Star Wars Volkswagen Super Bowl Commercial

TF.N is reporting that there will be two :30 second Volkswagen commercials during the 2nd and 4th quarters of Super Bowl XLV. Why do we care?

"With its all-new 2012 Passat ad, Volkswagen brings Star Wars™ to one of TV’s most talked about events. Accompanied by John Williams’ iconic “The Imperial March,” the spot features the most infamous villain in the galaxy, a pintsized Darth Vader who uses the Force when he discovers the all-new 2012 Passat in the driveway. The two iconic brands leverage humor and the unforgettable Star Wars score to create an emotional spot and make Super Bowl ad history."

New Star Wars Comic Series Coming

Star Wars Books discovered from the Dark Horse Comics Facebook page that:

"This week we will be debuting images of a brand-new series, featuring one of the most beloved-characters in the universe. The series will be written by a well-known creator who hasn't worked within the universe for a few years, and will be drawn by an artist coming to Dark Horse for the first time. Any guesses as to what it will be?"

Randy Stradley, Dark Horse Comics' Editor, wrote via Dark Horse Comics' Message Boards that "the news is scheduled to break first on MTV next week, then spread to other news outlets" and regarding the "most beloved-character", teased speculating fans:

I'll give you two hints:
1. It's a character from the movies
2. It's not Yoda

Hmmmm.... Who could it be? Stay tuned for more!
