I'd prefer if the one-offs were just that- One-off stories about characters and places we haven't seen and not prequels or origin stories about characters we already know.

Ah, a Tales of the Mos Eisley Cantina sort of job?

Or the Star Wars Tales comics?

That could be pretty good. There are some decent stories in those books.

But then again, we could be treated to the saga of how IG-88 became DSII.

Or R5-D4- the Jedi Astromech droid who saved the galaxy- by shorting out his perfectly fine motivator.
