L’illustrateur Canadien Andrew Tran, vivant et travaillant en Californie, s’est fait plaisir en croisant ces personnages. Avec un petit faible pour la Mother of Rancors !
Andrew Tran – Tyrion Lannister the Imp Scoundrel
Andrew Tran – Arya Stark, Jedi Padawan
Andrew Tran – Jaime Lannister, Sith Slayer
Andrew Tran – Jedi General Daenerys, Mother of Rancors

The above image has been popping up on social media for the last day or so. It appears to be a set of posters for Mel Brooks’ long awaited sequel to Spaceballs, Spaceballs 2: The Search For More Money. These supposedly appeared in a New York City subway station. And it’s just plain evil.
