Top 5 Most Annoying Star Wars Characters

We know Star Wars is all kinds of awesome, but still, there are those certain characters who drive us insane. Here are my top 5:

1. Salacious B. Crumb

I’m not sure if there are enough words to describe my discontent with Salacious. He’s as pointless as he is annoying and the sound of his cackling is like fingernails on a chalkboard.

2. C3PO

Theepio does have his lovable moments for sure, but usually he’s interrupting, complaining or babbling on about something. He’s like that annoying friend who won’t shut up, but every once in a while saves the day.

5 Reasons You Should Get Into Comics

IMG_4250

Do you enjoy the comic book culture but hesitate to delve completely into the world of comics?

With the release of the Marvel Star Wars #1 it’s a great time to jump right in. If you’re still on the fence, consider these 5 reasons comics should be a staple for any geek.

(1) They’re Fun

Comics are a lot of fun. They’re fun to buy, fun to collect, and fun to read. Life can be hard and comics are a great escape into a world of whimsy and adventure.

(2) Fantastic Art

Comics feature some of today’s best artists. As you collect more comics you’ll learn to recognize each artist’s particular style and come to appreciate the vast array of artistic talent out there.

(3) New Stories

The Marvel Star Wars stories are canon, so enjoy these new adventures with confidence that they actually happened in the Star Wars universe. But whether the series you’re reading is canon or not, you’re getting new stories with your favorite characters. Pretty cool.

(4) They’re Cheap

Most basic comics run for about $4-$5. That’s cheaper than going to a movie and you’ll have something tangible to go back to in the future. It’s also cheaper than a lot of other things geeks like to collect, such as action figures, games and books etc.

(5) Peer Pressure

All the cool kids are doing it. Don’t be left behind. Go out and get Marvel Star Wars #1 and while you’re at it, issue #2 comes out tomorrow, so grab them both!
