The Further Adventures of Chewbacca

Everyone's favorite Wookiee stayed active long after he helped destroy the Empire.


Inspired by George Lucas' own dog (named Indiana), Chewbacca is that best friend that every kid would like to have. He is strong, honorable and above all loyal, but what else do we know about the greatest Wookiee who ever lived?

Meet The Chewbacca Family

Chewie Knows Best.

In the much maligned Star Wars Holiday Special we learn some interesting facts about Chewbacca's family. Chewie and Han return to the Wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk for the generic holiday, Life Day. There we are introduced to Chewie's wife, Malla, and his unfortunately named father and son, Itchy and Lumpy. Life Day takes a sudden turn toward the tragic when Imperial Troops invade the Chewie household.

Right when you thought things could not get worse Chewie and friends, Jefferson Starship shows up to perform.
