Take care!
Today’s strip was actually written by the comedian Kevin Conn, a dear friend of Leanne and myself. He suggested it well over a year ago for another project which fell on the backburner. I loved the idea so much he agreed to let me illustrate it. Along with stand up, Kevin is the comic behind a variety of comedy projects in print and visual form. His Unemployed Skeletor creation became something of a sensation a few years back and has countless misadventures available on YouTube. Check out Kevin’s work if you get a chance and drop him a friendly comment or email. Unemployed Skeletor even made a guest appearance in Blue Milk Special way back at the beginning of the first movie parody. So, in a way, you could say Kevin’s been with us from the beginning! 🙂
With 2-1B’s appearance in today’s strip it seemed appropriate to finally announce T. Gatto’s latest Blue Milk Special Milk Cartons. T. Gatto sent them to me about a month ago so it has only been a matter of finding a good time for them to make their debut in the blog. Thanks again, T. for all your stunning work! Smoking Jawa (Hoth version), Wampa (with happy and angry front and reverse sides) and 2-1B will make a great addition to the growing collection.
Gatto’s extensive Blue Milk Carton work can be found on our Downloads page. You will find an amazing collection of non-Star Wars paper milk cartons and a paper landspeeder at his FaceBook page.
I am so flattered! 🙂 I’m so glad you enjoyed my random joke! Seriously for years, THAT is what I thought in my odd lil head while watching that scene! 😀 Love and miss ya both! Thank you both so much! LOL! I like exclamation marks!
That was a good call, Mr Conn. That felt like a deleted scene straight out of the movie. Well done to all of yuz.
Skeletor; get a job and quit bilking the taxpayers! 😉
McAwesome Pants; here is your Hoth Jawa as requested (better late then never). 🙂
wayne hom; I now have 2 Dalek cartons posted to my facebook page (1 designed by BMSer chwbcc), link above. 🙂
Reference the strip; maybe 2-1B could make friends with the Wampa, after he puts its arm back on, they both seem lonely. 🙁
Aw. The Wampa and 2-1B bonding over their losses. That’s so sweet. X )
Hah! Making a wampa carton with only one arm might be amusing. Excellent work, as usual, Mr. T!
Awesome, nice work Kevin and the Hannahs!
Is it too late to add 2-1B to favorite character list? 🙂
Excellent comic. I always though that 2-1B was a cool droid design, glad to see him featured here.
Does anyone remember the 2 1b star wars insider articles… He kept bragging about saving the universe for repairing Luke … If he had’nt the sith would still rule… Its true from a certain point of view He did save the universe…
Has anyone else noticed 2-1B’s old fashioned microphone snout? (‘skeleton mike’) Hey – hang on a minute!
I always suspected Luke of being a robosexual.
@Xader…
He does get along FABULOUSLY with R2.
Would that be anything like the Tasha/Data relationship? Found special settings? To quote Buzz Lightyear “I have a Spanish mode?” ….
Does he have something like bioport for robosex? O_o
May be that medical droid wanted to say “T-forty-threes”? So, I know now why it will take “*quite* a while” to evacuate them. 😀
