==Explanation==
This comic features {{w|Darth Vader}}, the main antagonist from the original {{w|Star Wars}} trilogy. In the films, Vader possesses the ability to strangle his minions without having to touch them, using only the so called "{{w|force}}". This practise has therefore been called force-choking. The comic assumes that Vader used this technique against himself with the help of a mirror in order to become sexually aroused.

{{w|Autoerotic asphyxiation}} is a sexual practise in which a self-induced lack of oxygen to enhance sexual stimulus. The method is considered dangerous without supervision, as loss of consciousness can result in continued strangling which might, in extreme cases, be fatal.

This risk of fainting is taken up in the comic, where Vader has apparently force-choked himself to the point of unconsciousness and is now given medical treatment by two EMTs.

The title text is a pun on the term "choking the chicken", a colloquial expression referring to male {{w|masturbation}}. "Force-choking the chicken" might mean a technique of self-gratification by use of the "force" without having to apply one's hands.
