Let us not forget that he was on Freakazoid as Armondo Gutierrez (although he was pretty much playing Kahn… he actually says "He tasks me.").

I personally don't care for the new trilogy and it's subsequent animated queeffs, but I also don't mind them, mainly because it makes all Jedi appear as total assholes, which I can use to tell myself that it's a totally different series, and because, as Joel says, they open the doors in nerdy children's minds to more and more scifi. They watch Star Wars, then Star Trek to see the difference. Then they hear of Stargate or Firefly, and bam, the seed has sprouted and it's filling their young minds with BSG and John Carpenter's "the Thing".
People around me always complain when "their" series are dumbed down for the newer generation, but as far as I see it, it ensures the survival of the series and generates inspiration for the genre's future.

Far from it be that i might criticise, but we are seeing an unusual drop off in joshiac mortality. Is the radiantly reflective pated chaparoo ill? Or you consider it an excessively used line? or just haven't done any of late?

My favorite part of the comic is the kid in the sweater vest and the khakis.

My parents showed me the original trilogy on VHS when I was like 5 years old (I'm 21 now). Like many others my age, I found a personal love for Star Wars with the 1997 re-release and Power of the Force toys. I'm ambivalent toward the prequels, and I haven't watched a minute of Clone Wars. I think the love for it amongst my generation and the young'ins has to do with the fact that there hasn't been a classic sci-fi story that people my age and younger can call our own. We either appropriate the increasingly tainted Star Wars, or we sneakily watch The Matrix (*shudder*) when our parents didn't notice. There's nothing in between, unless someone wants to point out one I missed.

I felt old reading the comic, I would have done the same, General Grievous vs Bobba Fett…that's preposterous. I'm only 28, I shouldn't feel so old. Also, Lucas killed Star Wars for me, I haven't been able to watch ANY of the movies since Episode III.

That's what Bioware is for.

C'mon, Joel, don't be a hater. The Clone Wars cartoon really does emphasize good storytelling and characterization, for the most part. i think the guy playing Anakin in the cartoon does it better than Hayden Christensen, but that role kick started his career, so good for him.

Joel, thank you for the wildly appropriate sketch in my Artist Edition. Also, for letting you comically maim and molest them as you do, you have the best friends in the world.
