Whether you're team prequels or team sequels, here's a giant batch of Star Wars memes to help distract you from reality.
Han Solo
If you're here for Infinity War memes, you're looking in Alderaan places.
Star Wars fans were overjoyed last night after being treated to the first Solo trailer during the Super Bowl - and today we've got a trailer. The clip features some familiar faces: Donald Glover as Lando Calrissian, Woody Harrelson as ringleader Beckett, and Emilia Clarke as Qi'ra, another part of their eventual crew. Alden Ehrenreich plays the title role of our favorite "Nerf herder," and in the Super Bowl spot you can almost picture his voice leaving Harrison Ford's mouth. Honestly, that's where the resemblance stops.
Fans seem a bit more excited about Glover's Lando - the trailer features him oozing Lando goodness, dressed in rich furs and cracking smug smiles. On this end, we're stoked to finally see a Han/Chewie meet-cute and exactly how Han became the most prolific smuggler in the galaxy. Just have to wait until Labor Day.
Illustrator Brian Kesinger may have made a name for himself with his illustration work at Walt Disney Studios, but it's his work outside of the movie business that really gets fans going. His steampunk art has been his most successful, featuring whimsical cephalopods and frilly fashions - but our favorite series of his combines the Star Wars universe with Calvin and Hobbes.
Steven Lear has been creating awesome album cover mashups for years - but most of his work features the Star Wars universe. He painstakingly recreates classic (and some more obscure) album art to include our favorite fandom characters. The results are often funny, and sometimes just beautiful. We've included a selection of our personal favorites, but there's much more to admire on Lear's Instagram.
