Samuel L Jackson when, playing Mace Windu, wanted a purple lightsaber. Fans have spent ages trying to ascribe meaning to the colours of the sabres and what does it mean to have only one purple?

It means you can instantly see Mr. Jackson in any of the wide shots when his weapon is lit.

Scientifically, the Gold-shirts had an 18% chance to get killed on the USS Enterprise, under Kirk. The infamous Red-Shirts only had a 10% chance of being killed. (https://nerdist.com/star-trek-red-shirts-werent-statistically-the-most-likely-to-die-after-all/)

But the stereotype remains. I think it’s why they switched colours in TNG, the Redshirt union demanded a safer colour. It didn’t work.

So, with the medical tent selling a hand full of laser swords, to raise money for bandaids etc., at Pennsic: how many lightsabers could be out there?

We failed to take into account that some nerds might bring their own from home. Turns out, that the group from Australia brought a bunch of high quality FX lightsabres with them. So we begin our raid on their camp, and just hear several, much better lightsabres igniting from all directions.

It was a calculated risk… I failed maths twice…

So, way back in issue 183, I recalled the time at Pennsic when we failed to storm a cool pirate ship. Later that next day, one of our friends was telling a story about the bunch of Jedi who took the coll pirate ship. Apparently, there was another group who managed to get their hands on lightsabers. So we decided to raid them, because like how many laser swords could there be in a medieval war?

Hey, I have a comic. I knew I made this blog for a reason other than hating The Guardian Code. But really, all things should be used for hating The Guardian Code.

When I cut Arwen’s part from the re-issue, I forgot that she becomes important later. Maybe we’ll bring her back if I ever start making more again.

Arwen’s return would be a much bigger thing if I hadn’t cut her from the re-issue. Her original appearance just wasn’t that funny years later. In short, they met last war, were a thing for like two issues and then she left to join the Navy. Now she’s in colour and everything!

The reason I don’t like iApple is because for the entire time I was in school, the schools had iApple computers we had an IBM at home. The IBM was consistently better at everything than the school computers. Even when the school got the newest high-tech colours of iMac and I still had a 5 year old IBM.

Homework? IBM. Internet? IBM. Games? <a href=“https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjpn3L3bSJQ“> Photoshop isn’t a game, mac. </a>

Remember these guys? when I originally made these comics (and had my own website), I was updating regularly. Also, I really needed to emphasise how long the characters were stuck in that boat. So we had a commercial break.

I think I also installed some minor computer upgrades around this time.
