Agreed I liked how the Fett's were portrayed in the comics, especially the few appearances by Boba in Empire. What series from Dark Horse did you like the most?
Yeah, the Dark Horse years were great, really helped create more of the EU as much as the books, thought the art helps paint a picture.
And really, they help made the Fetts in general a little more what I expect from them than the movies ever shown.
Thanks I'll remember that, comics wise any series you recommend? I've read Rebellion, Empire, Rogue squadron, Dark empire, Crimson empire, and the two Mara Jade ones.
No no, it didn't deviate ANY. It is, quite literally, just the EXACT SAME STORY. Hero of war falls to dark side, sith create new government from old, rebels etc etc etc. blah blah blah. How anyone can read it and think it's anything other than sheer garbage is beyond me. I could write it in 10 minutes. Just load the original books, and do a search and replace for the names Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader to Jacin Solo/Darth Caedus, Old Republic to Galacitc Alliance, etc. Like no originality AT ALL. None. Total, complete lack of anything in any way resembling originality. They didn't even get rid of all the same old plot bunnies that strike at the same times. It's horrible.
I can't say I've read a comic series yet that I found to be worth the money. Most of them are poor writing at best, with plot bunnies abounding, and often HUGE plot holes that they simply ignore and cover with bunnies. Much like a lot of the lower quality EU novels, only with pictures.
From what I've read it may have been similar but I think that's what a lot of people want something that doesn't deviate too much so it doesn't feel like Star Wars.
Really, you guys liked Legacy? I thought it was a HORRIBLE story. Or, more properly, it was just Clone Wars + OT set years and years later with the names changed. EXACT SAME STORY. Totally boring, utter letdown, and complete rubbish IMO.
Read Legacy! While not perfect, it is incredibly ambitious as a series. In fact, my greatest criticism of the series was that it introduced too many interesting characters and didn't run long enough to have nearly enough time for everyone. Imp Knights are awesome, samurai Jedi return, Gar Stazi and Roan Fel are among the best characters in the entire EU in their class (fleet commander and statesman).

During the course of my moving around a lot I've gathered a lot of duplicates in my copies of most of my books and comics. If any in particular you seek, mention them to me and I might be able to help out.
Regards.
Agreed I'll miss the chance to buy those random ones that I never thought of buying, also missing legacy still which sucks. I hope they don't go that route with the old books, I'm still trying to acquire a lot of them, and can't afford to buy them all the way I did with this sale.
