That untrue unfortunetely HaydenisnotVAder As Lucas has Included The clone Wars 3D cartoon in the G-canon (george lucas canon) , as well as the force unleashed game.  and the upcoming tv show.

The genddy series that was better than the third one is not considered canon since Lucas gave him creative control and now he has control over the new one.  The guy he hired this time is a huge star wars nerd, so he finds it hard to criticize George.  It is as if George is a god and this guy is his diciple,lol.  Dave Filoni rymes with baloney.

It is too bad Airbender was a decent show, but of course Lucas did not have final say over that show.  Everything he has had his hands in in recent years is a dissaster.  From the special editions, prequels, to 2008 clone wars movie and Indiana Jones IV and Force unleashed all complete garbage.

He got his hands over the Eu and ruined both the NJO and the Legacy novel series.  This guy destroys not only his work but the work of others.  But of course it does not matter if Timothy Zahn wrote better Star Wars than George Lucas since as a work for hire author Lucas ends up owning the created characters and can shit all over them as he desires.

Get this TFN posted a link to an interview where Tim Zahn was mad that Lucas had Mara Killed off, but he of course used polite talk cause he has to work in the industry.  But i could see just how pissed he was.

When they killed my favorite expanded universe character i boycotted all the novels from there on out, up until then form the bantam era onward i had bought every book featuring Luke's adventures.  When it became clear they were going to rehash the poorly planned and executed prequels i wanted my money back.

The Legacy comics are an interesting take on the Star Wars universe, but could just as easily been generic sci fi since they have almost zero resemblance to the original movies.  In fact the anti heroes and angst emo nonsense must be taken from the prequel movies. Cade looks like some rock and roll reject band member and is a druggie.  Luke Skywalkers descendant is adicted to death sticks, sits around and broods and is a overal douchebag. He's more like Hayden Anakin than Luke, it would be like if the three prequels were about crack addled ani who becomes a sith to get his fix.
