... why not have other comics, just like we have tons of prequels edits.

I do have my answer to this question,

Star Wars belongs to the Fox and to Lucasfilm. Anything you will do with it don't BELONGS to you. I'm not saying everything you'll create will belong to you if you can sell it, but  TODAY your own ideas are more, so much more important than anyone else's ones. THAT really belongs to you.

Writting and drawing are  time consuming and need a right motivation to be pursued until final shape.

 

Don't mistake, I'd have dreamt to do something like this, but do the best stories achieved with Star Wars ? Certainly not.  Star Wars have a depth and a simplicity most of the followers - and Lucas himself- have lost, and that's just why nobody really did better in the kind.

 

Just my two cents, but really, if you are good at writting, please just write something new, even if you're very inspired by Star Wars.

Besides, as you certainly know, GL wouldn't have been able to make a so good story of his own but thanks to Joseph Campbell and his knowledge of myths and archetypes. Here's a great source about this: http://www.moongadget.com/origins/myth.html

 

PS: Yeah, I know we're on a Star Wars site, but really: please save your skills and make us dream with your own world and your own characters.
