In the process of destroying the ship, Luke's Padawan sacrifices herself. It's a hard day for Luke. He's got this new girlfriend who doesn't have a body and his new apprentice just got turned into a corpse. A ... hold on, you don't think Luke would ask his ghost girlfriend to ...? No. NO. Oh, come on, Luke. NO.

He does it. He lets his ghost girlfriend drive his apprentice's dead body. And she is good to go. She throws her undead parts at Luke repeatedly. She even surprises him by dressing his apprentice's corpse up in lingerie on their second anniversary, but Luke never goes all the way. However, the author does make it clear the two were very physical. They just always stopped short of fully switching off the targeting computer.

LucasfilmShown: Three Jedi in a healthy monogamous relationship.

What is not made clear is whether Luke avoided sex with her because his Jedi code wouldn't allow penetration before marriage or because she was two different dead girls. Think back to one of your favorite Christmas mornings ... when you were eagerly ripping open an Ewok Village Playset or a LEGO Jedi Starfighter. Could you have ever imagined you'd one day grow up to learn all the ways Luke Skywalker likes to dry hump a cadaver?

So if you were thinking the complex ceremonial nature of Aargau's banking procedures would jam them up, think again. However, before they can secure the loan, Darth Vader and three assassins arrive on the planet posing as diplomats. This seems a good time to remind everyone how spoiled nerd children are today with their comics that make sense.

Vader's disguise lasts about three seconds, since his "porter" is a 1,200-pound fish monster, his "secretary" is Dracula, and his "valet" is an elderly cross-dresser with testicles on his head. Also, Princess Leia instantly recognizes them as famous assassins. However, something about the complex ceremonial nature of their banking procedures lets them through anyway.

Marvel ComicsYou guys seem alright. Enjoy your stay in Aargau!

This may sound unlikely, but the story gets even stupider from there. Since they weren't allowed to bring any weapons, Vader's men spend the entire comic bumbling their assassination attempts before Vader finally pulls out a lightsaber and kills Viscount Tardi himself.

You might be saying, "Lightsaber!? I thought weapons were outlawed on Aargau!" You're right. But he had it stashed in his "diplomatic pouch," which Customs wasn't allowed to search. Treachery! Never underestimate the power of a Sith Lord's bureaucratic loopholes! Luckily, Princess Leia hid a blaster in her diplomatic pouch. Double treachery! And when she pulled it out, the dark lord of the Sith did not hesitate to call her a "little hypocrite!"

Marvel Comics"I HAVE INSULTED YOUR STUPID POOP FACE. PRAY I DO NOT INSULT IT ANY FURTHER."

Here's where the story takes a real twist: Viscount Tardi was a droid the whole time. Knowing that the droid's identity would be discovered before the loan could be secured, and having used the Crown Jewels of Alderaan as collateral, Leia tricked Darth Vader into murdering the droid so the loan could still go through without the loan officers realizing the minister was a fake. Deep breath! Do you know what that means!? It means in space, if your co-signer gets murdered, you no longer need one! Wait, what?

In another twist, it turns out Darth Vader didn't care about any of this. He was just planning on stealing her collateral jewels and the assassination stuff was a distraction. He had bribed the Viscount's doctor to get information, and now ... you know what? It doesn't matter at this point. This is Darth Goddamn Vader, and he spent 20 pages running around playing make-believe so he could take the crown jewels of a planet he already exploded from a group of people he could kill at any time with his mind. And in the end, Leia just lets Vader get away with everything, including the jewels. Their banking procedures are certainly complicated on Aargau, but they seem similar to the ones here on Earth -- at the end of any financial treachery, the money always leaves with the most evil person.

Marvel Comics"GOOD CREDIT IS INSIGNIFICANT NEXT TO THE POWER OF THE FORCE."

Incredibly, this wasn't the only time Vader screwed over the finances of the Rebels. In fact, he kept screwing their credit rating even after his death. In the terrifyingly named comic "Jawas Of Doom," Han flies with Leia to Mos Eisley to take money out of his account. When he gets there, a clerk tells him his account has been frozen because its owner was frozen ... in carbonite by Darth Vader.

Think about that -- it means some writer was given the opportunity to create stories in the most beloved universe in the history of fiction and he went with "Han waits in line at bank; it's annoying."

Marvel Comics"You're not authorized to deal with customers who've been thawed out of carbonite? You talk like you were written by someone who doesn't know how comedy, Star Wars, OR banks work!"

The two could never get past how they each secreted nothing but skin irritants from their pores and/or fur. And Corran had no desire to move to her otter planet and breed what would almost certainly be monster babies in a constant state of howling itchiness. So like every pair of star-crossed lovers who found their genitals caused mutual physical harm, they broke up. But Star Wars fans, it wasn't the last time a hotshot pilot would have sexy adventures with a human-sized otter.

LucasfilmDon't let her fur touch your genitals or mucus membrane, Han Solo!

Back in the main bar, the crowd is packed with a cute, furry race of aliens called Lahsbees, which are normally only 0.5 meters tall, according to Wookieepedia. However, when they hit puberty, they suddenly transform into gigantic, wild monsters known as Huhks, because when you're a professional writer creating an alien race exactly like the Incredible Hulk, the best name for them is "Hulk," only with a typo.

So this is a planet where a race of aliens spontaneously turn into mindless rage monsters and the stupid things are allowed into crowded bars. Fine. What we need to worry about is how our heroes are in an enclosed space with too few fire exits and too many biological time bombs. Oh, and did we mention Lahsbees hit puberty faster when they get angry and the star performer just canceled her show? It's going to be a bloodbath!

Princess Leia knows she has to do something, so she hatches a desperate two-part plan.

Marvel ComicsThe first part is T and the second part is A.

That's right, Leia takes off her clothes, gets on the stage, and starts singing to prevent the world's laziest writer's idea of an alien from killing everyone out of crankiness. And for a minute, it works! The adorable Lahsbees hum along with her sweet song. All except one of them, who begins to choke and contort. Luke Skywalker's heightened warrior instincts are the fourth to sense something's wrong, and after three other patrons announce what's happening, Luke screams the words you never want to hear about a puberty space monster: "I THINK HE WAS OVERSTIMULATED!"

Marvel Comics"Finished the HUHK issue! Next arc I have an idea for a planet of aliens whose parents got killed by criminals so they dedicate their lives to becoming BUTTS."

Let's retrace our steps to see where this plan may have gone off the rails. The Rebels were trying to prevent the aliens from hitting puberty, so they had a sexy, half-naked woman sing a seductive song to them? The only way that could work is if the author had no idea what puberty was. Wait a minute ... no experience with puberty, telepathic pink rabbits ... aliens that are just Ewoks and Hulks smashed together? The Star Wars Expanded Universe was written by 9-year-olds! It explains everything!
