #f6b26b;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Last year's Paint-In, located up and down nearly 2km of beautiful Moss Street from Fort St to the Dallas Road waterfront, was my first - and a great success. More than 35,000 people a</span></span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline !important;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">ttended and had the chance to check out my original art, prints, books, comics and more - and once again I'll have free colouring pages for the young set. I'm also pleased to announce that for the first time I can accept credit card payments, in case you run out of cash!</span></span></span></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 6px;">
<span style="color: #f6b26b;"><span style="background-color: black;">In addition to the artists, there's a large selection of food available, the Art Gallery of Great Victoria is holding it's annual open house, the Moss Street Market will be on that morning, and there will be tons of other activities from a beer garden for the adults to a bouncy castle for the kids. For the bargain hunters among you there will be dozens of yard sales that happen along the street at the same time as well. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="color: #f6b26b;"><span style="background-color: black;">The weather looks to be sunny and warm, certainly much nicer than last year's breezy event, so put on the sunscreen and I'll see you at my spot between George St and Clover Ave - a couple blocks up from Dallas Road.</span></span></div>

<br />
Back in 2012 I had the pleasure to be involved in a wonderful project lead by <a href="http://www.rodaleinc.com/" target="_blank">Rodale publishing</a> and art director Chris Rhoads. Rodale, based in Pennsylvania had heard that an Allentown PA twelve year old had been battling cancer for the third time and that his one wish was to be a comic book creator. Collaborating with Zachi Telesha during his ongoing battle, sugeries and chemotherapies Rodale translated Zachi's ideas and stories into a comic book style book that I was privileged to illustrate in a classic Jack Kirby inspired style.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
The book's printing, and all of Rodale's involvement was donated and copies of the finished Hero Up were given away to schools, as well as sold over the next couple of years to raise money for children with pediatric cancer in PA. <a href="http://www.lehighvalleylive.com/allentown/index.ssf/2013/04/allentown_middle_school_studen_1.html" target="_blank">Unfortunately Zachi lost his battle in 2013</a>, but his story and the Hero Up book lives on inspiring others.<br />

I recently ran across a great story about the nonprofit organization <a href="http://www.icingsmiles.org/" target="_blank">Icing Smiles</a> who<span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><span style="background-color: black; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 21.420000076293945px;">provides custom celebration cakes and other treats to families impacted by the critical illness of a child. Back in 2013 when Icing Smiles was asked by the <a href="http://www.philarmh.org/our-programs/ronald-mcdonald-camp/" target="_blank">Ronald McDonald Camp</a> in Greely </span></span><span style="line-height: 21.420000076293945px;">Pennsylvania</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 21.420000076293945px;"> to come up with a special superhero hero themed cake for the children attending, they brilliantly decided on adapting Zachi's Hero Up book. Each child got a copy of the comic and a slice of the giant, 4 foot by 2 foot cake (350 servings) featuring the </span></span><span style="line-height: 21.420000076293945px;">superheroes</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 21.420000076293945px;"> that a kid battling cancer, just like them, had created. <a href="http://www.icingsmiles.org/blog/2013/09/16/hero" target="_blank">Apparently it was a great success. </a></span></span></span></div>

Do you occasionally visit a McDonald's restaurant in the US or Canada? Do your kids like free puzzles, games and activities? If you answered yes to any of the above (or just want some free Glen Mullaly art) be sure to stop by one of the thousands of participating McDonald's this month and pick up a free copy of the Halloween issue of Fun Times magazine chock full of my art and, as it says on the tin... fun!</span></span></div>
