That time Indian Jones discovered the remains of the Millennium Falcon

"Into the Great Unknown" (Star Wars Tales #19) was written by Haden Blackman, who'll be co-writing Batwoman once the new 52 start up in September.

Poor Chewie.

[shupermang.insanejournal.com]

Agreed. Han biting it doesn't do much for me beyond, "Ehh, it's an Elseworld". Sad Chewie on a tree limb though...Excuse me, I think there's something in my eye.

Manly Tear.

Somewhere, a fanfic writer squees in joy.

"My Indy/Han slash crossover fic is canon! I knew it all along!"

[cypherfdp]

Also, it looks like Short Round grew up to become Amadeus Cho.

[crinos]

And thus Thunderstrike is vindicated.

[tsunamiwombat]

Mind = Blown

[blackruzsa]

HE SAW THE CONNECTION NONE OF US DID.

[darkknightjrk]

I remember seeing io9 write a piece for this a while back--well written/drawn, but...man, when you hear about a story where Indiana Jones meets Han Solo, this is about the exact opposite of what you'd expect.

[acton]

I was thinking, "Why would they have an Indiana Jones/Star wars crossover--oooh. Same actor.

If you play "Lego Indiana Jones" and complete a sub-group of tasks across several levels, Han from "Lego Star Wars" becomes a playable character.

[fleur_de_liz]

And vice-versa. Indy becomes a playable character if you play through "Lego Star Wars."

Plus Indy's fedora pops up in the disguise dispenser. Chewie rocks that hat like no other Wookiee can.

[icon_uk]

Indy becomes a playable character if you play through "Lego Star Wars."

Which version, because you can't on LSW I or LSW II?

[fleur_de_liz]

The Complete Saga.

Which means that if you want Indy vs. Vader, you've gotta deal with Jar-Jar first. Fortunately, he's slightly less obnoxious in Lego form.

[icon_uk]

Sigh... I MUST upgrade from my PS2 at some point.... (Though having said that, by coincidence I'm just playing LSW II again. Still a nifty little game! Next up for a replay; Lego Batman for PS2!)

[lieut_kettch]

There was a fanfic written about the Empire coming to the Milky Way galaxy and taking over Earth which was in the middle of WW II. Basically Earth is quickly subdued, with Hitler appointed Moff of our solar system. This causes all sorts of trouble for Indy, since he's constantly being mistaken for that notorious rebel, Captain Han Solo. Too bad the author never completed his or her fic.

[cainofdreaming]

Well, at least we can be sure that Indy shot first.

His opponent had a sword.

[tsunamiwombat]

Oh god poor Chewie baaaw ;-;

[cainofdreaming]

Always considered that bit on the above cut image a nice shout out to Fate of the Atlantis. It really should have been the fourth movie.

[mullon]

That would be so awesome if it was. Damn that was a good game.

[darrylayo]

Cute.

I love the art, I hope this person gets more work soon.

[nemryn]

126 years isn't really aa 'long, long time ago', though, is it?

Ah but...

[steverodgers5]

If you think about it though, Indy and Short round would be visiting the Falcon around 1935. So really from our perspective now it would add about another 75 years.

And I could just about buy the arguement that a couple of centuries is a long, long time ago. Certainly it seems that way to me!

(Yeah, I've really thought about this story too much! ;) )

[pyrotwilight]

Didn't the Falcon have a time/space drive that let it to superfast? Maybe the damages also propelled it into the future? (Thus why Han doesn't recognize anything) and then 126 years later is from THAT point on. So....maybe?

[auggie18]

Nice art. Sad story.

[silverzeo]

Now I want to see Chewie glomp Indy...

[tsunamiwombat]

Is that guide anybody inparticular? because I love his design, he looks awesome.

[icon_uk]

I can't imagine he is. Indy's guides tend to be nameless or are, at best, tertiary characters who may well not make it past actually reaching sight of wherever they are supposed to be guiding him to.

[citygod]

who's the artist on this?

[arbre_rieur]

Sean Murphy, he of JOE THE BARBARIAN.

[proteus_lives]

Great "What If".
