Learn your STAR WARS ABC's through these Fun Illustrations
Here is a fun collection of illustrations from Tweedlebop on flickr, who takes us through the ABC's of Star Wars. This is a great wait to get your kids hooked on Star Wars at a young age by teaching them the alphabet Star Wars style. Enjoy!
A is for Ackbar
As it's the 30th anniversary summer of the release of Star Wars, I'm going to put out some ABC illustrations! Starting with everyone's favorite Mon Calamari admiral.
B is for Bantha
What's more Star Wars than a bantha?
C is for Chirpa
And you thought you'd get through this set without seeing an ewok. Ha! Chief Chirpa rocks! The brilliant tactician who helped bring down the Empire! Or something like that...
D is for Droopy
Droopy McCool that is! Brilliant horn player in Max Rebo's band.
E is for Evazan
E is for Doctor Evazan. Doctor Evazan you say? Does this quote refresh your memory?
"You just watch yourself. We're wanted men. I have the death sentence on twelve systems."
F is for Fisto
Kit Fisto! One of the numerous Jedi who fought at the arena on Geonosis, sadly dispatched by Darth Sidious one movie later. His grimace will go down in the Jedi archives.
G is for GNK & Garindan
Two for one letter! The GNK Power Droid and Garindan. The Power Droids ("gonk! gonk!") should be very familiar as they're walking very slowly throughout the saga (they really are everywhere). And let's not even mention that sneaky Garindan fellow...
H is for Hutt
I think she/he likes you.
(The Hutts are hermaphroditic (!) so think of that with your next slave-girl outing).
I is for IG-88
Seen standing among the other bounty hunter scum in Episode V, IG-88 has been a favorite of mine since I was a kid. Who was this stick like war droid and what could he do with those unbending arms and legs? In Episode III, we see an early relative of IG-88, the IG-100s, who defend General Grevious aboard the Invisible Hand. Droids just kick Jedi butt!
J is for Jawa
Let's learn some Jawaese!
M'um m’aloo - Greetings, Hello
Taa baa - Thank you, Thanks
Utto nye usabia atoonyoba? - Want to buy a used droid?
Ny shootogawa! - Don't shoot!
Ushabia namba kee koolee? - Does it have air-conditioning?
Utinni - Wow, Battle cry, Alert to other jawas.
K is for K-3PO
It's Kay-Threepio, the stuffy protocol droid who was the Rebel coordinator at Yavin and Hoth. I'm sure C-3PO and he had choice words from time to time.
L is for Lars
Pictured here are a young Owen Lars and his wife Beru (Whitesun) a few years after Owen had his step-brother's kid dumped off with them. Between hiding whiny Luke, battling Tusken Raiders and just plain surviving as moisture farmers, by the time we see the Lars family in Episode IV, they look like they're 60!
M is for Mothma
The most powerful *female* character in the films, Senator Mon Mothma (seen here from Revenge of the Sith) helps lead a rebellion that will bring Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader to their knees. With the help of some teddy bears from the moon of Endor...
N is for Neyo
Ah, where would the Empire be without their clone troopers? Pictured here is Commander Neyo, who upon Order 66 helped wipe out the Jedi Stass Allie way out on Saleucami. Just make sure he doesn't have to walk through any doorways and he's a killing machine!
O is for Ozzel
That'll teach you to bring the Imperial fleet out of hyperspace too soon, Admiral Ozzel!
P is for Porkins
"I have a bad feeling about this," mutters Jek Porkins as he preps his X-Wing for a last ditch attack on the Death Star...
Q is for Quadinaros
Don't name your kid after the letter Q in the Star Wars universe. It appears to be a very rare and, in Ben Quadinaros' case - unlucky - letter. Poor Quadinaros and his faulty Podracer power couplings. Some day he'll win that trophy!
R is for R5-D4
So what if R5-D4 didn't blow his motivator - would Luke still be stuck on Tatooine? Would R2 have been melted down, ruining his 18 years of planning? Would the Emperor be unstoppable? We shall never know.
S is for Sarlacc
Boba Fett? Where? Gulp.
T is for Tarfful
You didn't think I'd forget to throw in a wookiee here, did you?
U is for Ugnaught
Deep in the bowels of Cloud City, some little pig people are making sure that a certain Corellian smuggler is frozen safely...
V is for Ventress
I know - not from the films! But where would your Star Wars ABC education be without a Sith?
Straight from Dermot Power's concept art, to the Clone Wars, I'd say Asajj Ventress is pretty much a part of Star Wars now. Perhaps we'll see her in the live action series?
W is for Wampa
No bacta tanks can bring back your baby face after a wampa attack!
XYZ is for Xam, Yaddle & Zutton
And the finale!
X is for Xam(s), the medical team who deliver a set of important twins at the end of Revenge of the Sith.
Y is for Yaddle, a little seen *female* Jedi of the same species as Yoda.
Z is for Zutton, need more be said?
