Being watched…
A new voting incentive strip will follow shortly. In the meantime, here is Yoda’s first appearance. See more on Friday and next week!
It seems our YouTube video of our cat, Ban the Somersaulting Cat, is getting a little bit of attention. If you love cats that do unusual things then check out the video and share it with your friends. I doubt it will go viral, but apparently we got noticed recently by a Japanese website. Maybe Ban can be famous?
Awwwww! Yoda’s cuuuuute! X )
Green little voyeur he is yeeeEEEEEEeeeees!!!
Luke learns a valuable lesson already;
No matter how you wiggle and dance, the last drop always ends up in your pants.
Hmmmmm, Make a Yoda carton I must.
Your cat is too cute!
Guess Yoda forgot urinal etiquette after spending 20 years in a swamp. :p
DAWWW!!! X3 I think Biggs is gonna have some competition for my favorite character now.
Although, that’s really, really creepy that he just sat and watched Luke do his business…
So, not “Saw you, I did”, but “WATCHED.” Oh dear me.
In fairness, “My home you are peeing on!”
i think it would be funny if biggs came and said “I am here to save you Luke!”
“Away put your weapon” and shielding his face would’ve also been acceptable in this situation.
Nice!
That line is part of the next strip. We intended to give it added meaning with this strip above. 🙂
You foreshadowing sneaky-pants, you. X D
Yaay Yoda!!!
I was wondering, what is familiar about Dagobah to Luke? Were the urinals at Yavin IV trees as well?
I also was wondering, what did Artoo say? Was this a warning to Luke that he was being watched, or was it an invitation to Yoda that something interesting was going on?
As usual, another thought provoking strip! Apparently. 😉
Of course the familiar comes from his view of the future with his forciness.
Yoda’s pretty awsome looking 🙂
Your cat is 100 times more than ANY of our four (very unfriendly) cats. I WANT ONE!! (Does he come in a plushy?) Oh yeah–and your Yoda rocks.
You’d hope that the website that noticed Ban isn’t Bonsai Kittens >.>
Lol I know what you mean. But that was actually fake. They just pressed kittens against the edges of jars.
Haha cool cat. All my dog can do is high five. And even then, he refuses unless we have a treat for him. Anyway, awesome strip and a great entry for Yoda. Also, can anyone tell me–are stormtroopers former clone troopers? If so, why does Boba Fett have no reaction to them whatsoever?
According to Wookieepedia article on Stormtroopers:
“By the time the Galactic Civil War began in earnest, Jango Fett’s clones were heavily supplanted by clones based on a variety of templates around 9 BBY, followed shortly after by enlisted Humans. Thus, the Fett clones were ironically reduced to a minority status after years of virtually filling the stormtrooper ranks in its entirety. According to a stormtrooper’s entry log in the 501st Journal, none of the Fett clones were ever truly able to come to terms with serving alongside recruits and different clones, all of whom were disdainfully dubbed as the ‘new guys.’ “
Thanks I get it now. 🙂
Yay! Yoda! I sense some Frank Oz jokes in the future. >.> So glad you’re giving him the backwards-talk too.
‘twouldn’t be Yoda if backwards he did not talk. X )
Regarding the Voting strip.
Poor TK8008, I thought he just needed to brown nose his way up the ranks to Grand Admiral, but alas he may never recover from the coffee cup incident.
Astute followers of this obscure saga might remember Yoda being obsessed with seven pisses.
So, six to go then.
I’m scratching my head over this one.
Could be Dandruff.
Either way your strip is “Head and Shoulders” above the rest. ;=
Sorry, resist urge to bad pun do, I could not. };) (Winking Yoda)
No idea either. Animation has driven him mad. Inevitable I suppose.
What is ;= ???

Gah – you guys….
In one Jedi training scene on Dagobah taken from the Marvel Comics adaptation, Yoda throws a small metal bar in the air in front of Luke. Luke then ignites his lightsaber and swings at it before it hits the ground. He misses and the bar falls to the ground. Luke says, “I can’t…too tired.” and Yoda replies, “It would be in seven pieces, were you a Jedi.”
That said – my pun was rubbish.
Finally Yoda and more importantly Yoda speak. Really looking forward to seeing what you do with him.
…and do to him.
Maybe you can answer my (then) 4.5 year old son’s question:
“If Yoda can do lots of jumping and flipping and fighting with Count Dookoo like that and stuff – how come he needs a walking stick?”
LOL! Because Lucas is dumb?
BLASPHEEEEEEMER!
I’m not one of those types of fans that has to make every inconsistency work and find rational explanations for it all. Still, easier for me I guess because I tend to ignore the Prequels altogether. 😉
You’re better off. My son had me watch them dozens of times and I still don’t understand what’s going on.
Does that mean you’re going to ignore the prequels in this strip, when you get to them?
We aren’t planning to cover the prequels in the sort of chronological fashion we have done with the OT. We might parody a handful of scenes, if anything. I just feel that most of the humor will be largely negative as I’m not a fan of the PT. I don’t mind taking shots at stuff, but I want BMS to be more than just picking things apart. 🙂
