Coop Skywalker on the attack. #175

It looks like Hans Solo and the Wookie are going to need some help to defeat Darth Vader.

Here comes Coop and his little lazer eyed alien minions. Take that Darth Vader!

Battle in the Hangar Bay #174

Down in the hangar bay of the Star Ship Enterprise, Darth Vader is unmasked and Hans Solo springs into action against his old foe.

Tomorrow..... a new surprise for Darth Vader.

Facing the facts, nothing but the facts #173

Being a master Jedi has it's advantages, such as making your self and other things seem like something they aren't.

Tomorrow Hans Solo and the Wookie takes on Darth Vader.

Where is the princess? #172

So, the "Dark Side" also known as Disneyland wants Princess Della to join the other princesses at Disneyland?

You didn't know George Lucas owns a Space going yacht?  In my world he does, at least it looks like that to the average eye.  In reality his yacht is something far more evil.  

Twas the day after Christmas

Today in England they celebrate Boxing day, where you box up your old stuff and donate it to the "poor".  Here in America we also have a boxing day but we use the boxes to return the junk we got for Christmas that we don't want, for junk we do want.

Merry ho ho. #171

MERRY CHRISTMAS from us and our rat's in outer space.

Houston we have a bit of a problem..#170

It looks like Santa didn't make it all the way back to the North Pole.

Santa's elves caper #169

We are finally getting rid of those evil little Santa's elves.

R2D2 HUMOR #168

We are going to see the new Star Wars movie today so today I am taking a little break from the long running story line and just do a couple one panel gags.

The greeting party #167

Several months ago I replaced Hans Solo with Peter Pan because I felt Harrison Ford, who is even older than me, was way too old to play the part of Hans Solo.  Because of the new Star Wars movie, I have unretired the old guy and he will now take over control of his space craft the Millennium Falcon.
It seems Hans has some issues with his old boss George Lucas.  I wonder how many issues Hans Solo would have with George Lucas if he knew George was also Darth Vader?

This kind of puts Captain Brad Harrah in the middle of an old spat between Hans and George.  Will this derail our story here...not to worry it was derailed back when we replaced Peter Pan with Terry Thomas..hang on things are just getting juicy.

George Lucas' s Sleigh Ride #166

Meanwhile back with Santa Klaus and George Lucas

 they are approaching the Star Ship Enterprise,

escorted by the Millennium Falcon, a Viper and a X-Wing fighter.

 I can just imagine what is going through George Luca's brain when he sees the Millennium Falcon and the X-Wing now attached to the Star Ship Enterprise.

Tomorrow Santa and George Lucas will be greeted by  Captain Brad Harrah on the flight deck of the Enterprise along with some unexpected guests.

Raymond's vision # 165

After drinking some spicy green tea, the Enterprise's resident Jedi-Shaman, Raymond, had a vision of the up coming visit from Santa Klaus.

Hopefully Santa Klaus can control those pesky little elves better than the crew of the Enterprise.

Santa's escort service #164

The mother and grandmother ( Kree and LuAnn) of Princess Della are about to get the assignment of flying escort service for Santa Klaus as he heads towards the Star Ship Enterprise.  

                             Off Kree and LuAnn go on their mission.

We still do not have any clue why Darth Vader/ George Lucas would need to get on board the Enterprise but I have a feeling the reason will soon become apparent.

Hijacked Santa's Sleigh #163

off the hijacked Santa's sleigh go on the journey to the Enterprise.  The question remains why does Darth Vader feel a need to get to the Star Ship Enterprise to confront the new commander, Captain Brad Harrah?

George Lucas is really Darth Vader?  Well, that really explains a lot.

Santa meets Darth Vader # 162

Two tyrants in one sleigh.  

How will Darth Vader get on board the Enterprise?  

No blog post

It is Sunday and for me it is my Sabeth.  I am no longer posting cartoons on Sunday.  I will be back tomorrow with a new cartoon page.

Santa's number one Naughty boy #161

Meanwhile back at Santa's sleigh, Santa Klaus is about to be boarded by a very unwelcome guest.

Please note that I gave my wife Ruth, top billing on today's cartoon as it was her idea of bringing Darth Vader back into the story line

What do you suppose Darth Vader would want for Christmas?

BTW did you notice that the Cancerous rat pirates decorated their pirate ship with festive lights for the holidays.  How adorable.

Also, please note the solar winds blowing Santa's cap and beard.

Just a reminder that Donald Trump's pirate ship is powered by solar winds and today they are blowing at warp speed.

Randolf & Bing ! #160

A couple of years ago, I created a rabbit character I called Bing !  He was so happy all the time it was almost obnoxious to the other characters.  Today, I have taken the liberty of transforming BING ! into a jackalope and he and Randolf are what pulls Santa Klaus's sleigh through the cold night air of winter. 
 Today, we rejoin them and Santa on their major treck to the the Star Ship Enterprise.  Also, I have renamed Santa Claus to Santa Klaus because my Santa is not the same jolly fat soul of the Claus guy.

I guess I am the big guy Santa mentioned.  My real motive for using Jackalopes is for size differences and besides I like to draw Jackalopes more than reindeer.  No offense Rudolf.

They are now in control! #159

Things are starting to look dire for the crew of the Enterprise.  Those evil Santa's elves who like to sit around on shelves have started to take control of the Star Ship Enterprise.

It looks like Dave the ship's chief Engineer has already got things wrapped up.

Those Evil Elves on the shelf. #158

They seem so cute and harmless but they are pure evil.

Today we join our Viper pilots, Fred, Dan and Arkady down at Lewie's bar in the basement of the Star Ship Enterprise.

To battle stations we have been invaded by evil beings! 

The hard part will be to find them, it is a big space craft. 

Hi Ho Randolf! #157

Santa is bound and determined to get those wayward elves back even if it means going those light years to the Star Ship Enterprise.

Santa's AWOL elves #156

Santa gets the word that the three AWOL elves are on the USS Enterprise in the outer space and is determined to retrieve them before Christmas.  All of Santa's elves are equiped with a GPS, location chip. They can run but can not hide.

Introducing Randolf the red nose Jackalope.  Being that our Santa is a rat reindeer would be too large to fit into this comic strip so for this story  Santa uses 8 Jackalope to pull his sleigh.   When it is foggy he puts Randolf at the head of the other Jackalopes so that they don't run into low flying air craft.
 For those who are not familier with the native American Jackalope, they are a mixed breed Western jack rabbit and Antelope.  As a matter of fact they were first bred up in Wyoming by my great uncle Hugh Main back in 1895 as a source of cheap meat. 

Rat elves on a shelf #155

Three elves on the loose on the USS Enterprise galley deck.  This should make the cook happy.

The Soup Nazi was a character on the

 Jerry Seinfeld show.

It looks like someone else is not happy about three of his elves going AWOL.

New visitors to the Enterprise #154

It looks like Doctor Livingston and Doctor Who a Paradox, are going to join together and explore the universe in the Tardis.

 You have heard of the Elf on the shelf..... How about a rat elf on the Enterprise?

I am sure the soup nazi or the ship's cook will have no problem with that big blue box on his galley deck.
