Today’s sketchbook entry

From the sketchbook yesterday:

On the drawing board today:

What I love about Skeleton Crew is how low the stakes are for the galaxy but how MASSIVE the stakes are for the characters. Episode 6 was just a series of mini crises and I was riveted by how they were going to handle each situation. It's good for Star Wars to just do something so peripheral.
