    I love this comic, seen it first I think a decade ago.

    Of course it’s already funny on the surface, but it also makes you stop and think about what you would choose.

      Is it really true love, if a wish compelled it?

      Millennium Falcon. Just saying.

      Actually, I think I’d rather a Ton Falk, complete with a collection of fighters/bombers to go with it.

        What would you need all those military vehicles for, though? Who exactly are you fighting?

          Hmm. I think the first thing I’ll do, is give a few to Ukraine. You know. Just to demonstrate their total superiority. Maybe install kill switches so they have to come back for maintenance periodically. Like John Deere or something.

          Then get all the “good” guys addicted to them so all the “bad” guys get fucked… Then hit the kill switches and demand everyone stops being fucking mean.

          Maybe give them a few of the crappy battle droids from the prequels, so they’re autonomous and can’t necessarily be hacked.

        Arguing about the trueness of love is just getting too into semantics and willfully creating a non true scottsman debate.

        I’ll take a Death Star and a shuttle to get to it. You won’t believe what happens next!

          Come on, if you are going there, wish for a Battle Planetoid like Dahak, often described “what the death star wants to be when it grows up”.

          Armorments include multiple km thick armor, mass missiles capable of destabilizing stars… and a park the size of Manhattan island for its captain.

          Highlights from the books include being pelted by enough multi-gigaton missiles to make its deflectors look like the cornea of a star

      If you wish for anything other than the end of deadly conflicts between humans or something similar then you need to think about your priorities real hard…

        Nah, you just need a number of friends so everyone can cover each other’s bases while a couple make the altruistic world changing wishes.

          And then everyone thinks the same thing and in the end everyone has a starship and no one has peace.
