(C) 2008 R. Stevens — from DieselSweeties.com
Artist R. Stevens dedicates his #1977 numbered strip of “Diesel Sweeties” to a Star Wars debate some of us hold near to our hearts — Why didn’t Chewie get a medal at the end of A New Hope?
Ironically, the girl who loves Wookiees just so happens to be my Diesel Sweeties Doppelgänger! No, really — see for yourself.

Chewbacca didn’t get a medal, because the Wookies doesn’t believe in medals. Or am I now wrong?
@Lord Tirus: Yeah I’ve heard that excuse too, but quite frankly I don’t buy it. I think everyone, even Wookiees, like getting shiny awards for a job well done.
I agree with bonniegrrl, but to tell the truth, i don’t think that Chewbacca would want to wear it, he hardly wears any clothes in the first place.
@darthrevan-64: You’re totally right! Chewie just isn’t a bling kinda Wookiee!
Chewie’s jewelry preferences aside, dieselsweeties is an excellent webcomic. Be aware that is has certain maturity expectations, but Mr. Stevens has a good thing goin’ on. Check out the T’s, too!
I always assumed he ate it, off-screen.
Ape Lad has a good point, why wouldn’t he eat it? Who knows what wookies eat.
