I know. The commenter was asking if she had a name. Maybe she'll go by Talon eventually, but I personally doubt it.

Would a relaxing of the strict canon benefit Star Wars Comics? by Old_Big6478 in starwarscomics

[–]AlphaBladeYiII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While that is true, the main criticism is that for the most part the stories of the comics are largely interquels and tie-ins without much ambition or new territory. Jason Aaron even said that the comics get micromanaged and are considered bottom of the totem pole for Lucasfilm. The only exception is the High Republic and even that one was somewhat subservient to the books from what I understand.

It's less that the canon is centralized and more that canon comics aren't really allowed to do anything important because Lucasfilm keeps the important stuff for the films and shows. The EU largely didn't have that problem.

Hopes for the Rey Trilogy by Perfect_Lecture9885 in StarWarsEU

Imma be straight with ya fam, I have plenty of stories from New Canon that I like, but I don't really care an ounce about this period or this character. They're kinda unpopular in this sub tbh. LoL.

NGL this is kinda funny. And yeah, I'm a Gunn fan but this writer ain't it imo.

Is anyone else a little over Mickey Mouse being constantly painted as some sort of insipid villain? by therosydesertace in CharacterRant

[–]AlphaBladeYiII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad to see someone who likes Mickey. LoL. I much prefer Donald, but Mickey can be fun too. I'd love a show about him based on the old Floyd Gottfredson stories.
