   And before this, I never knew you could put expression on Darth Vader’s face.

   I wonder how much sense this strip makes to someone who’s never watched Star Wars.

     There are people geeky enough to read comics about Transformers and Batman…who haven’t seen Star Wars?

     That’d be an interesting Venn Diagram.

       I suffer from a Star Wars allergy — I seem to fall into a coma after more than 5 minutes exposure to any of them — and yet somehow I maintain my geek status. Mostly because people won’t stop talking about it. SW falls under pop culture osmosis at this point; I doubt anyone has trouble with getting this one.

       (Hell, most of my Transformers knowledge probably came from Shortpacked. Context usually helps me out there.)

   Imagine James Earl Jones saying Vader’s lines in this strip.

   Now try to stop laughing.

   For a moment I wondered why Darth Vader was conversing with Sydney Yus.

   According to Namco, it you hit Vader, he turns into a scorpion with big lips. At lease Vader could smooch her that way.

   I love that no one thinks it’s absurd that someone would try to return half-chewed gumballs.

   …We must have a lot more people here that have worked retail than I feared.

     You get all kinds of people. I’ve had people call to ask if the warranty on his TV covers water damage instead of, yanno, reading the instruction book?
