It’s not easy being a Sith Lord… and a proud papa. Especially when Junior insists on wearing Jedi gear. ---

It works brilliantly well. I was particularly struck with a shot of an AT-AT emerging from the mist, and another one of Darth Vader contemplating what looks like a half-finished tower block. There’s an extensive preview (pretty much the whole book, really) [here](http://archdezart.com/2012/03/13/dark-lens-series-with-star-wars-characters-cedric-delsaux/). ---

Huh. An oddball concept but brilliantly carried out! ---

Yeah, I may get it. I’ll have to think about it.
