Drab-Os, the least exciting dried breakfast cereal in the galaxy.

Oh, ja, long time ago now, and not anywhere near here, neither.

Donning an enormous disco medallion, it became evident that Vader was facing a midichlorian-life crisis.

Obviously they can’t sue anybody in Sweden. They are a neutral country. (I learned that in law school before I flunked out.)
But they can sue Good Show Sir and Tom Noir. Disney is now readying a clone army of lawyers.

The publisher is “Regal.” You’re making me use my Swedish Gøøgling skillz on that one.

The fyord is strong in this one…

‘No, I am your father. Believe me, where else do you think you got those eyes.’

Episode VIII is taking Kylo Ren in some unexpected new directions.

@Tag Wizard: Mycket gott skick!

Ja! The Swedish versiøn øf “Star Wars”, featuring the evil galactic villain Dørth Væderson.
“Løke, [*PUFF*… *WHEEZE*] I am yøur father. But øf cøurse we can talk this øver.”
“Yes, nø need tø fight øver this. Let’s discuss it øver søme cøffee and meatballs.”
“Ja!”

I had no idea that Vader decided to give the “cartoon googly eyes” look a try. Although I suspect the gilding was added by a subordinate as a prank. ADMIRAL . . .
Yeah, someone’s getting Force-choked for that little prank.

Real Swedish version: I am your varter. We have sex now ja?

Bender goes over to the Dark Side

There’s a door in my nose

Mickey Rooney from Breakfast at Tiffanys with coke-bottle specs is Dark Helmet.

I hope that the book is as entertaining as the Parliamentary debates!

Mystery solved – ’twas Vader stole the Wookiee’s medal!
January 19th, 2016 at 1:09 am
Is that a Life Day orange robe?

“Luke, I am NOT your father. I’m his cousin Dork Vader.”
January 19th, 2016 at 7:51 pm
@A.R.Yngve: “Luke, I’m your father’s mannequin.”
January 19th, 2016 at 11:38 pm
‘Vader, you are not my father.’
o_O
‘I searched my feelings, and…no. No, you’re not. Not even close.’
O_o
‘Can I go now? It’s so awfully cold out here.’

And of course Dork Vader doesn’t have a Death Star. This is more his style of superweapon:

Before Darth Vader had his eyes fixed, he just couldn’t instill fear in his subordinates. And the medal he found in his breakfast-cereal box didn’t help much.

Drabos, home of the Drab People. Sworn enemies of the Fab People of Fabos.

@A.R.Yngve(25): That sounds disturbingly like an unmade Dr Who script from the 80s…
“Come on Peri, their doomsday weapon’s held over there in Section 28!”
January 22nd, 2016 at 4:59 am
@Perry Anderson: there would be the dreaded couples-in-jumpsuits if that were the case. ‘Drabos’ is more like one of those unerringly-descriptive Terry Nation planet-names, like Mechanus, Marinus, Aridius, Desperus…
January 22nd, 2016 at 8:15 am
…and the dreaded Planet Lawyerus, hell-pit of the galaxy.

“Come of it C-3PO you wouldn’t fool a blind Womp rat with that cheap dime store Vader mask.”
“But Master Luke, Yoda says it make me look so virile.”

Disgusting looking amateur cover.
I saw that book in a library once. I’d be damned if the author managed to even sell 50 copies of that book with a cover like that. MY GOD!!

This is the “Before” picture in an advertising campaign.
“BEFORE I joined the Empire, they laughed behind my back… NOW no one is laughing!”

Not that the cover art for Möller’s other literary endeavours was better…
