I would absolutely write a Star Wars comic or novel.

In fact, I know the approach I'd take, and the setting I'd use. It would be mental. Abso-fucking-lutely mental. And hilarious. Did I mention hilarious?

When I was younger, I thought that the Star Wars RPG campaign I helped to create in college would have been fantastic material for a novel, and I wrote up a short story based on it and submitted it to the magazine that West End Games published in the early 90s, the Star Wars Adventure Journal -- what if a Niven Ring existed in the GFFA, and what if the Rebels and Imperials found it (and fought over it) three years after Endor? There was a Jedi Master who had survived the Clone Wars (by hiding on the Ring) named Law-Ren Vanco, and it was a fun scenario. In retrospect, I'd probably change it to an Alderson Disc now.
