[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [qb] Well the silly "expanded universe" stuff after Heir To The Empire (lucas actually personally read and aproved that series) also includes the comics where Mace Windu is still alive and kicking post RTOJ. ...I just don't see Mace surviving the next movie. ....and all this stuff happened before: remember the Han Solo books? The Marvel Comics? All crap now. [/qb][/QUOTE]I haven't read SW comics in a long time, but in regards to the Mace Windu thing, I think you're probably referring something out of [i]Star Wars Tales[/i], a comic series that is part of the ongoing [i]Infinities[/i] line. This collection of material is printed under [URL=http://lobotomy.pleh.net/~flareupload/uploads/646/SWinfinities.gif]this logo[/URL] with the tagline "The World of Endless [i]Star Wars[/i] Possibilities" and was begun for the specific purpose of creating a forum for writers to do stories that didn't necessarily jive with the "overall continuity" (LucasBooks' term for 'the canon') of the SW universe. This is a unique part of the Expanded Universe in that it deals with things like alternate timelines or versions of events, farcial stories such as "Skippy the Jedi Droid" and the like, and in general scenarios that might or might not have "actually" happened. It's comparable to DC Comics' [i]Elseworlds[/i] line. So whether its stories conflict with the films or with other EU material is a non-issue, since it's not real anyway. And I'll stand by my earlier statement that the prequels haven't clashed irreconcilably with any part of the legitimate Expanded Universe. You should check out the new version of [i]The Essential Guide to Characters[/i] to see how they've managed to ingeniously smooth out some of the apparent minor discrepancies between sources while still maintaining believability. -[b]MMoM[/b] :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
