Brilliant graphical work and a compelling story line, as is expected from you Jules.  I'm actually running a bit late to work this morning because I refused to wait to read this later!  Believe me, it's well worth it!

Yarders I really appreciate your comments...

although I enjoy creating this stuff on a personal level, I couldn't possibly have seen this through without your continued support.

You have my thanks!

The different mouth expressions have really brought these characters to life, what a fantastic idea,
a great build up with the story, breathtaking images as always Jules, and the narrative by the Mon Cal is a nice touch...    (http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/113.gif)

And yes, you did manage to improve on your methods yet again, Jules. The fury of your creativity knows no bounds and each installment is a joy to experience. I love how the facial experiment turned out and the characters seem much more personable now.  On the front page, of course.

Gosh! what a great response from everyone. I'm glad you are all enjoying this... I guess that's the green light for the next chapter then...I'd better load my old copy of  X-Wing Alliance and complete the next mission....

As you well know living in a Galaxy Far Far Away isn't all about flying spaceships and getting into fights, sometimes we have to stop, take a poo, wash our clothes and catch up on our messages. This is an insight into what goes on in between chapters...

Fantastic! Can't wait to see the continuing adventures of Ace and Rancor Squadron.

It's the artistic, polished attention to detail that really makes this web-comic stand out from all the others. It's so brilliantly stylised - keep up the good work!

Agreed! I hate to sound like a broken record but every instalment is a touch better looking than the previous. The blending between panels and the way you insert the characters in between blending there clothing/details into whatever is in the lower picture is one of the coolest details I have ever seen. That is so well done in this episode! I have been scrolling up and down for a while now after reading this awesome action packed chapter. Every panel is simply perfect! I love that first helmet shot of Ace, major reconstruction surgery from the figure, I think you reversed the image in the battle sequence. Also the reflection in their goggles and so many little details you put in there just make me sit here and think man, how cool is it to be able to do work like this! I am in awe of your talent in this format. Thanks so much for creating this part of the universe for all of us to enjoy.
