"This is my first official assignment for a galaxy far, far away. And a Pride one, nonetheless! As a queer Star Wars fan it feels awesome to contribute to this aspect of the franchise. Fully developed characters like Magna and Doctor Aphra prove once again that comics as a medium is the place in entertainment where limits and representation are pushed and equality is restored."
―Luciano Vecchio, on his Magna Tolvan art[4]
