| The Sci-Fi Comic Strip This week: accurate Stormbloopers. This week's Sev Wars comic strip re-examines a peculiar statement from Mouldy- Bun Baloney about how accurate Stormbloopers are. Evidence from the rest of the 3 movies shows they couldn't even hit the broad side of a Sandcrawler!?

| They're improving. At least they're all hitting the broad side of the SAME barn now. scifi1801a
| Its far more likely that lightening struck the sevcrawler and its crew. Several dozen times. GreyWolf
| Use your eyes, Moldey! Use your EYES! Kimpire
| You're looking at the wrong sandcrawler. The one THEY shot at escaped. MindMelda
| One thing stronger than the Farce, poor depth perception. Johnathan McClure
| You mean there's a mutant strain?! Bill Harris
| Yeah, everyone else would have just shot the jawas. Mark Walton
| If this is the quality of your predictive powers, you can go to Alderaan on your own. John Larabee
| Are you teasing me about the toilet seat thing again...? Stacy Duke
| Not necessarily - it also could have been a blind Droid with severe wrist malfunction. Shlamko
| For once, the sunglasses come handy! JoeRu
| I sense a great disturbance in your sanity... King Orthur
| Is the force weak with you or something!!! Michael Morrison
| It's not a barn ... but it is broad enough ... Griffin
| Your right. That kind of accurate shot can only come from a Stormbloopers. Griffin
| It's a basic truth. Republic credits aren't fine, white men can't jump, and Stormbloopers can't aim. archer sagitarius
| that, or the jawas have been eating mexican food Czarna
| As long as the target isn't integral to the plot Gobi Toby
| Uh, I think you're getting the words "accurate" and "precise" mixed up again. Billy Arbco
| You must have been out here in the desert for a REALLY long time Mouldy Bun! Billy Arbco
| You must mean some OTHER kind of Stormblooper then the ones I know.. Billy Arbco
| How long has it been since you actually SAW a Stormblooper in action Mouldy Bun? 009
| They were inside the sandcrawler 009
| If they were standing 2 feet away, yeah Wyv
| Looks like Blabba the Gutt broke wind inside that thing. Space Katet
| Even See Creepio can shoot this accurately. Eric
| Actually, the Jawas did this trying to repair a blaster. Mark
| Your standard of accuracy is pretty low. Mark
| How well do they do against the living? Darkskull
| Oh Yay. I'm stuck with an Old, Blind and Deaf Jedi. I am so Dead. FieldGeneral
| Obviously your Jedi Training didn't include basic marksmanship with a blaster Talythia
| They must have remembered to put their glasses on this time Evan Lawbaugh
| "Yeah, no seriously Ben, who do you REALLY think did it?" freilicher
| Says the guy who trains with his eyes covered!. Mystic Orangutan
| Oh, I get it. That's a joke, right? Jeremy Merritt
| Yeah, and womp rats might fly out of my butt. Jason Hedgecock
| Do you even listen to what you're saying? Rusty
| I thought stormbloopers couldn't see through the helmets! Ian Austin
| Please. Their aim is as bad as their armour. MindMelda
| If they're hiring the visually impaired, how evil can they be? Glorendil
| I looked at the script. Don't worry, it won't happen again. Murdoc
| Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match when you have good sarcasm at your side. Nodrog
| The sarcasm is strong in this one. Tomi "BGT" Mäntylä
| Yeah. The sandpeople would have hit the tracks as intended. Josh Chapman
| Yeah maybe when the target is forty feet high! Kage
| Don't tell me, These were supposed to be warning shots. Goldstripe
| Uh-huh, isn't it time for your medication? Ken (Buster) C.
| Well I guess we were wrong, They can hit the broadside of a Barn! Sevanonymous
| I'm sorry, we *are* talking about Stormbloopers, aren't we? Gobi Toby
| I guess a couple of them COULD have gotten a lucky hit or two... Gobi Toby
| Hey, everybody gets to hit something at least once. Dr Satan
| You're always blaming the stormbloopers... Dr Satan
| Accurate? They couldn't hit Jaba with a slug-seeking missile. Dr Satan
| They were probably trying to fly around it Dr Satan
| They're about as accurate as your comments Dr Satan
| Yes, you have to be accurate to hit a 20 foot skip Dial "M" for Maul
| I beg to differ. When the shooting started, these Jawa probably died of boredom. FieldGeneral
| If this is accuracy, then my 'elegant' lightsaber is really a thermal detonater. FieldGeneral
| Gosh I know. Every one of their shots hit SOMETHING. FieldGeneral
| Wow, mouldy bun, I never knew you had a sarcastic streak in you. FieldGeneral
| Um, actually, I saw it all. One trooper got his thumb stuck in the trigger guard. FieldGeneral
| Yeah. Too bad they were trying to take them alive for questioning. FieldGeneral
| Know what mouldy? All this is a result of their squad leader saying "Fire a shot across their bow." FieldGeneral
| Ironic isn't it, that they were shooting to miss? FieldGeneral
| I think, that as part of your Redeye training, you should next construct a pair of eyeglasses. Londo Moelarry
| I sure that's true. From a certain point of view. Dr Satan
| Accurate? They probably crashed into it by mistake. Dr Satan
| Yes, it's amazing what you can do at point blank range. Jamal Radar
| I guess they should start fitting prescription helmets. Emily
| Really? I'd hate to see it when they miss. Andy R.
| Why can't they shoot accurately on screen? Nails
| I'd hate to see what inaccurate shooting looks like. Robin
| Relax. They're bound to lose their coordination by "Rerun of the Redeye" Phiz
| Stormbloopers did this? How? With a hole puncher? Harley Cat
| Puleeze..it took a whole platoon to kill four Jawas Unimatrix Zero
| You would be that accurate too if you shot point blank EnabranMek
| And I'm supposed to get a torpedo down a two meter hole at the end of this movie?! TotallyMAD
| Mouldy-bun, you lived in different times. TotallyMAD
| I have a feeling that history will alter from this point on... Naraht
| Yeah, it almost looks haphazard Yorgi
| Yeah, it's a good thing the Sandcrawler drove between us and them , wasn't it? neilinoz
| So.... they were trying to kill themselves? John Lang
| There's a first time for everything Dark Knight
| Then explain why we could escape thousands without a scratch?? DJTreky
| And you think Qui-Gon trained you well? DJTreky
| And you expect me to believe Artoo actually managed to survive this long? DJTreky
| Compared to the Battle-Droids of your day? tuvoky_wo
| About as accurate as a stray dog leading a blind man Joanna
| Of course. They were aiming the other way. Allan
| Ease up on the mushrooms, old man. Allan
| This "Farce" thing must be hallucinogenic. Allan
| You want respect with a comment like that? Williamson
| This thing is bigger than the broad side of a barn, then. Allan
| Someone certainly didn't like their bumper-sticker. Roget
| They must have been aiming at the treads... Allan
| One tiny Sandcrawler in a huge desert. Hidron98
| Okay grampa, let's go back to the house so you can take your medication... Hidron98
| Okay, I was beleiving everything you said, until now. Londo Moelarry
| Yeah, right. I bet they couldn't even beat a bunch of fuzzy little bears armed with bows and arrows. Tim N.
| Only when they're not trying. MindMelda
| Senility is stronger than farce, apparently. Ensign Pikachu
| They say 1,000 Stormbloopers, given an infinite amount of time, will eventually hit all 4 jawas. Johnathan McClure
| Change your name to Mouldy Brain! Diamond
| And which stormblooper would that be? John Tontodonati
| Only blind idiots can shoot more accurately. Potswilly
| Accurate!? They had to destroy that whole Sandcrawler, just to kill a few Jawas! David D
| Hard not to miss shooting from the inside. David D
| They were aiming for the wheels Nan
| Honestly, count the holes then count the bodies. Nan
| Are you kidding? They couldn't shoot this accurately if you walked right up to them. bonemar
| Which movie are you in? Nan
| Hmm, they must have have removed their buckets. lymbojimbo
| If accurately means hitting everthing but what they were aiming for, then i agree. Vixy
| Blast everything within a five mile radius and you're bound to hit something. essayg
| What were they really aiming at? ebonsun
| Great eyes you've got... Jedi, my butt! Ryan-19
| Yeah, and i'll bet over half of them missed! ebonsun
| Good against extras, maybe. But good on lead actors? I don't think so! Bryan
| Yeah, the next time I get attacked by a barn, I'll know who to call. Giri Ninjo
| Well it is as big as a barn isn't it Dr.Z
| wow, hit the brood side of a moble barn.....impressive Shane Vassar
| Yeah, they aimed to miss. Jason Daily
| Whatchoo talkin' 'bout Obi Wan?! Briareos
| So they were only trying to fire warning shots? Nim
| Say that again? I thought you said 'stormbloopers' and 'accurately in the same sentence. Haathi
| How can you be so wise... and yet so stupid?
| They can't miss all the time Michael Lewis
| It only took 500 shots to do what a rock and a slingshot could have done. TEFII
| You mean only they can shoot at the broad side of a supply crawler and still miss half the time. Todd Harris
| Sure the things twice the size of any barn. Dan
| Right...I sure couldn't have hit that giant sandcrawler from three feet away... Dial "M" for Maul
| This being a sandcrawler, it was a REALLY SLOW drive-by shooting. Paul V
| It's easy when you shooting from inside the sandcrawler. the crazy evil dude
| So which Stormbloopers have you met? the crazy evil dude
| So they were aiming for what? Moddy
| Yes? Then who was it that shot at this sandcrawler? BC
| What do they practice on, Death Stars? Stan
| It must have taken them hours. Or they must have had their eyes closed. Daniv
| 4 casualties and a shredded backdrop. You could be right. Standback
| Yeah, especially considering they were aiming at that flock of geese. Leon van Steensel
| Maybe they shot to miss, and accidentally hit it. Dial "M" for Maul
| These Jawas weren't shot. They laughed themselves to death. Hanover Fisk
| I sense a great sarcasm in the Force. TC
| Ah, the famous Redeye sarcasm finally makes an appearance FieldGeneral
| You know, I suddenly have a feeling that this "Redeye wisdom" talk is a bit overplayed. Glorendil
| Stormbloopers shooting accurately??? It's the end of the world! carol
| Oh for Pete's sake they were headed to the junk yard at a whopping 2 miles an hour, how hard could it have been? Yorgi
| I think they used up their accuracy quota for the rest of the movie Yorgi
| When you fire that many shots, you have to hit something jak
| Never mind the 9,248 rounds that went wide. Wyv
| You mean they took off their helmets? The Great Wizzard

| But they weren't even AIMING for the transport! Jonathan
| You've got cataracts, don't you? Dano Langevin
| Shoot? They were cleaning their guns! Caroline Meier
| Really? Well they missed a few spots. Dial "M" for Maul
| That pretty much rules them out I'd say. Dial "M" for Maul
| I think you've been out in this hot sun for a bit too long. Dial "M" for Maul
| I think you're mistaking stormblooper fire for a meteorite shower T-1000
| What are you talking about. Some friends and I are were pelting stones at that thing earlier today. joerg
| Yeah, they shot a hole in the ozone layer and the UV light killed the Jawas. Very clever! joerg
| I think they aimed for a brown robe. Joseph
| Aw, those guys couldn't hit the broad side of a sandcrawler... Oh. Hmm. craig =8^}
| whew, aunt beru and uncle owen will be fine, then. Narc O'Leptic
| In other words, if we're not as big as a house or as slow-moving we don't have to worry! Corsair

| People are occasionally blessed with luck. The Great Wizzard
| "Stormbloopers"? Cheap plastic armor, dark black sunglasses, unable to hit the broad side of a Star Destroyer from a 10cm distance. We're talking about the same guys? Just checking... two-four-§ev
