    This reminds me of those quasi-interrogations parents sometimes have with their children, asking questions that have already been answered with irrefutable evidence.

    I always knew Gabe would do something like this, I just figured it would happen with something related to Spider-Man. Oh well, at least I didn't put money on it. This time.

    Both Gabe and Tycho's faces in that final panel are perfect. I was laughing before I even read the punchline.

    Then I read the punchline and started a whole second wind of laughter.

    @YoungFrey: That's a pretty sweet-and-also-old looking Luke Skywalker. But it's weird to see such a setpiece. Kinda ruins the magic.

    I'm not a nice guy, I just play one in real life.

    The thing is, to me he doesn't look old at all. Not 18 like he was in Star Wars. But I've spent the last 38 years watching Luke Sykwalker turn into an actual old man. Any age the south side of 50 on Luke looks young to me.

    the best part about that picture is my natural beard color is very similar.. guess I need to hit the fabric store and make me a old Luke costume. hmmm wonder if he is still using the ROTJ Green saber.

    That's one thing I am envious about the celebrity types.. need to get in shape for a role, BAM personal trainer, dietitian, access to all sorts of gyms etc etc and of course the time to do it cause your day job is getting in shape for that role..

    Or.. they just put you on the Cocaine Diet :D

    For the money Disney put into this movie, they made it so Hafthór Júlíus Björnsson could slap the hamburgers out of Mark Hamils mouth.

    It's impressive what a studio willing to pay a full time trainer and nutritionist, combined with a performance based contract with millions, can do.

    By big three I assume you mean Luke, C3PO and R2-D2 have all been slimming down.

    What is this I don't even.

    C3PO recently underwent a gender reassignment upgrade, and now prefers the designation of Caitlyn3PO. R2 also went through a few changes and is now a recycled foods vending machine. So... maybe?
    In real news, or olds rather, I'm wondering how Han Solo is doing ever since he crashed the Millennium Falcon. I mean, he's also Indiana Jones and the President, so I'm sure he's fine.

    I don't think this is a cool thing to make a joke of.

    I'm picturing a gold Sorayama "gynoid" now, basically.

    Gabe has apparently not encountered this situation very often.
    As a veteran of screen-fucking, just tell whoever is questioning the gaping hole that there are mosquitoes the exact size and shape of your penis and they are speedy motherfuckers that are attracted to your luminous computer screen and always kamikaze through it.
    I don't suspect anybody knows I'm lying yet, so keep this our little secret!

    Yelling at butts will never NOT be funny. Thanks, Psy!
    Also, Abby is awesome. Keep up with TLH because it's the tits!

    I love League of Legends, but seriously...screw you, Teemo.

    Okay so two of the big three would be his left arm and his right arm, of course, since those are ripped... but I don't want to ask what the third is...

    Spaceballs 2:Moichendising Boogaloo needs to be a thing. Bill Pullman could return as Lone Star, Chris Candy could be Barf, Jr and it could have Carrie Fisher doing Dot Matrix's voice. Daphne Zuniga would return only this time around she'd be playing both herself in the role of one of the producers of the film-within-a-film AND Vespa, Queen of the Dru's. The joke would be that you couldn't tell her characters apart.

    Actually I should probably stop there because I'm not sure they'd get away with a proper Mel Brooks-style sequel.

    Even a personal trainer and nutritionist aren't a shortcut to losing weight and getting in shape. They're not suddenly going to produce a magic pizza that burns calories, or find a way to make sitting on your arse into an intense workout. Like, the solution is the same, still a lot of work, only you've got someone shouting at you to do it.

    More importantly, the actors are being paid to get into shape.

    And nothing else. I could hire a personal trainer, but I still have to go to work. An actor getting in shape just has to wander over to the gym they have in their home. Also, somebody is probably cooking all of their food and doing their grocery shopping so they have fewer chances to backslide.

    Let's just say that the comic is ESPECIALLY relevant, in terms of the kind of "strength training" you'd need. :D
