The very first time we saw a lightsaber, Luke was waving it around like it was the easiest thing in the world, or almost. The difficulty shown by Kenobi and Vader later in the film was chalked up to the fact that they were both old men by this point. Then again, the blade was flat in that first scene, too, so who can say?Daviticushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09186355287343051341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-11511989556929270992020-11-11T19:17:31.702-05:002020-11-11T19:17:31.702-05:00@Cary: Well, they would, given they were written a...@Cary: Well, they <i>would</i>, given they were written at about the same time by the same composer.Bob Greenwadehttp://lulu.com/spotlight/bobgreenwadenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-6943696731761014802020-11-11T16:21:06.096-05:002020-11-11T16:21:06.096-05:00P.S. @ AirDave and Davejonz: how about Supergirl ...P.S. @ AirDave and Davejonz: how about Supergirl and Princess Leia having to find a cure for the Kandorian Plague?Carycomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16657443977195909129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-86142213276376976572020-11-11T16:18:59.619-05:002020-11-11T16:18:59.619-05:00EXCELLENT! :-D

I especially like how Supes' face seems to be reflecting a bit of the red light from Vader's lightsaber. I'm not sure whether it's something you did deliberately, but it's cool nonetheless.<br /><br />Among Star Wars characters, I'd love to see Ahsoka Tano, what with her highly-rumored coming appearance on <i>The Mandalorian</i> (Charlie Schneider of Emergency Awesome predicts episode 5). Given Ahsoka's talent for seeing the future, maybe she could be teamed up with Dream Girl.<br /><br />For "science collectors" (as Horsefeathers mentioned) I'd suggest Brainiac vs. the Borg.Bob Greenwadehttp://lulu.com/spotlight/bobgreenwadenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-62212594553867899972020-11-11T07:41:07.437-05:002020-11-11T07:41:07.437-05:00Great match-up.
