From Jeffrey Brown, an artist who landed on a most charming angle on the GFFA that can be repeated across the timeline comes The Mandalorian and Child looking at the relationship between Din Djarin and Din Grogu told in Brown’s classic style. StarWars.com gave us a first look inside the covers, revealing a number of familiar Mandoverse characters.

His latest work, The Mandalorian and Child, is closer to the story from The Mandalorian in premise while retaining the trademark wit that makes Brown’s work both highly amusing and entirely relatable to parents in this galaxy.

“One of the things to love about the Mandalorian is how his ultra-tough exterior is tempered by how sweet and tender he can be with Grogu,” Brown says of the cover art, capturing a playful moment between the Clan of Two. “Kids love bubbles. Who am I kidding, I love bubbles, too. I feel like beskar would have the right properties to enable making a highly efficient bubble machine that doesn’t clog up all the time.”

“I always like to pull from real life even when I’m working with fictional universes,” Brown says. “We’ve had a mobile of the solar system from the planetarium since our first son was born, so I thought Grogu should have a mobile made of planets, too.” But look closely and you may see some distant worlds from a galaxy far, far away. “Of course, his mobile isn’t our solar system, but features various planets visited by the Mandalorian.”
