At first glance this one appears very scruffy and hard to read. The panels could do with being a bit bigger, the text could do with being a bit clearer and the characters could maybe use stronger outlines?

It just all looks a bit cramped. Give your comic room to breathe!

I can't really say more than because I really do find it that hard to read. Sorry dude.

I think this comic is pretty funny. I know Ronin can draw, and this is not his best work by far, but it's good for what he probably wants it to be. Sometimes it is hard to read. Maybe spend a little more time lettering, since that's where most of the jokes are.

Almost reminds me of the Lego SW characters. And we can easily tell the characters apart. That's a plus. And since so many people have seen Star Wars, it appeals to a large audience. In addition, Jar Jar Binks dies. Yay.

Overall this is a nice parody.

okay, i've read all 8 pages before (probably twice) so I must like it. But, yeah, it is way too hard to read. And the thing is, its pretty funny throughout. And I like the artwork; different but with a familar feel. The inside jokes are great and general enough that I got 'em and I've seen the new movies only once each (hey, i saw star wars in april 1977, i'm old).

so, here's the deal. *if* you cleaned up the art and *if* you cleaned up the text and *if* you produced more pages and *probably if* you did it all in color, you would have a very, very popular webcomic. Like, with your own website and lots and lots of regular fans, etc. you've got all the talent to make it happen, you've just to work on the basics.

best of luck!

ok lets start

by the way i didnt read the others reviews

art.- sketchy art its great some people in here cant draw decent but you know what are you doing , but its hard to read and need to be a little clean

story.- its a parody strip the jokes are funny , but remember not all the people likes or know star wars (at least in my country)
i may be hard but i dont like to write all the time about other people creations i would like to see something new and original

I almost forgot you can tell easily a story i never got lost in your comic
great job

I quite like the art style you have going on here - sketchy and loose, but still easily recognisable. And the humour! The humour really makes this comic jump out and strangle you :D

But yes, the composition of the early pages is... difficult to get through. Once it starts settling down, though, it comes together a lot better. The art is, at heart, quite simple and clean and it looks it's best when simple and clean and not all scrunched up and full to bursting point.

I'm a little late in putting up a review for this one. I need to catch up.

Anyways, hears my review for Rawr Wars.

ART: I've got to agree with most of the reviewers here. The art is a little cramped and sketchy. It's not bad, really. I'm just saying that it would look a little better if it was drawn bigger.

STORY: I love parodies. Especially when they're parodies of favorite movies like Star Wars, Star Trek, LOTR, etc. There's some really funny moments in this one. Jar Jar dying= Instant crowd pleaser!!! Once again, because the panels are so small, the writing is difficult to read at times. Especially page 5 - panel 3.

RATING: Liked the comic a lot. But the small panels and difficult to read text kind of knocks it down a little. Rawr Wars gets a respectible 3 out of 5 Twisted Evil Emotes.

Oh dear God, I almost cried when I first read this..because I thought I was going blind! ...Well, after I got over that, I found it very funny. Anything that pokes fun at star wars is funny.

All this comic needs is a bit more detail, I think. I mean, sure..it's chibis..but they could have shading! Right? And nice backgrounds? yeah? Too many people use chibis as an excuse to be lazy. I've had enough of that.

But good stuff. I give it 8 thumbs up!
