Commander Toad is a series of children's books by Jane Yolen, published by Puffin Books from 1980 to 1998. The series is a toad-themed parody of pop culture science fiction filled with puns. Star Wars is referenced with many puns on iconic Star Wars characters including Jake Skyjumper (Luke Skywalker), Deep Wader (Darth Vader) and Star Warts, the name of Commander Toad's ship. The books feature Commander Toad and his crew exploring the Galaxy for Starfleet, and each story is a different mission, a clear reference to Star Trek.
In 1993, the first book was adapted into an ABC Weekend Special produced by Churchill Films. The special used puppets and it featured the voices of Mark Hamill as Jake Skyjumper and Nichelle Nichols as SS Stella.
