Industry Focus

Tom is a lifelong fan of franchises including Doctor Who and Marvel, but Star Wars has become his area of specialism. He's always shown a deep interest in shared universes and transmedia projects, following Star Wars since the publication of the Thrawn trilogy in the early '90s.

Favorite Media
