Chris Sprouse posted some completed Star Wars comic book covers and alternate concepts

2 more of my Star Wars: The Force Awakens 10th anniversary variant covers were published yesterday. 1st up is this image of Finn in the Millennium Falcon, which started life as a spaceship chase scene before becoming what you see here.

My 8th Force Awakens 10th anniversary variant cover is out today and can be found on Marvel's Star Wars: Legacy of Vader #5.

So many sketches were done and sent to Marvel and Lucasfilm. There was one more set, bringing the total to 12l, but I didn't save a copy of the 3rd set, apparently...
