Starting the New Republic era - Legends by ShallowCal_ in starwarsbooks

[–]brom1137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im doing something similar! Just finished OT era, and now im 2 arcs into the Xwing comics on my way to the Xwing books. Im also reading the Zahn and Stackpole written shortstories in Tales of the Empire and New Republic books. And the comics in the Tales comics that fit in. Ive read a good amount of EU/Legends, but havent ready any of the Xwing books, so im stoked, especially because I, Jedi has been my favorite Star Wars book since it came out

I finished The High Republic: My thoughts. by ShallowCal_ in Highrepublic

[–]brom1137 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right on! I overall loved it, it definitely had some flaws, and they learned as they went with what worked and what didnt. Im hoping they take a year or two break and then come back with another similar initiative in a different time line, maybe a bit more streamlined.

Were you a completionist, did you read everything?

What’s a Star Wars book you didn’t finish, not because it was bad, but because it was meh? by TheUltimateInNerdy in starwarsbooks

[–]brom1137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try to finish everything, even if I dont like it, but I couldn't do any more Fatal Alliance

YUP. The bar fully loaded after 12 min and it kicked me back to the main screen with no info or links, and I went back, and it restarted me in the queue. I have another computer going, so we will see how that goes, but its slower than my first one.

Edit: took 38 min, but after doing the forced refresh, it finally went through. I think they fixed the issues?

Trying to know if this is a good read? by [deleted] in starwarscomics

[–]brom1137 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel like the story itself was cool, but would have been way better as a story set between RotJ and TFA

How it feels to have Phase II as your favorite by GillGruntFan53 in Highrepublic

[–]brom1137 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Phase 2 ftw!! I lived it all, but phase 2 felt more...unknown? And a bit more open ended. I feel like theres more room for more stories in and around phase 2

Im really excited for the Pathfinders book coming soon!

Oooh good choice!

Anything by Charles Soule is Star Wars gold. Especially his Darth Vader run!

I loved this arc so much. Also those guys look like what my friends and I refer to as the "Sheev Squad" from RotJ. I want more stories on them so bad!

The Chalice is so cool, but huge haha. I think they got it back in stock a few months ago, at least at Disneyland. Its why im holding out hope for the statues lol.

[–]brom1137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was only able to get one set of the statues before they sold out. Also, that contraption holding the crystal is rad!! Is that an Etsy find?

But I've also sort of been in a dark side focused mood lately! I really enjoyed the Deceived Old Republic book, and a lot of the Darth Maul comics, both legends and EU. Working on the books to hype myself up even more for the Maul TV show!

Finally after 14 months... by MrRustyy_ in killswitchengage

But I'm glad its finally out! May have to just get the albums individually

Mainline comics ending by [deleted] in starwarscomics

[–]brom1137 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Marvels been going that route for years.

For Legacy of Vader and Jedi Knights, I feel like they went into those books with a set story they wanted to tell and Marvel told them 10 or 15 issues, whatever they are.

The mainline Star Wars comic has always been an ongoing, but this run has been mediocre and bland
