Somewhere on some site I visit frequently, someone posted a link to a bunch of Clone Wars screencaps, even from the older microseries. This is sorely needed for icon making fun! If any of you remember where that link is, please let me know.

I hate being old and senile :/.

Dark Horse announced today that it has a new series set during the Old Republic that will debut this fall. Starring a female Jedi in an era where there were lots of Sith, this is unique in that there will be tie-in novels with Del Rey as well. Read the whole press release here:

I guess it all depends on the writing and if they can make this new character interesting. I'm comme-ci, comme-ca about Old Republic era EU. Yes it does allow for a lot more breathing room than the movie era stories. Sometimes there are great stories set during that era. The Tales of the Jedi series back in the '90s come to mind. Sometimes, the stories aren't all that interesting and the characters feel like sloppy seconds next to the film characters we all know and love.

I would however like to see a hero/ine who for once is about the ideals of the SW saga. Not somebody perfect, mind you but somebody along the lines of a Nomi Sunrider or an Ahsoka Tano. Somebody to cheer for. It seems like to me we haven't seen a character like that in a long time in the expanded universe.
