Manga vs. Marvel
This is definitely on the geeky side but still very interesting. Comparing how Marvel artists and Manga artist drew some of the key scenes from the episodes 4-6. You get a clear sense of the constraints that the Marvel artists had with their limited space and strict codes from the Comics Code Authority. Also with Manga issue being huge and very gory by American standards Lots of scenes have their drama lavishly drawn out[no pun] over several pages. This scene depicting the destruction of Alderaan is particularly striking.

Operation: That's no moon

So apparently, the date has been set to show that we still have the asteroids to run this show. We will be blowing SAT USA 193 out of the cosmos. The time is set for 10:30 pm EST so it'll coincide with the lunar eclipse. Maybe we will get some fireworks as well. Head on over to The Danger Room and participate in the name the rogue satellite game.
