    Why am I more excited about this than I was when I heard about Episode VII?

    Dark Horse, when are you not cool?

    Can you point us to where? His profile says he's only posted twice, both of which can be found here and neither of which say it's a monthly... [face_thinking]

    Theirs always someone who throws a monkey in the wrench by saying ''With the possibility of the Star Wars comics licence moving back to Marvel, due to Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm, this series may not be around for very long'' .... I really hope that's not the case, but then again who knows [face_dunno]

    It's not unprecedented for one series to start in one company and continuie in another. Not saying Disney would do that, either way Dark Horse will have a good 2 and half years of comics to sell. So Legacy will have a decent run.

    Also interesting that the heirs of Siegal and Shuster got some of the rights back to Superman they could actually sell to Marvel and Marvel could make Superman comics. Nothing to do with Star Wars, but mind blowing idea regardless. :)

    Drawing Mon Cals is a plus in my book, as you might imagine. [face_batting]

    Why Would Disney give Marvel Star Wars? they usually dont interfare with individual properties.

    After all is marvel publishing Ducktales, or Darkwing Duck, Gargoyles, or Micky Mouse?

    that wasn rhetorical, I am actually asking.

    Be interesting to see where this fits relative to First Legacy. At minimum Cade has to be Great Grandson of Luke so these could be during the same time or it could be earlier.

    If Allana is the solo's grand daughter, her children would be their Great grand children, and their chidren great great grand children. Solo's tend to have kids young, Mid twenties... As Jacen was what 24 when Allana was born? and Leia was...around the same age? or slightly younger?

    The Legacy series is the only comic series I respect in Star Wars, highly.

    First Episode VII announced, then this?!? It's like Star Wars is back on a high. For a fan, this is amazing news. Though I'm no where near as shocked as I was when the ST was announced two months ago.

    Leia's not a Solo, and Jaina and Han are outliers. I don't think there's such a trend.

    Dave Wilkins's signature is awesome. The W looks like Wolverine had something to say about the D.

    Also, the guy in the top left totally looks like Baron. I'm thinking Hav may be right about him being Fel II and the protagonist being Roan's sister. Will we get a look at the pre-Sith-Imperial War galaxy? I hope so; Dark Horse would do so much better with that era than would Del Rey.

    Ok so we still have no idea where Cade is in the family tree? We cant even math it out?

    True enough Leia is not a Solo, But "Da POWHA" isnt from Han's....line its from Leia's. Han could be seen as an Everyman, he has become neither a Statesman, or a great lord of Finance (Like Lando), he is a simple adventurer. I mean, besides being "oh thats neet" why is it theamaticly necessary that this new lead is Han's decendent?

    edit: Sure, but then it's the Skywalker legacy that Leia's carrying. And even then, Luke had a child fairly late.

    Basically I don't think you can use two characters and call it a trend with all of these things that disprove the alleged tendency.

    i wonder if they will follow the formula for older characters appearing sporadically like Luke did in the Original Legacy Comic. i wouldn't mind seeing at least ONE Skywalker appearing.

    Hopefully things can now be rectified by Luke waking up and telling Ben he had the craziest dream.
