My own favorite moment from this issue, and hopefully in consideration for the “Golden Plif” award, was Chewbacca chucking a Stormtrroper into the tractor beam generator.

I'm a huge fan of PLIF, they were one of the first comics I started following on the web.

Thanks Craig. Zach, my mind is also blown that this was a major influence on you. I had a very very small part in the early days of PLIF and was good friends with the creators but we've fallen out of touch in the last couple decades.

You're blowing my mind. PLIF appeared as a comic in Imprint, the student newspaper at University of Waterloo, when I was an undergrad there. Didn't know it had such broad reach. At the risk of imposing: @ericlippert.com, are you still in touch with them?

Parking Lot is Full (PLIF) was a webcomic that is long dead. This one was darkly poignant and remains so to this day.
