I DIG DUG is an insanely hilarious comic created by the insanenly hilarious Douglas Weller. I DIG DUG first saw print in "Tne Lantern", The Ohio State University daily newspaper, from 1999-2001. IDD also saw print in "The Hometown Connection", Marysville, Ohio's weekly newspaper from 2006-2009. Currently, IDD is on hiatus while I concentrate on "Lost on Earth" which I'm designing as a web-comic. Syndication, action figures, cartoons, and a live action movie deal can't be too far behind.

"Ewoks, Wookiees and Mon Calamaris"
So, technically my mom got me this book for Xmas. It's a Star Wars Quiz Book that has a little electronic counter in the lower right hand side. It chooses a random question for you (our of 2500) and you have to punch in the answer. They're all multiple choice, and honestly when she bought it, I didn't think it'd be too hard.
HA!!! My mistake!!!
Now, let it be known that I am a Star Wars junkie. I grew up with Star Wars, and just love it. Even the stuff that all Star Wars geeks hate (like Phantom Menace), I love!!! I think it's the most epic batch of sci-fi movies of all time.
That being said...this book drove me CRAZY!!! I feel that I have a vast amount of Star Wars knowledge from years of reading the books, watching the movies, collecting the comics, etc, etc. BUT...this book literally had me in stitches.
Sample Question: Over what was Tarkin given almost unlimited jurisdiction when Emperor Palpatine made him Grand Moff? A. Oversector Outer, B. The Corporate Sector, C. THe Perlemian Trade Route, or D. The Core Worlds
Yeah...and that's juse ONE question. Out of the 2500 questions in the book, I'll be half of them deal with stuff you just don't find or see or hear in the movies. They're stuff you only get from the novels, comics, etc. So, needless to say, the book is driving me crazy so it became the inspiration for this comic, the first NEW strip of '09.
