As a big Star Wars fan in the 90s, I was always sceptical about the idea that Boba Fett would have survived and could come back in the Expanded Universe.
But turns out, Boba Fett surviving was already established in the Marvel Comics (which the mainstream EU decided to completely ignore) in 1983, just half a year after Return of the Jedi.

The outfit is just too cool for fanfic writers with a license to not bring back immediately. πŸ˜„

"If I had a credit for every time the Star Wars EU introduced a new empire of vaguely reptilian aliens who appear from nowhere and threaten to conquer the whole galaxy, I would have three credits. Which isn't much, but it's weird that it happened three times in just seven years."

How many classic Star Wars ships from the Rebellion and New Republic eras were first introduced in the Thrawn Trilogy? It's just as many as we had got from the three movies.

Action-series Freighters
Assault Frigate
Carrack Cruiser
Dreadnaught Cruiser
Golan Defense Stations
Interdictor Cruiser
Lancer Frigate
PLY-3000*
Preybird Starfighter*
Skipray Blastboat*
Star Galeon*
Strike Cruiser

*maybe not as iconic, but still frequently seen in games throughout the 90s.

Trying to get my #GoodReads 2023 #ReadingChallenge shortlist sorted. I'm aiming to read 12 #books this year, not including #StarWarsEU or #ComicBooks. Very #SciFi heavy. I would like to branch out a bit, so open to suggestions for the last two spots, #readers!

Mara Jade, the Emperor's Hand. One of my favourite characters from the Star Wars EU.

I used some refs from @AdorkaStock for the pose - thank you!

Remember how in the old #starwarsEU, clones had the same name than the original person they were a clone of, except with an extra vowel?

I'm sure glad this dumb shit is gone...

I liked Trawn's trilogie but come on, Timothy, you're better than this!
