Mara_Jade_AricaReally testing our readership today with both an obscure alternate reality Declan Jabba, along with a little known Expanded Universe cameo of Mara Jade in Return of the Jedi. The seashell bra might be just something Declan sees, or perhaps its the red hair that’s doing it. However, the art for Arica’s bra as seen in on the right could be anything. Speaking of cards, anyone remember Leanne’s first ever illustration of Mara Jade? It was a sketch card for one of our readers, commissioned a year ago.

So, who is Arica? Well, here’s a little info about Mara Jade’s alias.

Yes, I know I said the Sarlacc Pit scene was going to be in today’s strip, but I had to move a few things around in the schedule. I’m also debating over what to do with Blue Milk Special’s future. Trouble is brewing and we may need the help of our readers to survive. We will be back on Thursday (a day early) with another new character (this one from the movie). So the Sarlacc Pit and Boba’s death are being slightly postponed.

Also, are there any astronomers out there, amateur or otherwise, in the Maryland, DC or Northern Virginia area? I borrowed a telescope a while back, but it’s missing some parts! I’ve been unable to do any serious stargazing and I’d love to do it while I have the spare time over the next few weeks. If anyone would like the company of a fellow Star Wars and webcomics geek, please shoot me an email.
