I will never, ever get tired of Darth Vader with a juicebox.
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is dressed as Princess Leia, in a white dress and with the earmuff hairdo. Mrs Bugg is Vader, complete with helmet, cape and chest panel. They are both holding trays with a sandwich, and apple, and a straw-pierced juicebox. Naturally, they are holding hands.
The text reads: “More cosplay breaks at the death star cantina.”

Plus, it’s fun to revisit the good ones. Plus plus, it’s important to get all the use you can out of your outfits. I mean, look at Loki and I: spent time and money assembling the bits to cosplay as a Stargate team, and we’ve done it twice.
I mean, to spectacular effect both times, but still.
Not the end of the world to replay your favorites, is all I’m saying.
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is a stormtrooper, in the white plastic armor, while Mrs Bugg has, again, claimed the Jaffa outfit. She’s carrying her staff weapon, has sharpie’d the symbol of her god on her forehead and is staring right through you.
The text reads: “Yeah, even after working on outfits, Mrs Bugg insisted on the usual cosplay.”
![all about the cosplay [click to embiggen]](http://thebuggs.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/buggs_479.jpg)
They can cosplay if they want to. I wouldn’t dream of stopping them.
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is dressed as a stormtropper, with head-to-toe white plastic armor and a small pistol. Mrs Bugg is her favorite Jaffa, staff weapon in hand, symbol of her god on her forehead and thousand-yard stare going. She’s also rocking some description of armor.
The text reads: “The Buggs are looking forward to NAMM. They don’t understand that not all conventions are about cosplay.”

I love all the Buggs’ cosplay. I do not discriminate!
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is cosplaying as Princess Leia: He has two danishes strapped to his head, and is wielding a lightsaber and some sort of pistol-shaped weapon. Meanwhile, Mrs Bugg, to the surprise of absolutely no one, has called dibs on the Jaffa outfit, complete down to the staff weapon. She has the symbol of her god tattoed on her forehead, and a thousand-yard stare for expression.
The text reads: Old school cosplay for you.”
Do you guys fully understand how happy it makes me to see Bugg Vader with a juice box complete with bendy straw? It is off-the-fucking-charts happy. It is not-measurable-with-existing technology happy. It is private-smile-for-hours happy.
It is one of those tiny, easy-to-miss details of these drawings that make me so very, very glad that I have a sweetie who likes to make me smile.
Transcript:
Mrs Bugg is rocking the Vader cosplay: Helmet (with bow), cape, black robes and that weird-ass control thingy he was rocking on his chest. Mr Bugg is a stormtrooper, and they both have a gun in one hand, and, in the other, a tray, on which reposes their lunch (I’m guessing sandwiches, string cheese, baby carrots and a clementine), along with a juice box, into which the bendy straw has already been inserted.
The text reads: “The Buggs switched outfits to go get a snack at the cantina.”
Ah, so she’s going to escape. Of course.
Transcript:
A small girl-bugg, wearing a tutu, cleats and the golden forehead-brand of a First Prime Jaffa and brandishing a staff weapon and a ninja trident, is standing amid a veritable trove of cosplay accessories: A lightsaber (which nevertheless looks like a spiky … er … adult novelty), nunchucks, a scimitar, a handgun of some description, a soccer ball, a P90, boots with spurs and a couple of headbands, one with elf-ears and the other with what may be a halo, for reasons best left unexplored.
The text reads: “The possible future bugg shows how cute she could be if you approve. Please don’t tell her possible future parents she escaped.”
I think Mrs Bugg is aiming at his butt on purpose.
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is a blindfolded Bugg Skywalker, holding a lightsaber and trying to hit Mrs Bugg, who is the spherical flying droid that’s lasering him in the butt. His expression of pain and annoyance tells us he has not yet hit the droid.
The text reads: “Use the force, Bugg Skywalker!”
I love that Mr and Mrs Bugg are not letting the fact that they’re cosplaying different sides of the war hold them back.
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is rocking the full storm trooper gear, looking super cute. He is holding the hand of Mrs Bugg, who has the danishes of the space princess strapped to her head, brandishing her lightsaber.
The text reads: “Day 2 of Buggacon.”
I mean, look at the size of that thing, compared to the Ewok-bugg. I’d be scared, too.
Transcript:
A small, furry Ewok-bugg waves his arms in terror as a huge, bipedal, antennae’d horror with a fucking gun turret (… and a bow …) stomps towards it.
The text reads: “The Ewok Buggs dear the Buggpire mechs.”
Everyone knows what poor losers they are. That’s like, Care and Feeding of Your Buggkie Chapter One.
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is cosplaying as the short, round droid, facing a table on which a chess game is happening. Meanwhile, Mrs Bugg is huge and hairy and terrifying, arms raised and mouth open in a gut-wrenching bellow, about to LOSE HER SHIT ENTIRELY if Mr Bugg makes that checkmate move.
The text reads: “Let The Buggkie Win!”
I hear the Jawas Buggwaws are super friendly.
Transcript:
It’s hard to tell who is who in this one, but basically: There is a tall, skinny humanoid buggdroid and a short rounded buggdroid on wheels. Approaching them are a bunch of gun-wielding buggs, plus one bugg facing us with his arms up, presumably signalling his desire to be friendly.
The text reads: “C3Bugg0 and R2Bugg2 meet the Buggwaws. Maybe they will be friends.”
I hope she said yes!
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is down on one knee, a ring box open in his hands. A huge engagement ring sparkles from the box. He is kneeling before Mrs Bugg, in full Darth Buggirl regalia with cape and mask, arms raised in shock and a lightsaber falling from her grasp.
The text reads: “Episode 9, which follows Episode 13: Bugg Skywalker disarms Darth Buggirl with a marriage proposal.”
Glad to see Mr Bugg is finally in the right universe!
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is again Bugg Solo, but without holster this time. Mrs Bugg is Princess Leia. They’re holding hands and brandishing blasters, smiling broadly because they know their costumes rock.
The text reads: “The Buggs at Buggacon.”
When Loki started drawing the Star Wars Bugg series, I wasn’t even thinking ahead to other characters and situations, but when he said “Chewbugga” I nearly had a stroke, I was laughing so hard, and spent hours yelling “CHEWBUGGA!” and collapsing in laughter again.
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is a perfectly awesome Bugg Solo: Vest, holster on hips, laser blaster in hand. (It is absolutely not his Stargate uniform. The vest is just a vest, no pockets or little loops for ammo or anything. In conclusion, not the Stargate vest.) Mrs Bugg, gods help us all, is a buggkie, huge, fur-covered, a bandolier slung across her chest and a blunt weapon ready. in the background, an antennae’d Millennium Buggcon waits to take them on the Kessel Run.
There is no text.
Please do not make me decide which bit is more awesome: Mrs Bugg’s cinnabun hair, her facepalm, or Mr Bugg’s killer Spock cosplay. Because they’re all FUCKING AWESOME.
Transcript:
Mr Bugg is wearing the uniform of a Starfleet science officer; specifically, he is Mr Spock, as evidenced by his ears, his emotionless expression, and his Vulcan salute. Mrs Bugg, on the other hand, is doing a killer Princess Leia, with the babydoll dress, the fantastic headphone hairdo, a laser blaster in one hand and the other pressed to her forehead in exasperation, because she knows they’re going to be lynched at the con.
The text reads “Sometimes Mr Bugg gets confused about scifi genre.”
Why do I think that “buggs with lasers” will turn out really badly for all concerned?
Transcript:
A BUGG fighter and an X-wing Bugg, both with antennae, are zooming through space while the backstory scrolls above them.
The text reads: “Long ago, in a galaxy far far away, there were buggs with lasers and there were Bugg Wars.”
