Mystery of the missing Rancor
The story of the missing Rancor continues and the mystery deepens. What has happened to our beloved Roxy? For those unfamiliar with “Roxy” the Rancor, she is the masterpiece of prop design produced by the the 501st Legion’s finest artisans. See last Friday’s –okay, really Saturday’s– strip for the first in this short series dealing with Roxy the Rancor.
I wish I could say that Roxy will be appearing at Awesome Con DC this Easter Weekend, but attendees will have to make do with Timothy Zahn, John Fass Morton (Boba Fett and Dak in TESB) and the 501st Legion instead. Oh, and Biggs Darklighter, the Anchorhead / BMS version! I’m excited! So, if we’re not enough reason for you to make it to the show, then maybe some of these folks will persuade you.
Awesome Con, Washington, DC is on the Easter Weekend. We will be in Artist Alley, at Table O9 (the letter “O”), facing the wall. Click here to download a PDF map of our table location. We are at table O-9 in Artist Alley. That’s the letter O.
LOCATION
Walter E. Washington
Convention Center
Washington, DC
We will have exclusive new Blue Milk Special buttons at the table. This is the first ever print run of buttons and feature Biggs, Boba, Vader and Slave Leia. Pick up this first wave before they’re gone and begin your collection of a series of all our major popular characters over the next year. These will be available online after Awesome Con DC for those unable to attend the show.
I always felt bad for the Rancor. After reading a “Boy and his Monster” it felt incredibly tragic to know if Luke had staged his rescue a day or two later, he would have been dropped into an empty cage while Malakili and his Rancor road off into the twin sunsets.
I’m glad to see that the Rancor gets to join the cast of Blue Milk Special survivors.
Hahaha, Luke is such a dork…
Good luck at the Con! Wish I could attend!
Love it.
Have my suspicions about the disappearence of Declan’s Rancor … after all a couple of other peole left the palace recently in unusual circumstances.
Re: Awesome Con – Looks like it’ll be great and you’ll have a fun time. Wish I could get there but it’s a bit far for me. Have fun though.
That should read – other people – sorry.
Oh hells to the yeah! Having Biggs and Oola riding off on Roxy would be epic
Sigh, no $ for Awesome Con. 🙁
See you at a show sometime… 🙂
Somebody get Jabba some roars and screams!
I like how Luke clearly appreciates the craftsmanship that’s gone into fake Roxy.
I was fully expecting to see John Pertwee and Aggedor 🙂
That thought never occurred to me. He could have tamed the Rancor with a Venusian lullaby. Darn it!
There always room for that giant one eyed creature who was I think an ambassador??
I will actually do that. Just for you. Well, and for me. Leanne and me. We love Alpha.
Yes make sure you stop by Old Line Garrison’s PR Table at 637 and head into the Kids Zone to take part in Blast-A-Trooper where we will be raising money for the Travis Manion Foundation.
Can’t wait to meet you guys at Awesome Con! It’ll be *awesome* to finally meet the creators of my favorite webcomic, nay, comic strip!
And I always feel bad for Malakili when he cries at the death of his beloved pet (technically Jabba’s, but still dear to him).
