So many comments, so little space. First up, I actually came up with two alternatives for this page, the second of which I present for your entertainment here. Hey look, commentary AND extra features. This is like, totally watching a DVD, man.

The alternative joke is, of course, making fun of the line in Return of the Jedi where Han glances for ten seconds at a military bunker and remarks casually that he and Chewie have "gotten into places much more heavily guarded than this". I think I actually prefer the alternative, but Yoda acting here in a totally un-Yoda like manner is something I found quite interesting. I might see if there's potential to explore this in future stories.

The important thing to note in panel 3 is that they're pushing a trolley full of laundry, rather than mangled body parts. Yes, I thought that wasn't clear for about 30% of you. I saw a model once with a clothes line decorated with minifig body parts like that and it seemed to work, so I've shamelessly stolen the idea. This is all in reference to Luke and Han dressing up as stormtroopers in Episode 4. Han's final line is from the occasional genius that is Spaceballs the movie.
