Rich and Hans did a book signing a the JAP Guild, an amazing shop that sells all sorts of Gothy jewelry and clothes, and have a Star Wars license to produce a range of Star Wars Jewelry. Here they are with the owner, who also owns an amazing bar nearby!!!!!



"Out and about......" Chinatown in Japan!


Rich and Hans in the Chinatown district of Yokahama, a suburb of Tokyo. After another busy book signing, or doing a presentation, they went out exploring and then had a wonderful dinner in a private room with a revolving table laden with exotic and aromatic dishes. Its a tough job, but someone has to do it!




They also did a Q&A at a lighthouse, where they spent some time organizing themselves with the help of Haruka and Mio, here with Rich. Peace, man.

What a time we had at Jedi Con in Dusseldorf, made some great friends! Especially the Bavarians!

San Diego, Comic Con, 2002. Hans with the Elvis Trooper. http://www.elvistrooper.com/

Hans and Rich on stage in front of thousands of Star Wars fans about to announce the winner of an award at the Fan Films Awards at Comic Con, San Diego, 2002. They had been given a script well in advance, which they had failed to learn. It was a long flight, they thought, we’ll learn it then. They didn’t. We’ll wing it, they thought, there’ll only be about twenty people. How wrong can you be.
