Get your fill of sci-fi, science, and mockery of stupid ideas

Well, to be fair, I have been slowly working on that story for quite some time. It's been on the 'back burner' as it were. Just seemed a good time to pull it out.its cool, there seems to be enough differences between your story and mine that im going to go ahead with it.
I think this is FAR worse than anything in DE. The Empire in DE was just the remnants of the original Empire, which was realistically still kicking around several years after Endor. The Deep Core is described as an uninhabited region, almost as obscure as the Outer Rim. There was a bunch of stupid crap in DE, but some of these ideas actually made sense.Darth Wong wrote:To be quite brutally honest, this is really no worse than some of the previous comicbook escapades. Come on, who did not groan when finding out that Palpatine reincarnated himself into a backup Empire at Byss that had somehow stayed hidden and passive all that time? That's at least as retarded as anything we're seeing here.
And that new Sith appears to be a cross between Aayla Secura and Darth Maul. Fanboys are gonna love this.VT-16 wrote:Ladies and gentlemen, Quinlan Vos 2.0

So let me get this straight. The Sith lie in wait for a thousand years, hiding their presence from the Republic, until finally they strike to destroy the Jedi and bring about the Empire. But between the redemption of the fallen Anakin Skywalker, and the efforts of his son Luke, the Sith are destroyed and democracy restored.
Whoops, hold the phone, there's still money to be made. I meant to say that the Empire was merely interrupted for a little while, and that the Sith were simply delayed for about one-tenth the time they spent lying in wait in the first place. Yeah, that's more like it.
Good job, too, on the "Skywalker, to the EXTREME with rad tattoos!" and the "Let's make Darth Maul a woman in a bikini!" character designs. Very tasteful. The only reason anyone could possibly object to this entire endeavor is because they fear what they don't understand, and not because it's blatantly exploiting the source material to sell comic books to teenage boys.
Good show.

Evil Empire, Jedi being hunted down, and A New...I mean one final hope.Set more than a century after the events of Return of the Jedi, Legacy is set in a galaxy held in thrall by a resurgent Empire seeking to destroy the last of the Jedi. Even as their power is failing, the Jedi hold onto one final hope: the last remaining heir to the Skywalker legacy.
Make no mistake about it, they basically pushed the reset button on us.You can do it (Tell me more!), assuming you aren't banned for having an opinion in the meantime.LordShaithis wrote:I will if MRDOD doesn't want to do so himself.

Randy Stradly said that the OS announcement was incorrect; apparently this new Empire is at odds with the "new evil" (Sith) and may not be hunting the Jedi.More than a hundred years have passed since the events in Return of the Jedi and the days of the New Jedi Order. There is a new evil gripping the galaxy, shattering a resurgent Empire and seeking to destroy the last of the Jedi. Even as their power is failing, the Jedi hold to one final hope: the last remaining heir to the Skywalker legacy.

Like I said, I still haven't read the actual comic yet, but it actually looks almost like the new Empire is the descendant of the Empire of the Hand rather than the Imperial Remnant proper, given the influences of the Fels, the 501st, and the appeareance of several Chiss in previews. Or I could be completely off base.-Ossus was the first planet that was permitted to experiment with Vong terraforming to restore a previouslyd evastated planet.

You know, as many people have said before, I don't mind rough similarities in technology and style; in a galatic civilization as long-lived as the SW one, things realistically have to stay static for a long time (hell, civilian cargo ships should have resale value for at least a century). Of course, that does limit the originality a good setting can have...Vympel wrote:
