Darkman Fanpage posted:You just know that somebody out there had a breakdown when Disney declared the EU non-canon. 'Someone'? More like hundreds/thousands of them. Me, I'm a little bummed that some cool stories are being thrown out so we can do less ambitious stuff, but eh, poo poo happens.

I like that the artist straight up drew katana blades, considering that's what lightsabres are. (And I think Splinter of the Mind's Eye is the coolest title for a Star Wars thing ever, and am sad that it was wasted on a pretty bad book)

Actually, interesting query: What's Marvel/Disney/Lucasfilm policy on re-introducing things/characters from the old EU? I'm not clamouring for the return of Kyp Durron or the Darksaber or anything, but stuff like Winter and Mara Jade and Wraith Squadron were cool ideas that would make neat books/comics/vidya games. Is it a full-on "NO!" or a "You can have characters like them but you have to change the names and some details" or a "sure, if it fits our larger vision" situation?

There are still Thrawn action figures as well. I saw some in a TRU not too long ago.

To be fair, that Rebel pilot just looks kind of bland, not bad.

What's the benefit to Disney/Lucas to not use Marvel to produce comics in-house?
