These paintings by Hong Kong illustrator Tik Ka, mix Star Wars characters with Chinese art style. The end result is a collection of cute and adorable art done in a blended style we don’t see very often. These pieces have so many details that are easily missed the first time you see them, but look again and things jump out at you. These are very playful, yet there’s a certain amount of seriousness here too. There’s something about this that I love.
Nick Stember has translated a 142 page Chinese comic book adaptation of Star Wars that was originally published in Guangdong, China, in the 1980s. It’s crazy stuff. It’s best just to take a look for yourself. It seems to have been made without viewing Return of the Jedi, since there are elements of the other movies and none from Jedi.
Below are just some of the panels. You can hit up Nick’s website for the rest. This is a strange rabbit hole to fall into, but you can easily lose a lot of time looking through all of the images and translations.
