ScottyJSno posted:Does Asoka explicitly know that Padme was Luke's father? I mean it might be pretty obvious in retrospect, but I didn't watch any clone cartoons. Maybe Padme managed to keep it on the down low. Like she wanted to. I didn't know that Padme was Luke's Father. Man that scene in ESB was weird

All this Xizor Thrawn talk makes me think of Solo's 11, even though neither actually show in it

Casimir Radon posted:Mercy Kill is set after LOTF, ties into it pretty heavily, and suffers for it. It has its good points, but really gets dragged down by association with one the worst series. On the other hand, middle aged gamoreon strip show and yes that's an actual highlight.

Arquinsiel posted:The timeline stops in 140 ABY. The comics kept breaking new ground long after the novels had given up and gone back to "what if Han Solo... before he met Luke... did a heist?" forever. Hey that's not fair. He did the heist right after ANH (I like Solo's11 ok?)

I finally finally read Specter of the Past and it is hilarious how Zann shits over the shittiest parts of the EU. Can't wait to read Visions of the Future. Hope it continues

Hey, dunno if I asked this, but what's the thread's thoughts on I, personally, really enjoy it. It has enough Zahn-isms, but no character is really omnipowerful and omnipotent. Also, lol at the reference to another Lucas/Ford movie.

Casimir Radon posted:One of the funny things about Scoundrels is it moves the beginning of the Han/Lando feud even closer to ESB. Originally it seems like it was implied that losing the Falcon to Han was the start, then Crispin has the Ylesia liberation end up with all the smugglers Han brought in getting ripped off, then a comic has it be the Yavin Vassilika affair start it. Zahn has Lando kind of, if not forgive him for these past issues, at least grit his teeth because he needs some money. But it makes ESB even better character wise. From Han's POV Lando had forgiven him for a lot of bullshit over the years so I am sure he will this time now that I am in serious poo poo. From Lando's POV is that it's a piling up of all of Han's BS and now this final one is threatening to destroy his home and community he build by himself and all he loves.

So a side note of connecting everything, the female sith in Dark Forces 2, Serris, was retconned to be Cronal's daughter. And then it gets seriously gross and lovely.

fartknocker posted:I just finished the NJO as a conclusion to an absurdly long reread of much of the old EU that took three loving years. It was the first time I’d done the entire series start to finish, as I knew the overall plot but hadn’t read all 19 books, and I gotta say, I generally liked it overall. It wasn’t perfect by any means, but I think it ultimately came together okay enough for my dumb Star Wars loving brain. Yeah, Mercy Kill is what I consider the end point of the entire EU. Also, man, which books still hold up from NJO, and which are as trash as I think. Pretty sure Traitor is still gold standard, and of course the Allston duology

For instance here om Earth we say, for example, the Japanese Alphabet or the Roman Alphabet etc. Alphabet is more a collection of letters instead of a language
