Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Child

Jeffrey Brown, the author of the Darth Vader and Son series, brings his humorous take on the Star Wars galaxy to The Mandalorian. The series features Din Djarin, a Mandalorian bounty hunter, and his adorable Grogu, who travels the galaxy with him. Brown's colorful all-ages style and spin complement the show's gritty milieu while accentuating the sweetness of the found family at the heart of the story. His unexpectedly funny touches and twists will thrill fans and give them a way to appreciate the show in a whole new way. The Mandalorian has the highest viewership of any live-action show on Disney+ and has consistently dominated since its debut in 2019. The finale of Season 2 had an estimated 1.1 million viewers, and the finale episodes of the follow-up show, The Book of Boba Fett, focused so much on the continuation of The Mandalorian and Grogu's story that it was dubbed "Mandalorian Season 2.5" by fans. Grogu, the child, is beloved by fans and has inspired a merch explosion, fan art, and an unquenchable desire for the fan-dubbed "Baby Yoda." The Mandalorian's relationship with the child is the perfect playground for Brown's charming take on fatherhood, similar to his Darth Vader character in Darth Vader and Son.
