    since I doubt Jaina is a lightsider ever since she murdered her brother not noticing he turned back to the light and was right all the time (despite some madness in between I blame on Ben like his idea of burning Kashyyyk nobody ever found out it was Ben's fault ever.. ahem what?)... yes there is one among the three ;)

    Those images are great. Tenel Ka and Jaina actually look close to their appropriate ages, and it's cool to see Allana growing up. I've always liked Corroney.

    We used to complain a lot about the lack of images from the early Legacy era, but look how many we have of Allana now.

    Love the images as well, and really like the art style. They look like they're from an upcoming comic book.

    Nice. Anji's certainly grown. Jaina seems to actually look like the daughter of Han and Leia, especially in that first pic where I get a strong Leia vibe. And if these images mean Allana actually has an adventure with her mother, then I definitely want to read it. More Jaina can't hurt either.

    Now, when will we get some decent pictures of Ben? And I'm not talking about headshots in essential guides. [face_frustrated]

    Jaina looks absolutely dumbfounded by that there jungle. You'd think that Yavin training would make her more jaded.

    Oh, for the day when hair colours were our biggest continuity worry.

    It's weird how TK is much smaller like in the background and her lightsaber is in front of Jaina. And I don't like Jaina to look THAT much like Leia.

    I think that's just the cover image -- a collage of story elements. It's the other pictures that are actual illustrations of in-story events.

    Oh, okay. I just wish Jaina looked more feminine, llike she did on the beautiful Japanese covers. Apparently the girl they have now is Corroney's GF.

    I don't know whether they're together or not, but yes -- the person Corroney's been using for Jaina for some time now is a particular costumer. That irritates me a lot, because characters should look how characters are supposed to (in this case, a mix of Han and Leia) and NOT like the artist's buddies. Tuckerization is one thing -- that's a time-honored sort of thing and a nice gesture to the fans. This, on the other hand, is inappropriate favoritism imo. If you want to make your friends canon -- by all means -- just make them original characters, or at LEAST secondary or tertiary characters (for instance, when Corroney based Halagad Ventor on Abel, that was totally cool, esp. since Ventor had no canonical description yet).

    I like seeing depictions of Jaina Solo, not random fan #5.

    Oh Ventor got pics in Domain of Evil, though from when he was older and if you squint a little he does resemble Peña on those.

    oops. Well, that undermines my point a little. :p

    Just goes to show what happens when I avoid reading a lot of WEG because I like it so much that once I've read it, I'll be sad that it's now gone. This is why I've never read 75% of the SWAJs that I own :p
