    maybe because i like the books

    and there is nothing "suicidal" about such a "strategy", Disney will do what they do for very sound reasons . . . such a huge and experienced business.

    I wonder if Marvel will ignore everything except for "Marvel Star Wars".

    If this results in Jaxxon making a comeback, I might just be okay with it.

    Or not. But still.

    Picture it: a Star Wars EU where all comics are wiped except for Marvel Star Wars, and all novels except for Jedi Prince. Quality>>>>quantity.

    Kiro might get his own stories, but it is still a no for me.

    It gets its own limited collectors edition. Contains over two hours of deleted scenes, including over 30 rousing performances by Jefferson Starship, a written recipe for viewers at home to cook what Malla so skillfully creates (along with over 50 other delightful recipes, wookiee hair included), optional subtitles (in Shyriiwook of course, and your very own Lumpy plush doll.

    Wookiee porn...? :confused:

    Is that like Beldorion's formidable library of Huttese pornography or is it worse?

    You've never seen the Holiday Special??







    (yeah, I think this is actually Mark Hamill)





    And (part of) what you've been waiting for:





    Yes, this really did happen. And someone thought this was a good idea. Now we pay the price.

    The Holliday Special was produced by Daalas holofaker lover around 14 ABY for Beldorion after they watched Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor together smelling a business plan beyond Base Delta Zeroing people with a Stardestroyer. Interviewing the accurate historian Voren Naal, some hoojibs as well as Jaxxon, they intended to represent the events as they happened with a twist and massproduced the Holliday Special on Zeltros with bad matte paintings and lookalikes of the heroes, substituting some even with Human Replica Droids that were a leftover of the Mofference and Triclops/Trioculus plan to replace Leia and others with sexbots with Lasereyes. While the HRD could not hit a target in front of it, it was able to sing and thus employed in that role.
    Sadly Daalas plan backfired like all of her plans. Only sold in Hutt Space successfully, they lost the holofaker license as Rotta the Hutt took over the holoporn business and forced her to return to what she did best: Base Delta Zero.

    Indeed. And yes, that is Luke. He just felt like wearing lots and lots of synthflesh on his face. :p.
