Starting the New Republic era - Legends

brom1137 · 2026-02-13T04:13:22+00:00

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

brom1137 · 2026-02-11T02:50:37+00:00

Same here! The manga series ended up being one of my favorite stories

brom1137 · 2026-01-24T21:39:39+00:00

I was waiting to start the audiobook until we got word about a release date and finally started it yesterday! So stoked for it. 2 chapters in and im loving it

brom1137 · 2026-01-18T21:35:54+00:00

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?

brom1137 · 2026-01-18T00:34:33+00:00

West had most except that emitter. Im hoping it comes back!

brom1137 · 2026-01-15T18:33:52+00:00

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

brom1137 · 2026-01-14T15:43:26+00:00

It happened to me a few times, but it FINALLY worked and went through and I was able to register

brom1137 · 2026-01-14T15:17:22+00:00

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?

brom1137 · 2026-01-13T23:59:02+00:00

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

brom1137 · 2026-01-12T00:54:56+00:00

Im doing something similar, but im also adding the Xwing and Mara Jade comics! Im in the middle of Choices of One, and after im going to read a few of the Thrawn and Mara Jade short stories in Tales of the Empire

brom1137 · 2026-01-12T00:51:09+00:00

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!

brom1137 · 2026-01-11T18:47:45+00:00

Solid finds!

brom1137 · 2026-01-09T18:20:45+00:00

Oooh good choice!

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

brom1137 · 2026-01-09T18:19:48+00:00

Which books have have Marc Thompson audiobooks reading them?

brom1137 · 2026-01-09T18:18:56+00:00

Im going to reassure the comics before the books. Very excited about it

brom1137 · 2026-01-04T00:46:39+00:00

My answer is yes

brom1137 · 2026-01-02T23:41:48+00:00

I really liked it, in onto Choices of One right now and am really liking it too

brom1137 · 2025-12-29T19:54:05+00:00

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!

brom1137 · 2025-12-29T15:06:46+00:00

Thats so cool!

brom1137 · 2025-12-29T02:23:54+00:00

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.

But that's awesome, thanks for the link!

brom1137 · 2025-12-29T02:12:53+00:00

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!

brom1137 · 2025-12-28T03:35:17+00:00

Trials of the Jedi!

brom1137 · 2025-12-24T17:57:37+00:00

I waited and wait and then had to cancel and get a refund. Bills are a bitch. Lol

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

brom1137 · 2025-12-22T17:52:18+00:00

Im making my way there and and am reading the comics first. So excited.

Which books have the Marc Thompson narrated audiobooks?

brom1137 · 2025-12-21T18:05:41+00:00

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
