You're Peter.
Well maybe... I certainly wasn't born rich like Harry.
But... I don't have any 'woke agenda' complaints about Disney's handling of Star Wars, and I'm not old enough to have seen the originals in theaters.
Lucas, for all his clumsiness in writing dialogue and characters, cared about what he was doing and it showed in his work. He got other people to care about it too, and they improved the work.
Disney doesn't care, and it shows. All of my complaints about 'new' Star Wars stem from the money-grubbing corporatism and short-sighted fanbase exploitation that the new owners have demonstrated.
So, I don't think I'm really like Peter in this comic... I'm not carrying that burden of nostalgia, and frankly with Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks as examples I think some 'wokeness' only improves old franchises.
