Thanks to io9, we have a few great illustrations from the upcoming book written by Ian Doescher that reimagines George Lucas' The Empire Strikes Back in the style of William Shakespeare. The book is called The Empire Striketh Back, and the artwork is done in a beautiful black-and-white Elizabethan-style. To preview some written samples from the book, click here.
