2025 Topps Star Wars Chrome Galaxy - Page 2

So 2025 Topps Chrome Star Wars Galaxy "The Empire" card art is from Star Wars Empire #39 comic book cover. The card lists at the back Davide. I looked at the comic book information and the fandom site lists a different "Cover artist" (Davide is the penciller). I also looked at cgc graded slabs of the Empire 39 comic and again the cover is credited to the same artist the fandom site referenced. Any chance people that are more into the Galaxy cards and comics could explain what is happening here?

Also, isn't it strange to not credit the colorists?

Base cards 5 and 60 have the wrong artists attributed on the backs. Base cards 18 and 72 have the top portion of the artwork mirrored.

Glad to see atomics /150 are back! Not having 2024 just doesn't feel right though

Sketches are pretty cool to pull
