Joe is awesome, I know all sorts of hilarious secrets about him, but he paid me off with feeding my ego and drawing me. Damn him.

Little secret: Joe and I go way back with many great talks, one being my belief that Boba Fett (my second fav character) was actually a female, a spurn lover, after Han Solo. Ailyn Vel is in fact, Boba Fett's daughter, and she's after her father with a serious vengeance now. When I got the low down on the character, I was so squeeing with delight. THANKS JOE!!!
