Comic for Monday 3/15 (Early High Res) (Patreon)

Last year we started watching Star Wars with the kiddos. The OT, the PT, all seasons of the Clone Wars, all seasons of Rebels, both seasons of the Mandalorian. Eventually we finished everything, and my oldest says "But Dad... what about Rey?"
Big sigh.
It's not that I *hate* the ST. They're not terrible, there's some stuff there I enjoy... I actually like The Last Jedi the most of all three because it's the one movie that tried to stand on its own, and not regurgitate the OT. It didn't succeed in 100% of the things it attempted, but I give it credit for trying.
All in all, though, they're not movies that I get excited about watching. TROS especially... I'd only seen it the once. I walked out the theater and said to my wife "I don't think I will ever feel the need to watch that again for the rest of my life." It was a mess, and just shone a bright light on the fact that Disney had no plan going into that trilogy, and just made it up as they went along.
But it's still Star Wars, and the kiddos wanted to see everything. So we did it. Now I've seen TROS twice. We're done having kids, so thankfully I should never have to do that again.
