Porgs Rule the Internet with These Memes

Move aside, Ewoks and Loth-cats. The porgs are the newest adorable creature to Star Wars. Confirmed by StarWars.com, the lil’ cuties that call Ahch-To home will play a role in Episode VIII. Fans flipped out the moment the porgs appeared in the recently released behind-the-scenes reel for The Last Jedi. I swear it was like the world said “Awww!” in complete unison.

Chewie and the Porgs by writer Kevin Shinick and artist Fiona Hsieh

Then it got better at San Diego Comic-Con because Lucasfilm announced an upcoming kids’ book called Chewie and the Porgs. The book sounds like too good to be true fan art, but it’s reality. The title inspired fans to get creative and make porg memes. Porg. Memes. We are so blessed. Here are some of the best porg memes on the interwebs:

First up, an epic album cover nod to Porgy and Bess by Colin Bishop featuring Boss Nass and his porg pal.

This isn’t so much a meme as it is fan art, but look at Dan Tube‘s art of porgs in costumes:
