Let's look at this logically. In Star Wars, they make a clone army using ONE guy as the template. All of the clones therefore look and sound identical. They all wear identical armour (apart from a rank insignia or specialist uniforms, presumably). Wouldn't this COMPLETELY FAIL TO WORK? Your entire army would just collapse in confusion, surely?

The other possibility is that each clone would be allowed to choose a name... but if they're all based on the same guy, wouldn't they all think alike and choose the same one? It amuses me to think of all those hi-tech clones in a science fiction universe being given very ordinary names like Harry, Barry or Larry. Or even Gary. I also like the way Barry's carrying a suitcase on this page. That was a random addition, but it looks really good.
