And reminder it wasn't Disney's idea to start the EU over.
LucasFilm was already planning to do this if George had made his sequel movies, because we all know he would have ignored 99% of the Post-ROTJ EU.
According to Pablo Hidalgo at least. I would post proof, but he wipes his twitter regularly so people don't use his tweets as the basis of news articles.

Mine too, I wish he got a book (series) of his own
He had one.
Do you mean the dark forces book?
Yes.
Been reading Joiner King book 1 of the Swarm War Trilogy and currently in the middle of the book. story's real good and its been awhile since I was reading the regular older Star Wars stuff where last year and this year I was buy with the High Republic Light of the Jedi books.

Andor, in my mind, is basically a new adaptation of Kyle Katarn, minus the Force. He even uses a Bryar pistol, for crissake.
Those DF books are terrible. I've got them; W.C. Dietz should never have been allowed anywhere near the franchise, or that character. Some of the artwork is decent, though.
Yeah, except Kyle is far more charming, and far less irritable.
I enjoyed some parts, didn't enjoy others. Regardless, Katarn is a great character, and his canon status has no bearing.
I read The High Republic (Phase I) vol. 2: Jedi's End, which is the last book in the core comic book series for Phase I. I really enjoyed it, it had good writing and nice art, with some interesting developments that set things up for Phase III. I'm planning to check out the other Phase I comics, and at least the YA books before I move on to Phase II. I'm hoping to read the adult books too, but the library app I get them from limits the number of people who can borrow a book at one time, and every time the next one I have to read, The Rising Storm, is available I'm in the middle of reading something else and it's gone by the time I finish. I'm curious to see how the other books involve the big events we saw in the comics. Is there anything from Phase II that ties into Phase III? With the way this ended I'm tempted to just right to Phase III, but I'm assuming there's probably a reason Phase II jumped back in time the way it did, instead of following right on from the end of Phase I.
Not really, they're completely different from each other.
Okay.
OK, I'll probably go ahead and read Phase II first then.
I finished reading The Living Force. The Council members and their interactions with the regular citizens of Kwenn are the highlights. However, so much page space is given over to Zilastra and the pirates, and they are not very compelling. On balance, I give it a three out of five. I would read 1,000 pages of Yarael Poof and Ki-Adi-Mundi together; they were my favorites here.
