I remember that (now that you reminded me) 😉 I probably caught the reference at the time or at least remember someone here discussing it.

I should point out that I’m fine with call-backs or name checks to the other films. I would just rather it be an actual stand-alone. This is our first real chance to break away from the contaminated Lucas franchise and really get another Star Wars adventure.

It could be something actually in the vein of The Adventures Of Luke Starkiller, even when he’s not in it. The Goodwin & Williamson strips ran every day for six years and took place all over the galaxy, with a myriad of non-film characters and story lines. The same with the Daley and Zahn novels, plus probably tons I haven’t read.

The fan base has shown itself to be more than fine with moving off Tatooine and away from Vader & Co. This could have been our chance to finally put Lucas behind us. Maybe Bingo’s idea of Ben in exile will be that film. Ewan is the perfect age for a sort of middle of Ben’s story, hopefully between the Prequels and later on Tatooine.

Maybe I should just stick to EU. 😉
