This week's episode features an in-depth interview with illustrator and concept designer Roberto Venegas, whose Star Wars illustrations may be quite familiar to you.

Venegas joined us to talk about the genesis of his first-ever comic, "Dyad," a tenderly written and lushly illustrated story that serves as a seamless postscript to 2019's "The Rise of Skywalker" film with its emphasis on the complex yet unsurprising relationship between Rey and Ben Solo. (There are spoilers for the comic, which you can read at https://bit.ly/2TZoDzN, and the film.)

It's an intriguing conversation about the love for Star Wars, its characters and concepts and the power of storytelling.
