    I met Peter and his wife at Big Apple Comic Convention in New York City, i had a booth there selling my second independent comic book anthology with all my fellow artist i met at FIT Illustration program, Matt and i took a break from signing at our booth to walk around the con and meet other constituents, I went to Peter's table to get my Chewbacca trade paper back signed, Rystall Sant from ROTJ was also there without makeup, beautiful, She signed my Jabba's Dancers figures card, I don't remember her name, but my friend Matt was laughing at me, he was making fun of me because I was geeking out, and I caught a nerd-gasm, I froze, I love you Matt! Well, anyway Peter and his wife gave me a look like DUDE what's up? So I dug in my pockets for the $10 signing fee, any who; we was high as heck, I still have both items... I will never forget that day. MTFBWU... ALWAYS. WOOKIEPEDIA!!!!

    Matt is a manager at Forbidden Planet the best darn comic book shop in New York City, and I'm a New York City Correction Officer working in downtown Manhattan. One day we'll get together and publish another comic book!

    I always aspire to be as awesome as Chewie. Sure, he's a fierce warrior who could rip your arm off in a flash, but underneath all that is a kind, gentle soul. No matter what, Chewie is always there to protect his friends. And I'm sure that's who Peter was at heart because only a really special person could bring out such a special Wookiee. Thank you, Peter.
