X-Wing
To close this year’s May the Fourth, I want to throw in the tabletop game I recently got hooked on, X-Wing. Normally I’m not big on games that are exclusively minis driven but my local store (Rogues Gallery) did a really … Continue reading
May the Fourth be with you today!
My bigger plans to have the stats for the entire 727 Jump Brigade fell through via my procrastinating, parties and poor time-management skills. I did manage to make it to the Lego Store to get the annual Star Wars boon, this year it … Continue reading
Han drank first!
Han Burgandy that’s who! An awesome mashup of everyone’s favorite Seventies intergalactic smuggler scoundrel who moonlights as San Diego’s most trusted anchorman! Along with his navigator Baxter! I love that the artist managed to get this to imitate the beloved Drew Struzan … Continue reading
Anime Star wars!
What a kick-ass job despite the bad guys being the stars. It should give my friend Matt comfort since he tends to take the Imperials when we play X-Wing. I loved how you see the shields manifest around the X- … Continue reading
Darth Vader #1; main selling point is its ties to Marvel Star Wars
Marvel’s second Star Wars title focuses on the movie’s original villain and his activities after the Death Star’s destruction. Unlike most comics in which the characters’ story rarely overlaps into another title; e.g. Batman events are rarely mention in say Justice League … Continue reading
The Darth Bane trilogy by Drew Karpyshyn
What began as an impulse buy on May the Fourth (be with you), transformed into the inspiration for the 727th Jump Brigade Lego set and probably re-awakened my love of Star Wars more than the Force Awakens trailer. It’s always a shame that … Continue reading
Star Wars #1 is alright so far but nothing groundbreaking…
…except Marvel trying harder than they did from 1977-86. I think that despite Disney handing them the title on a silver platter, Marvel’s work will be better thanks to Dark Horse raising the standard after their 21-year run. I bought … Continue reading
Star Wars returns to Marvel Comics
To celebrate, Nick of Rogues Gallery put together an additional diorama from his action-figure collection to show that the characters share our enthusiasm.
Meet the (Old) Republic’s 727th Jump Brigade
Damn J.J. Abrams and his teaser trailer. He unfortunately re-awakened my latent, deflated Star Wars mojo after George Lucas killed it with the help of terrible acting, a plot written by the eight-year-old version of me (actually, I would’ve done better) … Continue reading

New title could’ve been worse
The Force Awakens…well, it’s certainly better than Attack of the Clones which made little to no sense. For JJ Abrams, this title is sophisticated. What I’m puzzled about is what was the Force doing after Return of the Jedi? Did the Ewoks poison … Continue reading
Star Wars body count
Despite the annoying yet infectious ©Rap music accompanying this (then again, so is small pox and I don’t want it), someone with too much time on their hands figured out how many people kissed it in the only good Star Wars trilogy. They … Continue reading
This trap goes to 11!
Look above and you’ll see Lego Admiral Ackbar approves!
I don’t know officer, droids do all look alike
An overdue mashup from a new place I scored some shirts from, Teepublic. Normally I’d pass on most Star Wars jokes but if Bender is involved, then I’m sold. Although everyone’s favorite binge-drinking, kleptomaniac has no political loyalties (beyond himself, making him a … Continue reading
