*"The character of Princess Leia combines the qualities of charm, whimsy, nobility, and just plain fun that defines Star Wars for me," offers Bret Blevins. "And besides, I love this costume." A long time fan of fabled fantasy, Blevins began his career as an illustrator with his 1982 adaptation of The Dark Crystal for Marvel. Since then he's rendered "buckets of stuff," including The New Mutants, The Bovv Chronicles, Batman, Tarzan, and The Trouble With Girls. *Source: Back of card
