God is nothing but a big pile of apathy. Satan is who you go to when you need something done.

Why don’t you just ask your mom to do it?

Pfft. My mother knows no one. Besides, I wouldn’t want to be set up with any girl she’d deem appropriate, anyway.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he wasn’t a great big pansy.

YES! A new comic that I’m actually interested in.

I’m really glad this is part of Current Canon and not part of LEGENDS. But it’d be helpful if there are timeline guides for the Current Canon of course.
Just with the current MARVEL Comics, the Del Rey Books, REBELS, THE CLONE WARS including THE CLONE WARS LEGACY, and I don’t think I care that much about the Young Adult novels.
The VADER DOWN storyline was quite well made. Also hoping there’ll be another comic which takes place at least 10,000-25,000 BBY.
Because I’ve been replaying Knights of the Old Republic I & II - The Sith Lords with a ton of the mods, including the Cut Content Restored and the 1080p/greater support. Best part of LEGENDS canon, IMO.

I am a fan of the original trilogy of Star Wars. I think, that it is the best ever! I had a task to write an essay on the topic: “My favourite film”. I was busy, so I decided to order an essay online. <a href="http://best-essays-writers.com"> find more information </a> about this here.

If I could, I’d track you down and destroy every computer you own/have access to.

The Knights of the Old Republic was a great comic series.

Yeah but it’s now LEGENDS canon. How many issues did it run for though? I have 52 issues of them on my server.

Really hoping MARVEL will have some Infinities-style mini-series which uses abandoned concepts and earlier drafts of scripts for comics. The ones which they might be unsure could be part of the A STAR WARS Story movie anthology series. Abandoned concepts for video games and more.
Also comic book adaptations of the Current Canon Del Rey books would be nice.

So are both of the games. Even SWTOR is non-canon and they’re still producing new story content for it.

It’s best not to worry about what is or isn’t canon. Just search out the most entertaining and enjoyable material and forget the rest.

Speak for yourself, I actually enjoy agonizing over canonicity. The convoluted spider web of the overall thing is more important to me than the entertainment factor of any particular story. If a canon story is good, so much the better, but there’s this other more objective seeming value that comes from the idea that something “counts”. The fact that it’s all one system appeals to me enough that I’m willing to put up with a lot, because even the things that suck bring new minutiae to the table to be scrutinized and debated. I’ll admit it can feel kind of masochistic at times, but hey, I’m a consenting adult. I think it’s a huge part of what draws me towards these sprawling fictional universe franchises in the first place, and it’s probably why I never felt any desire to dabble in fan fiction.

Anyway, I read the last two parts of Vader Down today and I’m extremely curious to see what happens next with regards to Dr. Aphra.

I’m glad I can forget about the Yuuzhan Vong now since to me they were one of the most less desired aspects regarding LEGENDS canon.

The Force Awakens #1 cover art:

Interested in seeing how this adaptation plays out. Might have to pick up the collected edition when it becomes available.

The Falcon looks weird, (the dish is missing too) and those are OT troopers lying on the ground. How the heck can you not have screen accurate refs for drawing the ships in 2016? The old Marvel comic did it better with a lot less reference material handy.

It looks more like one of those goofy foreign posters from the 70’s.

Where were you in '77?

Rey’s face looks especially weird. It looks like someone hit her with a shovel a few times.

This is Star Wars, not Willow.

She looks Asian – Asian and a fan of pink lipstick.

Willow could take place somewhere in the SW universe for all we know. 😉

Indeed.

That’s an OT stormtrooper as well. Man, this is a weird cover.

Faces with weird duck lips? I’ll go out on a limb and say this art is by Esad Ribic (Secret Wars 2015).
