365 Days of Star Wars Comics, Day 321, Life Day: We celebrate a day of peace, a day of harmony, a day of joy we all can share together joyously

Happy Life Day! Please spend it with your loved ones as well as your creepy hairy grandfather, and remember, it only happens every three years, so if you're lucky, you won't have to watch that Special again until 2017. Caution: do not allow Imperial Stormtroopers into the treehouse! They'll just ruin your Life Day dinner.
