Star Wars: Return of Tag and Bink

Star Wars: Return of Tag and Bink - Special Edition #1; written by Kevin Rubio, art by Lucas Marangon

Not everything in the Star Wars galaxy is beset by the oft-times dour battle between the Rebel Alliance and the Imperial Forces. There can be bright in the dark with cracks of funny and hijinks.

Lock up your daughters and hide the Jawas, faithful readers, because Tag and Bink are BACK!

Yea, though one might be hard-pressed to develop a sequel to the popular Tag & Bink Are Dead, fan-favorite writer Kevin Rubio and Star Wars stalwart Lucas Marangon have risen to the occasion!

And what an occasion it is. Fans jonesing for more side-splitting Star Wars shenanigans will thrill to the new misadventures of this hapless pair, members of the Rebel Alliance, who have somehow stumbled past the worst Imperial perils with their limbs intact.

In The Return of Tag & Bink-Special Edition, the duo set out to rescue a certain smuggler trapped in carbonite - with the help of Lando Calrissian! One thing leads to another, and they manage to subdue the deadliest bounty hunter in the galaxy on their way to infiltrating the Hutt palace.

Star Wars fans know what comes next, and there will be guest appearances of favorite characters on the way to the Sarlacc pit, the Death Star, and Endor! This issue will conquer the world!


The return of Tag and Bink is not unlike that of bones rising up again from the dead of night and of freshly made graves.

DC continues to prove that the dead aren't dead when you can still use their names as Blue Beetle make a return. Of sorts.

Boom! Studios continues charging out with more animated corpses as Zombie Tales: The Dead shoots another load with the walking undead.

From Alias Entertainment, Twinblades: The Killing Words. Basic plot: "Two Viking sisters fight a warlord with a weapon from another planet." Two Viking sister twins that is. And there isn't a skerrick of The Parent Trap at all within the feel of the story. Hayley Mills fans will continue to only have the Lindsay Lohan remake then.

The Spider-Man & Arana Special from Marvel Comics puts the little guyver girl up with the now seven-limbed webslinger for questions about the ongoing war between the Wasp and the Spider-Clan. People watching from the graveyard can be rest assured that there is hope she might not make it.
