Discussions The first piece of the EU that you owned?

I think my first bit of EU anything was the first issue of Legacy.

 

Hm, difficult question. In Sweden we had a Star Wars magazine that contained selected stories. But i think they started with Dark Empire.
Ican't remember if i played Dark Forces: Jedi Knight II at the same time.

 

For me it was Splinter of the Minds Eye back in the mid 80's, followed by some comics every now and then. When Heir to the Empire was released was when I went nuts for everything EU related. It was also the beginning of the time when I started my SW collection in earnest

 

Pretty sure it was YJK 1.

 

When this came out in 1978.

 

First Tales of the Jedi TPB. Made me go out and buy the Dark Lords of the Sith comics as they were coming out. Sold my individual comics, but still have that TPB.

 

First book was either shadows of the Empire, or Zorba the Hutts Revenge. not sure which.

for games it was the Super Star Wars trilogy

 

I believe it was X-Wing: Starfighters of Adumar

 

I think for me it was Dark Apprentice - as a birthday present.

 

I believe mine was Tales from Jabba's Palace. I actually had read all three of the Star Wars novels before seeing the films (this was right around the time of the THX releases in 1995).

 

Mine was Heir to the Empire.
Back in 1997, shortly after Christmas, when I got the SW trilogy on VHS.
There was a little leaflet in the box that showed some merchandise, and when I saw that there were books, too, I had to raid the next bookstore as soon as the shops opened again after Christmas.
At New Years Eve, I had already read the complete Thrawn Trilogy.
Needless to say, I was hooked.

 

SW Republic "blood and rain" comic

 

Lego Star Wars 2!

 

I'm pretty sure it was the Thrawn trilogy.

 

Croatian translation of the Heir to the Empire and original of one of the YJK books - incidentally one of the first novels (along with Harry Potter) that I read in English. So yeah, thanks SWEU, for giving incentive to a 11-year old to learn English. xD

 

Truce at Bakura - Had to know what happened after ROTJ..!

 

I don't own anything EU.

You should fix that.

 

Mine was Dark Empire, it was Number 4 of the second line of Star Wars comics in Sweden.
I was very confused by the art, ha ha

 

Dark Empire which is long gone...but it is all good since I cannot stand Palpatine.

 

Splinter of the Mind's Eye in the 80's and then Heir to the Empire in the early 90's. From Heir onwards I was hooked on the EU

 

KJA's Heirs of the Force and the rest of the series. But I really enjoyed Watson's series which I read next as I recall.

 

YJK #1 from a used book store, then Splinter of the Mind's Eye, and then Heir to the Empire much later. It was Heir that really got me into it though. First comic was the Quinlan Vos omnibus.

 

Not certain what order I got these, but here they are.



My mom bought me prophets of the darkside from a thrift store, and the boba fett one I got for my birthday.
