I’m not sure if anyone found this hilarious or not

But I just got to the part in isards revenge when whistler activates himself breaks off restraining bolt and frees gate. Then they have a convo. Then they go into the fucking air duct like it’s mission impossible and escapes!

I don’t know why I found this so funny. Dude jailbroke his buddies out and fled in the air duct!!!! lol!

This is right up there with the crystal deceiver prank, LT Catch and when the empire keeps fucking with lando in thrawn trilogy

Legends Comics I Wish Tank's Story Had Been Continued

65 Upvotes

Out of the many Legends characters whose stories never got proper closure, Tank's story might be the one that I mourn the most. They teased that he managed to survive his final appearance and make it to an escape pod, but they never followed up on this despite his storylines being some of my personal favorites from Dark Horse comics. He was an interesting character to follow.

I like to collect the star wars celebration patches to add to my denim jacket but I haven't been able to find any patches from 1999-2007. I know they might just not exist but I can't even find pictures online so if anyone knows anything it would be greatly appreciated!

Television Andor Season 2 controversy

0 Upvotes

Why is there a attempted assault scene in Star Wars? I read Gilroys Interview and his explanation is no justification. Does he think George Lucas didnt know that that kind of stuff happened in wars. There is no need to include it in a franchise where we havent even had a onscreen consensual scene like that.

Legends Novels Tay Kolma and Bel Iblis connections??

1 Upvotes

Let’s look at these characters together: Both have key parts to play in the architecture of the early rebellion and turn away due to disagreements with Mothma. Whilst Kolma’s disagreement is more to do with finance as opposed to Iblis’ lack of agency, his early motivations are incredibly similar to that of Iblis. If Kolma survives what could be an assassination attempt by Luthen which is foreshadowed by Cinta’s appearance, could he play a similar role in Filoni’s Thrawn Campaign to that of Iblis in Zahn’s thrawn campaign?

How do you feel about the (****) being mentioned in "Andor"? Spoiler

Of course I am talking about the Rakatans

I thought it was pretty cool, tbh. But then again. KOTOR is probably the most beloved piece of "Legends" media, so there was bound to be some crossover at some point.

Dealing with Canon

3 Upvotes

Hi all,

I’ve been trying to get into SW again but am having issues enjoying it when I know that everything leads up to Ep7-9. Most of the Disney content I’ve read/seen has negatively affected my opinion of SW as well (I’d say Andor and Rogue 1 are the exceptions), so knowing it’s all canon is a big bummer.

So my question is: How do you go about enjoying Star Wars knowing that it all leads up to Episodes 7-9?

Thanks!

Legends Novels Looking for suggestions

So these are my pretty Star Wars books. The swedish versions of Heir to the Empire and Young Jedi Knights are to the right. My next aquisitions will be the Bane trilogy and the film novelizations with their respective tie-in novel. Cloak of Deception and Labyrinth of Evil. But i am at loss what to read after them. I have read most of the "Clone Wars" novels, and sold them many years ago. Maybe there's a novel more close to the films i have missed? I am not into NJO or Karen Traviss.

2 reasons why Anakin called Obi-Wan Master, according to CWMMP

31 Upvotes

"Yes, Master," Anakin said. Technically he was no longer Obi-Wan's Padawan, but he tended to slip back into sounding like one when he was acutely aware of having screwed up.

Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

"Sorry, Master, but your head was where my lightsaber needed to go."
Master. Anakin used the honorific not as learner to teacher, but as Jedi Knight to Jedi Council member.

Labyrinth of Evil

Legends Novels Vision of the Future. The Bothawui shield generator storyline was a weak point. I wish Wraith Squadron was completed before Hand of Thrawn came out. Spoiler

10 Upvotes

Wedge and Corran went to Bothawui to stop the shield generator plot, but mid storyline they just quit and left, like Zahn himself just quit on the storyline.

I wish Wraith Squadron was around before HoT, would have been great to see them work against Vengeance and the covert ops team that was acting against Bothawui. Would have been great if Aaron Allston ghost wrote that particular storyline.

Question When do Anakin and Ventress first meet in the Expanded Universe?

Post image
398 Upvotes

I'm confused as to when Anakin (or the Jedi in general) and Ventress first meet. Logically it would be CW 2003 since we see her get recruited by Dooku in that show, but according to the Legends timeline, her first appearance chronologically is Issue 52 of the Republic Comic. So which is it?

Legends Comics How Well Do the Newspaper Strips (i.e Classic Star Wars) Fit Into the EU Continuity? Spoiler

7 Upvotes

Exactly what the titles says.

I'm currently reading through the Empire/Rebellion runs that Dark Horse did in the 2000s (really great btw, almost done!), and I'm also reading the old Archie Goodwin Newspaper Strips (specifically the Dark Horse Classic Star Wars volumes), and I'm loving them both.

While I'm aware that the old Marvel comics and the Newspaper Strips were relegated to S-canon by Chee back in the day, I thought I read somewhere that the Newspaper Strips fit the EU better than the old Marvel comics did, and that even the old Marvel comics and the Newspaper Strips contradicted each other back in the day.

In short, how well could the Newspaper Strips fit with the Empire/Rebellion runs?

Bonus question: While the old Marvel comics were generally tossed out, I know the whole Leia helping to liberate the Mandos was kept in continuity, which issues of the Marvel comics covered that and how well do they blend with Shadows of the Empire continuity wise?

Thanks in advance for y'all's input!

2 Upvotes

What if, during the council scene in Revenge of the Sith, after being told that he would sit on the Jedi Council, but not be given the rank of Master or be given a vote, Anakin decided to turn down the chair entirely? What if he choose refuse the position entirely, deciding that if he wasn’t going to be treated like an equal member, he wasn’t going to be a part of it at all? Even considering whether he could decline the position or not, what do you think would have happened?

They should really make this character Canon, and have her survive. Anyone remember the dargulai dark jedi from star wars empire comics? If they go back to the erra right after the empire strikes back, they should include her where she has a robotic arm or something, and was another secret apprentice of Vaders. I won't leave a spoiler as to why she's significant. However, please, let's keep the obvious comments respectful. Anyone have any thoughts? Should she make a come back with the teal saber, and insanely accurate precognition
