Katie Cook is no stranger to Star Wars monsters. For years she’s turned the galaxy’s grossest into its most adorable thanks to her expressive and charming cartoon-style art, as seen in titles like Star Wars ABC-3PO and Star Wars: OBI-123. Now the writer/artist is doing a head-first dive into the trash compactor with The Star Wars Book of Monsters, Ooze, and Slime, coming April 13 from DK Publishing, which will be exactly what it sounds like: a celebration of all of our favorite creepy creatures, yucky locales, and strange beings of the galaxy far, far away.
