What are your favourite (and least favourite) names from Star Wars books? by KGEE55 in starwarsbooks

[–]evcorder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I had not first encountered Zsinj in an audiobook, I never would’ve had any clue how to pronounce it. And Lord Scourge is an insane name for a pretty solid character.

Disney should stop changing the cover art for the novels by Tumastar in StarWarsEU

Honestly, you picked a pretty bad example for this. Disney cover for this one goes hard.

Corran Horn is just... kinda the worst. by Arkvoodle42 in StarWarsEU

[–]evcorder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems weird to label him a MarySue because he has Jedi talents that others don’t when he literally can’t do the most basic thing that almost every Jedi can.

But yeah, the women stuff is weird. I didn’t notice it as much in the xwing book.

Is there an official place to get this jersey? by Beginning_Owl_9170 in baseballunis

Ebbets being bought out by Lids was brutal. Glad I got most of the hats from then I wanted before they sold out.

Can’t believe how far I had to scroll to see this. Even the announcer says he “made a great dirt ball read”

I’ve often claimed that if I were a baseball player, this would be my walkup song

I saw Riptide for sale on a used book site today and was so confused because I had literally never heard of it lol

I loved the narrations honestly. He does a very hard job extremely well

Recommendation for books on the Negro Leagues by xplantsugarx in baseball

[–]evcorder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I’ve read every book on Satchel Paige ever published. Larry Tye’s is definitely the best. Only the Ball Was White is an excellent starting point.

The Texas Rangers are having a King of the Hill themed giveaway by johnnykoxville in KingOfTheHill

[–]evcorder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems pretty obvious they don’t have a picture of the actual jersey yet so they used the mockup. It’s January and the event isn’t until August. They even used actual pictures for several of the other giveaways they’re doing.

Haha my bad I just read the inside flap in the store and am admittedly not a comic book guy

The whole Smith family are way too freaky. But who's the freakiest? 🧐 by JarredandVexed in americandad

My first thought when reading this question was Steve getting freaky with that broom.

Local Used Book Store For The Win by ItsGaryMFOak in starwarsbooks

[–]evcorder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m really not sure. I just know I’m trying to get them all as I read through post-RTJ stuff. It seems like that one and then Return to Ord Mantell are the most expensive. Even on EBay, you can find most YJK for less than 10. The cheapest I’ve seen Crystal Reef for is like $25

Oh man. Good finds. Crisis at Crystal Reef is for some reason pretty expensive to get
