STAR WARS (1977)

I know Anakin's desilusions of grandiosity are the talk of the town, but something something Padmé dehumanization of herself as a result of so much survivor trauma and so many close death calls. She's the senator with the highest murder attempts on her, she gets assesination attempts weekly and brushes them off, and she keeps chasing for justice to the point of collition, she sees people dying around her all the time but she keeps on living and living, at some point she's flirting with death as much as Anakin does in the battlefield. And something something, Anakin, ironically, in his extreme trauma and fear of death taking the people he loves, being the only one to say "You're a person, and your name is Padmé, not queen nor senator, and you're as fragile as any other live being" Something something the irony that person that most adored her being also the one who saw her as a person Something something Anakin commiting atrocities not for a goddess, no for a politician no for royalty, for a person. Something something how contrarian it is, that Anakin sees himself as a weapon, and Padmé's extreme guilt becoming what seems like superiority.

And particularly here in this comic something something how easily Anakin can walk through that storm Padme has created, how easily he can enter into her headspace and she doesn't flinch, doesn't blink, she isn't even surprised because she expects him and he's the only one that knows and can reach her like this, they're just having a conversation, something something.

Something.

I swear this was the end of me, so idc if i'm rambling, this comic kept me up awake for more than one day, because the power would go out every single time i sat to work on it, damnit

i need to sleep asap, and eat, eating first probably

this story is already over. nothing can be done to change it.

happy re-release and 20th anniversary revenge of the sith!!

han solo? best damn braider in the galaxy. he once braided an entire wookie in twelve [improper units of measurement]

After andor the vibes in this meeting must have been WRECHED. The ISB collapsed, death star plans leaked, jedda destroyed in an embarrassing debacle, scarif raided all in one week and tarkin calls a staff meeting at 6am on a Tuesday. Does he talk about the security vulnerability the death star has been exposed to? No. He blusters about how everything is fine because his station is so cool and awesome and nothing bad will ever happen to it. Then some guy calls him wrong and an idiot to his face and tells his spooky wizard boss his religion is bullshit, and is instantly choked for it. No one is even shocked or offended by this, hell half of them are into it

I'm fine about this parallel

always alone, even in a crowd
