Well, artists are working folks too! I suspect the best chance of a book happening is if 1) his other book, Rolling Thunder, sells well enough that he feels he can invest in all the re-creations without upfront painting or 2) fans pay him for commissions which will help him fund creation of the material for the book. I can't remember how much he charges. If the community is serious about this I would suggest banding together and doing the following.
1. Get a list of the pieces he is considering doing. 2. Let folks on-line (maybe via his website) pre-pay/commit to purchasing the recreations at some negotiated price. PS - I don't work for the guy, but I've met him twice, once at a how to session at SDCC a few years ago and then again at last year's SDCC. The guys is super down to earth and really enjoys talking/sharing his knowledge about art/art process. His massive star wars prints are awesome.

Read this post he made. We as a community could probably make this happen.
Dave Dorman’s The 5 Essential Truths of Art Directing « Dave Dorman BTW - page 80 and 81 of Rolling Thunder has some more of his art.

Dave posted a response!
He has 150 or so characters he developed... willing to do any of them as commissions but the list is long. Having said that maybe someone should take a dive and commission a random figure! Also, as part of his 30th anniversary print series he's chosen Feb to be Night Viper. It's only $30 for a limited (to 30) and signed giclee print. Dave Dorman- Star Wars art, fantasy art, comic book art, and much more I bought one already! Hurry it's awesome looking. The color selection is great!
