Check out the new FaceBook page for Star Wars: Age 9!

John White is one of the regular faces here in the Blue Milk Special comment threads since the early days. Many of you already know that John has his own Star Wars webcomic. And it is AWESOME!

Like any good webcomic it has something unique about it. Just as the title suggests, John did an adaptation of the original Star Wars movie back in 1977-1980 starting when he was only aged 9 years old. Having found his old pages, John decided to share them with the online world and as such it’s a fascinating and often hilarious insight into the mind of our younger selves.

While the picture on the left is an example of his recent Special Editions drawn by his contemporary self, the majority of the strips come from the shaking pen and wobbly markers of a kid living in Ireland who was just escaping the 1970s. The best thing about this nostalgia trip is John’s commentary on his own work, often self depreciating, but always funny. Star Wars: Age 9 has some great articles about Star Wars and life and is the product of one of those rare geniuses that this world is lucky enough to have to keep life interesting!
