IMG_2448bAlas poor Declan Jabba, I knew him well. That is, I hope our readers are now more aware of the Jabba the Hutt that could have been.

“Han, my boy! Why’d ya hahv ta go kill poowah Greedo like that?”

Well, he got a good run in Blue Milk Special as the real Jabba, but it had to come to an end. It seems all good villains buy the moisture farm eventually. Letting go of Tarkin was a little harder, but Declan certainly found a place in our hearts. I don’t think I ever shared my Declan Jabba custom action figure with you guys. Here it is. I know its not great, but I never said I was good at this stuff!

Star Wars Episode IV – Jabba the Hutt as Declan… by twenty24

Mid July – State of Rod report…

I’ve been reading Starship Troopers, and Armor. The latter was brilliant and extinguished the Paul Verhoeven comedy boob flick adaptation from my mind! Very interesting points of view on war, patriotism, and most importantly, powered-armor suits. I had no idea just how WRONG that film adaptation was until I read this book. It should have been an art film, not an action flick.

I’m currently working my way through one of my favorite works by Bradbury, Something Wicked This Way Comes. I loved the Buena Vista film adaption in 1983 with Johnathan Pryce. We screened it again recently. Class.

Playing a little X-COM, UFO Enemy Unknown through the open source version of the game release in June 2014. It was a game I watched my friends play in the mid 1990s because I never had a computer powerful enough at the time to play the cutting edge games. This one is a true classic and remains addictive today. Ugh…. I just want to bring it to life in some sort of Webcomic venture. Gimmie a list of your favorite aliens and robots from throughout sci-fi and I’ll see what sticks.

I’m still looking for someone to stargaze with in the Maryland area. Preferably you have a telescope.

Let’s see, what else? Can any of our military readers recommend any GOOD books about marines, in-the-field ops, special ops, sweeping buildings, recon, etc. I have an idea. Email me at bluemilkspecial@gmail.com

PATREON SUBSCRIPTIONS

logo_emblemPatreon offers readers a way to support the artists they love with a regular subscription to their work. It’s basically like an ongoing Kickstarter campaign, where you can pledge to give us an amount which you specify every time we release a new piece of content (a webcomic strip). Don’t worry, you can set a maximum amount in case you’re worried about spending too much in a month.

Just so you all know, WE ARE NOT SUDDENLY CHARGING YOU FOR BLUE MILK SPECIAL CONTENT, IT IS STILL FREE. We are just asking for help and ​Patreon offers a way for those of you who can afford to support us to do so. At the same time, you’ll have a much closer connection to us and receive a lot of exclusive Patreon only Blue Milk Special content and perks to show our appreciation. Want to see Boba Fett beyond the Sarlacc pit? Support us and let us know what you want more or less of. We will listen and we want be able to chat with fans.

If we can get some extra help financially, then it makes the project easier and provides an additional incentive for Leanne and myself to create new strips more frequently. That means more content for you guys. All readers will benefit, but ​Patreon supporters will get extra good stuff.
