5Generally, most of the tropes appearing in the original trilogy movies appear in the strips. Important pieces of dialog also appear.

7Generally funny. Sometimes NSFW.

13----
14!!''Blue Milk Special'' provides examples of:
15
16* AllAnimalsAreDogs: Chewbacca, despite being intelligent (and capable of English speech).
17* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/the-truth-about-your-dad/ Anakin]] massacred a bunch of Tusken raiders, slaughtered countless Jedi children, and whined more than Luke did in the first movie.
18* AssShove:
19** [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/?p=3225 By a]] Probe Droid, naturally, during the ''Empire Strikes Back'' arc.
20** Earlier, in the Episode IV arc:
21--->'''Vader:''' Several transmissions were sent to this ship by rebel spies. Where are the plans they sent you?\
22'''Capt. Antilles:''' In my ass!\
23'''Vader:''' (''to Stormtrooper'') Check and see if he's telling the truth. (''Antilles's eyes bulge'')
24* BadassLongRobe: Biggs Darklighter and his cape.
25* BigBadWannabe: Bobba Fett combines this with MistakenForBadass, by repeatedly taking credit for badass things people accuse him of, and through people assuming his AchievementsInIgnorance and LethalKlutz tendencies are intentional.
26* BrickJoke: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/desert-vs-snow/ Give him a break...]] [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/the-franchise-awakens/ ...she's just discovered snow.]]
27* TheCameo: In preparation for the assault on the 2nd Death Star, we get quite a gathering of foreigners.
28** [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/?p=10055 This page]] contains cameos of heroes from ''Series/BabylonFive, Series/BattlestarGalactica1978, Series/BlakesSeven'', and others.
29** [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/the-council-of-evil/ This page]] is filled with villains from most of the above franchises and more.
30** All of which turns out to be plot-relevant, as [[spoiler: the final space battle is [[UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny all the heroes and villains from various sci-fi mediums fighting each other]].]]
31* CaptainObvious: The sand troopers scouting in Tatooine [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/desert-troopers-1/ keeps on making]] remarks that should be obvious to anyone who has eyes.
32--> '''Trooper:''' We've found the pod sir. The hatch is open.\
33'''Leader:''' ''Really?'' Tell me something I ''don't'' know.\
34'''Trooper:''' Look, sir! Sand!
35* CasanovaWannabe: Han Solo.
36* CheatingWithTheMilkman: The very first strip of the comic proper has implied sex between Aunt Beru and the [[InterspeciesRomance Jawa]] milkman.
37* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Vader, natch. He's much more concerned with losing the latte maker than losing a battle, and repeatedly references ''Franchise/StarTrek''.
38* CompositeCharacter: Leia becomes a mix of her canon personality and Creator/CarrieFisher.
39* DepravedBisexual: This version of Jabba has male and female dancers.
40* DudeLooksLikeALady: A random bystander refers to Luke as a [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/splinter-of-the-minds-eye-part-11/ blond chick.]]
41* EvenEvilHasStandards: Jerjerrod would rather tell his subordinate to stall for time (via installing a Windows update) than fire a laser that would kill his own men, regardless of whether the Rebels would die too or not.
42* FateWorseThanDeath: Mentioned by name in the comic title [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/a-fate-worse-than-death/ here.]]
43* ForeignQueasine: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/blue-milk-special/ Where the title of the comic comes from...]]
44* FourFingeredHands: Which makes it look a little weird when Vader does the Vulcan salute.
45* [[IAteWhat I Drank WHAT?!:]] When Luke & Obi-Wan meet Han & Chewie in the cantina.
46-->'''Han:''' So you locals actually like this ''blue milk'' stuff?\
47'''Luke:''' Well sure...''blue milk'' is good. But what you are drinking is a blue milk ''special''. Blue milk comes from a female bantha's mammary glands.\
48'''Obi-Wan:''' Bantha boobs...\
49'''Luke:''' ''Special'' is produced by ''male'' banthas.\
50[cue OhCrap face from the two smugglers]]
51* IBangedYourMom: Vader to Luke, [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/i-am-your-father/ here.]]
52* INeedAFreakingDrink: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/han-solo-hears-the-news/ Han does this very calmly after he finds out that Leia is Vader's daughter.]]
53* JediMindTrick: It's a ''Franchise/StarWars'' parody. The authors would be remiss if it weren't included. However, in its first opportunity to appear, it [[EpicFail doesn't work]].
54* KillItWithFire: Right in the middle of a ShoutOut to ''Film/{{Aliens}}'', we get [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/burn-it-with-fire/ this scene.]]
55* MarsNeedsWomen: Averted with Jabba. Apparently he's just as willing to take male dancers in scantily-clad outfits as female ones, but he already has two of them by the time Han and Luke get captured.
56* MemeticBadass: Boba Fett in-universe. In reality a PaperTiger who thanks to a mixture of self-advertisement and sheer dumb luck has gotten the undeserved reputation as the greatest bounty hunter in the galaxy.
57* MisfitMobilizationMoment: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/spare-underwear/ The]] [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/all-ships-report-in/ fleet]] prepares to attack the 2nd Death Star.
58* MistakenForGay: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/get-a-room/ Han and Chewie misunderstand "myself, the boy, two droids, and no questions asked."]]
59-->'''Han:''' Look, there are cheap motel rooms for that kind of thing.
60* MustHaveCaffeine: Vader is almost never seen without his mug of coffee. Specifically a latté in a large mug with the [[Franchise/StarTrek Starfleet]] logo and a straw.
61* MustHaveNicotine:
62** The “Smoking Jawa” who has SmokingHotSex with aunt Beru on the first page has a lit cigarette sticking out of the void under his hood in all subsequent appearances.
63** Leia starts chain-smoking after New Hope, implied to be a response to the trauma of losing Alderaan, or an act of rebellion.
64* MyFutureSelfAndMe: Seventies George Lucas often comes into conflict with Present Day George Lucas, culminating in a fight.
65* MythologyGag: All over the place, relating to the original production of Star Wars, deleted scenes and the like.
66* NoOSHACompliance: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/death-star-inspection-1/ Death Star Inspection]] has Tarkin giving an inspection of the Death Star and criticizing the lack of guard rails over bottomless pits, and bulkhead doors that close so fast as to bisect stormtroopers.
67* NotQuiteDead: Biggs Darklighter.
68* PaintingTheMedium: In [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/?p=10311 this strip,]] one of TheCameo characters does a textbook job of painting the fourth wall.
69* PerfectlyCromulentWord: "Forciness".
70* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/spare-underwear/ these]] [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/all-ships-report-in/ two]] pages feature a space fleet featuring [[CoolStarship starships]] from at least 8 different franchises.
71* RunningGag: More than one.
72** Biggs swooping in to save Luke, only after Luke has escaped/been rescued.
73** [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/look-at-my-lightsaber/ That guy]] who got his arm chopped off keeps losing limbs.
74* [[SciFiWritersHaveNoSenseOfScale Sci Fi Cartoonists Have No Sense of Scale]]: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/liberator-wedding-dilemma/ This page]] does a decent job of illustrating this trope.
75* ShoutOut:
76** A prominent one to ''Film/ArmyOfDarkness''.
77** Another to the airlock defenestration scene from ''Film/{{Aliens}}''.
78** One to ''Film/ETTheExtraTerrestrial'' [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/luke-phones-home/ here]].
79** The [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/endor-bunker-1/ arrival at the shield control bunker]] kicks off an entire arc-long shout to ''Film/{{Aliens}}''.
80* ShowSomeLeg: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/comic/outside-the-cantina/ C-3PO considers flirting]] with a bouncer to get into a bar.
81* SignedUpForTheDental: General Nadine joins the Rebellion in part due to their better dental plan [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/?p=10150 here.]]
82* SmokingHotSex: [[http://www.bluemilkspecial.com/?p=8 After Aunt Beru has a tryst with a Jawa.]]
83* SparedByTheAdaptation: Technically Biggs ''is'' dead but he refuses to accept that unless he can use being dead to get Wedge into trouble.
84* TitleDrop: See [[IAteWhat I Drank WHAT?!]]
85* ThatsNoMoon: [[PlayingWithATrope Played]] [[PlayedForLaughs with]] then played straight.
86* WretchedHive: Mos Eisley Spaceport, natch.
