Welcome back folks, the fine purveyors of pertinent entertainment at Panel Perfect have returned with a new episode sure to delight your peepers! In honor of the Star Wars sequel trilogy's final chapter, we sat down with the Historic Alex Theatre's House Manager and resident Jedi Master, Colin Perkins! There have been a TON of Star Wars comics over the years, and Colin turned onto some of the craziest stories, such as: - Did you know there Trash compacter monster in the Death Star was trying "baptize Luke with the force?" - Han Solo had a best friend for years named Jackson Rabbit (Who was a giant Green rabbit) - There's an entire novel about the IG-88, the Droid Bounty Hunter from Empire Strikes Back, taking over the Death Star to mess with the Emperor? - Max is astounded that there was a Star Wars newspaper strip that provided a panel a day of galactic stories in the 70's - Alex wonders if any Star Wars will recapture the triumph that was Super Bombad Racing. That's all for this week, folks, but come back next week for our FINAL EPISODE OF 2019 as we send out the decade with a blast! In the Glendale, California area?
