High Republic kinda needs a self contained, long running mg series like YJK or the Jedi quest books that just follows a whole bunch of padawans doing their thing and hanging around an outpost temple

First look at the new Return of the Jedi Visual Guide, written by the same team that made The Mandalorian Visual Guide
English
@soerlys Only post Geonosis… this is probably from Traviss misreading or being misinformed about something from Republic 50 where the ARCs were frozen until the invasion of Kamino
English
they’re just frozen down in between assignments??

Saw this today and thought I'd add this to the conversation. Here's the transcript of an interview where Veitch is very clearly taking credit for Heir to the Empire. This man's bizarre ego contest against Timothy Zahn was really weird.

@EFFEXWH0RE @zweiwalker89607 I wish I liked it. The art is pretty good, and there’s some fun and cool stuff thrown around. I just think the story and writing is absolute dog shit and Tom Veitch by all accounts was very unprofessional.

I’m gonna riot
What is even the fucking point of these if they’re not gonna try?

Just received. I've just had a quick look at it. It mostly names ... weapons. Yes, it names a handful of characters but a lot of them are still unnamed. Even Ankeefo's name (the Snivvian bartender from Adelphi) is reversed to 'Snivvian Bartender'.

The concept of Tol Skorrr seeing Dooku in his jammies had made me giggle

Crazy how the Nightsisters attack Dooku when Kadrian Sey and Tol Skorr are supposed to be his bodyguards 😭😭 Like did they have the day off?
English
@SpinoZoo174 Yes should be actually dead, I’ve just been an idiot
(Tol should definitely be around tho)
English
@bones4918 Kadrian would be dead by this point in the timeline wouldn’t she?

@MysticBuilds44 I agree, TCW’s design feels very fragile imo
English
I wasn't much of a fan of TCW's redesign of the Starfighter, I wish they kept it as sleek as the original design

TCW finally using Ventress’ most iconic costume and star fighter in the episode where she leaves the Separatists is never not gonna annoy me tbh
English
@Xenotoast I’m just confused why the chose to introduce it all tbh
English
@bones4918 I’m not as bothered by the costume since it’s an animation hassle

@bones4918 Omg I read this book like 8 years ago and remembered thinking the council just did not feel like real characters
English
this is the guy behind the (arguably) most important sw canon book trilogy and the internet archive lawsuit btw

I maintain a collection. Starting with some classics:

@jadexskywalker I’ve read it before and it just takes the wind out of my sails every time
English
@bones4918 I dropped this book. I really like Asajj in both CWMMP and TCW, I can take different interpretations of characters, but I just find this interpretation of Quinlan absolutely infuriating on his own. I hate him. He gets on my nerves and reading him is worse than watching.
English
Okay on revisit…
We might need to adjust the timeline to make Quin a completely new character…
English
Oh I *hate* how they write his relationship with Obi-Wan holy shit
English
@soerlys They’re my favourite Star Wars books… Traviss is… a problem
English
heard some good things about these books, some not-so-good things about the author

What’s crazy is the novelisation for all intents and purposes keeps the nonsensical style of the fight, but the narration manages to frame it as more climactic
RednBlackSalamander@9mmballpoint
Because it turned what was supposed to be a dark and tragic moment into a 20 minute gymnastics rave
