This week's episode is a behind-the-scenes discussion with writer, editor and translator Ricardo Cachoua Jr. (https://twitter.com/RiCachoua_Vader), who works with Panini Comics Mexico to translate Marvel Star Wars comics into Spanish for the Latin American market.
It's a fascinating look into how comics are made, what the process entails and what goes into ensuring that the story is not only true to the English-language version, but done so that the nature of not just the tale, but Star Wars itself, isn't lost in the process.
Cachoua is the author of "The Cosmic Traveler's Clandestine Guide to the Star Wars Universes," an unofficial guide to the Saga.
