Lifelong STAR WARS fan here - first issue was pretty good, have high hopes for Gillen's VADER. My question is whether or not you plan to stick close to the original trilogy for the foreseeable future? I realize some of this might be down to what Lucasfilm / Disney want spotlit in the build-up to the new films, but I hope we might see some projects in the prequel era at some point.
Anonymous askedThis is much more a question for Jordan White.
So far, of the four projects we’ve announced, three of them are set during the original trilogy. The idea there is that we want to first establish a sort of core line for Star Wars—the way the X-Men line or Avengers line have a core of books that can interact with each other, and readers can read some or all of them. Things that happen in one book can echo through the other, so to speak.
But the fourth book, Kanan, is set between the trilogies for the most part—it starts with the story of how Kanan survived order 66.
I look very much forward to doing stories set in the prequel era—I have a couple of ideas for series I think would fit really well there. But we have nothing to announce just yet.
