There is one thing that Star Wars fans can agree on when it comes to Legends. That being that Legends General Grievous is an absolute beast and his entrance is more akin to a horror movie monster than an actual villain. More like a force of nature than a foe that could be beaten. Plus, his origin actual makes his actions and hatred of Jedi understandable.

If you're looking for comics, the Knights of the Old Republic following the padawan massacre and Zayne Carrick is a fantastic run. I think I go and give a few of these a read (already read the Thrawn trilogy) after I complete Wheel of Time in the next few weeks (almost done with Towers of Midnight, and A Memory of Light remaining).

I love the old republic era, im happy bioware still able to create new content for their swtor games ^^ Also like that in legends the empire was still around for decades before coming to terms with the new republic and had their own official territory.

The Thrawn Trilogy is one of my absolute favorite trilogy of books ever. Since it introduced Mara Jade who is my favorite legend’s character in the first book Heir to the Empire I have a real soft spot for it. Some other great legend reads are Rouge Planet, the Prequel Trilogy novelizations (Ep. III by far the best), Darth Plagueis, Darth Maul Shadow Hunter, Cloak of Deception, Kenobi, Labyrinth of Evil, and Dark Lord the Rise of Vader. So far I’ve only read Master and Apprentice from the new canon which was excellent and I’m going to start on Brotherhood soon.

Awesome to see some love for the old EU/“Legends” from you man! Great picks for sure! Personally my favorite of the OG Thrawn Trilogy is Last Command for sure, since that’s when we see the fruits of his campaign and all the big arcs reach a conclusion. Especially Luke and Mara’s first meeting and the evolution of their relationship. Then after that there’s Hand of Thrawn and the New Jedi Order series which is a whole rabbit hole. For the Old Republic, my favorite piece of media from it is actually the comics starring Zayne Carrick, which is where that Revan scene comes from. Zayne’s a lot more of an underdog with a story that starts tragic but ends hopeful. Some interesting supporting characters and story. The games are all great for sure too though. Prequel era has a LOT of great stuff all around, especially with Clone Wars which actually has its own timeline Pre-TCW retocons that’s different but just as good. Another huge rabbit hole here with the 2003 animated series, Republic comics, Republic Commando stuff, then other novels like Shatterpoint, Dark Rendezvous and the big trilogy of Labyrinth of Evil, the Revenge of the Sith novelization and Dark Lord: Rise of Darth Vader. The last three especially are a must with how they call back to all the OG Clone Wars stories in Legends and pay them off while leading into and telling the story of ROTS and what happens immediately after.

@popculturewatchtower8945 Жыл бұрын

Man my top 5 would probably be, Revan, Master and Apprentice, Black spire outpost(a surprise to be sure but a welcome one), Shadow of the Sith and High Republic Into the Dark. Now it changes a lot this is just right now.

Thrawn is definitely a top choice, but favorite overall is probably the Yuuzhan Vong arc in spite of some of the tropes it falls back on I find the concept of an extragalactic race which refuses to bend to the rules of the Star Wars galaxy to be an amazing idea that probably should have been episodes 7-9

@richardhiggins8735 Жыл бұрын

Completely agree! The Yuuzhan Vong series, which led to Darth Caidus & Jaina slaying her twin was absolutely captivating!

I've read all of them. Own all but the last three. Technically, the first four story arcs mentioned are still canon on the grounds that they were never replaced by anything, and their stories are referenced by the current canon.

Legends took advantage of the opportunity to expand the star wars universe, and it did. Disney just threw all that lore away for their "creative freedom" but all they did was make a huge mess and now they're working to fix the mess they created which in my opinion, they'll never do. In the process, they're making even more messes like kenobi and the book of boba fett.
