Not every comic book story is serious.

To commemorate the 20th Anniversary of Star Wars, Entity Comics published a parody issue in June 1997. Fart Wars featured Entity Comics' characters the Skunk and Nira as they get caught up in an adventure against Roll Vader and his devastating space station that has the ability to fire off a large amount of toilet paper all at once, literally wiping out an entire planet!

With "guest stars" such as ET, Indiana Jones, Twiki, the Savage Dragon, and other memorable science fiction characters, writer/artist Bill Maus has a loads of fun with the story!

The back-up feature "Star Snores" features the Adolescent Radioactive Blackbelt Hamsters in their own Star Wars adventure aboard the Bad Breath Star, quote old G.I. JOE cartoons, and fly the Milleneum Tweety Bird across the galaxy.

There were three different covers for this issue, each with a different subtitle: Fart Wars, Empire Attacks Back, and Return of the One-Eye. While I don't have the second issue, I was lucky enough to get an autograph from publisher/creator Don Chin on these two comics.

A few days ago, in a tiny province of Montana that might as well be in a galaxy really far away, the fabulous Fillbach Bros. created a parody of truly epic proportions — the title says it all. And as with any good-natured parody, the name barely scratches the surface. In 1999, Sirius Entertainment published Toon Warz 1/8: The Fandom Menace, which spoofed Episode I. The Fillbach Bros. not only parodied the movie, but also poked a little fun at George Lucas’s entire famed universe. Four different Mark Crilley covers available, only one is shown below.
