Within issue #217, the celebrations begin for the 40th anniversary of the original trilogy's unforgettable conclusion. It delves into how Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (released in 1983) laid the groundwork for themes, concepts, and storylines that have since evolved in both films and television shows. Furthermore, it features interviews with Giancarlo Esposito (who portrays Moff Gideon in The Mandalorian), Grant Feely (who plays Luke Skywalker in Obi-Wan Kenobi), and John Knoll, the renowned special-effects supervisor from Industrial Light and Magic. Alongside a companion piece for Andor Season 1, and behind-the-scenes discussions with the creators of Star Wars: Timelines, this 100-page edition is packed with content!
