Yearbook Photos from a Galaxy Far, Far Away

It’s the day we’ve all been waiting for since December 18, 2015—Star Wars: The Force Awakens is finally (almost) available on DVD, which means we can continue doing the light side’s work of committing the entire thing to memory.
With the galaxy far, far away on the brain, we spent all weekend diving into the depths of the Google trash compactor in search of hidden trivia and rumors about Episode VII, which is how we happened upon something we’re pretty sure no one has seen before: copies of the high school yearbooks from all of your favorite new TFA characters (look, just go with us on this… the intro is almost over). Never mind that the characters are all from different planets; we somehow found them all. You’re welcome! (We’d like to credit “photographer” Jeremy Wilson for his work here.)
