May The Fourth Be With You!!!

Placed on a memory disk on an unassuming R2 unit and shuttled off into an escape pod that landed on a desert planet…it’s today’s Fresh Comics!!!

Okay, so it looks like Clara came through and was able to whip some creative teams into shape long enough to produce some comics for this week’s Star Wars theme. Thank goodness, I was getting worried there for a second. I have to admit, I really enjoyed myself on this theme. The Star Wars universe is so broad and has so much potential for story, we could pretty much go anywhere with it and come up with an interesting story. While coming up with my script, I ended up writing three more…and the ideas were still coming. It’s something about getting involved on a project and immediately being transported back to your childhood. I remembered all of the Kenner Star Wars action figures that I destroyed in my back yard in some way or another. I had a super cool C-3PO that I managed to get stuck in a Tonka truck. Eventually I conceded that he was no longer going to be a protocol droid, and instead was moving into the earth moving business. It was a nice union job with good benefits and pension. It was at least somewhat safer and he no longer had to worry about getting his limbs ripped off by a pissed off Wookie.

I hope you guys enjoy our foray into the Star Wars Universe, and remember…MAY THE FOURTH BE WITH YOU!
