Jet Pack envy?
We know TK-8008 has some fans out there and it seemed only natural that he would talk to Boba Fett at some point while they are both on Cloud City together. I hope you enjoy their conversation, short as it may be! You may notice the background indicates we are transitioning into the Carbon Freezing Chamber scene. I held the big debut of the room over for Monday, and you can get your sneak peak by voting for us at TopWebComics.com.
Thanks to Michael for sending me the link to RiffTrax’s Holiday Special commentary. It’s trimmed down to about 10 minutes. I figured I would share it, even though we finished the Holiday Special parody a couple of years ago. If you haven’t seen our parody, click here. In the meantime, you can enjoy RiffTrax slightly more watchable version. Do not keep razor blades within reach while attempting to watch the Holiday Special.
I am currently working with Leanne to put together a “Best of Leanne Hannah” art book. As soon as this is ready I will invite those that want to support us to purchase a copy. This book is not a Star Wars book, though it features several Star Wars and BMS related pieces. The book will collect Leanne’s work across various pop culture icons, illustrated throughout the 2000s to the present. The idea is to give BMS readers and fans of Leanne’s work a way of supporting the BMS project financially, rather than simply donating. I hope this will give us the boost we need to get through the next few months.
Fantastic strip, and next Monday’s is even better!
I enjoy your take on the whole thing so much, and it’s really great that you found a fresh take for a Star Wars parody after all the parodies before.
Definitely gettinng the art book when it’s out…
I was wondering if anyone could help me on this: with all the boba in cloud city strips I was reminded on how they swapped his voice for teumura morrison a few years back. it was argued to be to help the continuity, but doesn’t boba use a voice-changer in his helmet, or was that only his daughter when she acted as him in the EU? Would be glad if anyone who knows could tell me, because i’ve always thought that even his original voice soudned very filtered, altough that could jsut be due to wearing a helmet?
I don’t know about a voice changer in EU continuity, but you can clearly hear the difference in accents. I wish they’d just left it alone. The Prequels had no business bringing about the altering of the original films. They should have found a way to fit in and expand the universe, not rewrite it.
That Flying TK pose is definately getting some “Screen time”.
I commend your “GI Joe like” effective use of stock footage. 🙂
😛 There are actually two different flying TK poses.
I always find it funny how it looks like Vader is fondling the Force. 😛
McCrazy i didnt really notice that until one of the previous strips with the exchange between Han and Lando, and Vader having him by the balls i will never look at the OT the same, and thats meant as a complement Rod.
I would be most interested in a book of collected work of Leanne’s art. Keep up the excelent work.
Nice to know if Darth Vader fails at dominating the universe, he can still get a job working for children’s birthday parties. 😀
Vaders seems to enjoy bragging about the force or has a thing for TK-8008. That makes the “fondling” gesture and the childish grin on TK-8008 even more disturbing… o.O
