Here we have a bizarre combination of hamsters and Star Wars, that I'm sure only fellow Spy IG-PPO could appreciate. In 1986, Eclipse Comics published Adolescent Radioactive Black Belt Hamsters, a comic I can only assume was inspired by that more popular 80's comic book - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. In addition to a regular series, a 3-D series of the Hamsters was released, with each issue including 3-D glasses. Issue number 2 was a parody of the classic Star Wars plotline, and featured a beautifully done homage to Star Wars artwork.

This issue was later reprinted in a non-3-D format by Parody Press, and featured a different Star Wars inspired cover. For those who like to mix their hamsters with sci-fi, these are a pretty cheap target to hunt down.
