I thought so as well when I first saw it, but as I mentioned in the FR Benella index it actually looks a lot like Hayden does in this picture:

Saw that cover in the Lit. forums a week or so ago... I'm rather disappointed in it. I dunno if that comic he was in was canon or not, but thats what I always pictured him as. This picture looks rather dodgy IMO

It was not canon.

But yes, Zahn is a bloody legend

I know there's a spoiler warning on the thread title, but if you find out before I get to read it, please black it out wink

Not having read any of NJO these names don't mean much to me anyway thinking , but I'm really digging the Legacy series.

And I just noticed Rav has a wooden leg (well, a metal leg, but its stereotypical pirate laugh )

Allegiance was great !

Not overly impressed with how they portrayed Mara though...
Resourceful but soft.....

As for Legacy one of the best storylines for a comic (graphic novel wink )
That i've read to date....

not enjoying Allegiance all that much to be honest. 100 pages in & the whole "Rogue Stormtroopers" concept is a little silly. Oops I didn't mean to kill him...hey, why don't we all join you & be fugitives of the Empire ?!!

Strange !!

I do like the way that he (Zahn) has a good grip on the whole ( hate to say it) whiny Luke & the tension between Han & Leia .... & the Mara thing seems , well...pointless.

Perhaps when I get further it will get better

Not raining on your parade, Dave, but I quite enjoyed Allegience...for 2 reasons:

1. It's Zahn (**fondly remembers the Thrawn Trilogy**)

2. It's set in the Classic Universe

I pine for the classic ea...'twas a nice little 'romp'....

Finally got "sacrifice" ($20...thanx Amazon.com!!!) and got the Hardcover 'Making of Star Wars' at the same time - $100 including expedited shipping ..took 6 days..

Verrrrrry happy.......

NOT impressed with the Mando **** diverting the storyline......
