Did anybody read the Dark Horse "The Star Wars" series, which is based on GL's first draft, and shows why screenplays need iteration before actually making something?
― Stephen King's Threaderstarter (kingfish), Thursday, 28 August 2014 05:52 (ten years ago) link
was interested in it and thought about picking it up now that the trade is out but haven't gone for it, haven't read any other SW comics.

I've been thinking about dipping my toes into star wars comics, but haven't given much thought about where to start.

start here:
Star Wars: Legacy

Written by John Ostrander, takes place a century after Jedi.

damn that is some hot cartoon star wars
and if it's a century later, how come they got the exact same guns & shit?

Not exactly the same, apparently in 100 years the female guerilla fashion in the SW universe evolved from "practical and unisex" to "pointless high heels and boob windows", a la superhero comics.
― Tuomas, Thursday, 28 August 2014 11:13 (ten years ago) link
Yeah, the cover isn't really doing it for me. I might give it a chance at some point, but was hoping for something with a more 80s comic aesthetic. Any thoughts on the best runs from the "A Long Time Ago" Omnibus series? I see there are some Claremont and Simonson credits in there.

Yeah, the scenes in cargo bays or in the base on Hoth, where you really have the sense that people are clambering around these things, slapping their sides, etc. - CGI has nothing on that for making the movies feel real, and for making people love those vehicles, IMO.

Is there a favorite wookieepedia facts thread? I enjoyed this from their R5-series article:
Because of their inexpensive construction, however, droids of this series were plagued by a number of design flaws—most obviously, a sullen demeanor and sharp attitude resulting from deficiencies in the machine's personality matrix. Media outlets soon picked up on these errors: Mechtech Illustrated called the R5 model "a meter-tall stack of the worst business decisions you could possibly want."
