Spoliers for both Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter and Maul: Shadow Lord inbound

I just finished reading the non-canon Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter by Michael Reeves, and realized how much similarities there are between its protagonists and the protagonists of Maul: Shadow Lord.

Both stories (obviously) have Maul as the main character, as well as a Jedi Master and Padawan duo where the master dies (Eko Dio Daki and Devon Izzara in Maul: Shadow Lord, and Anoon Bondara and Darsha Assant in Shadow Hunter. Funnily enough the duos in both stories have a Twilek in either one of the roles). Both stories also have a human male belonging to neither the Sith or Jedi who has a droid companion and a son (Brander Lawson, Two Boots, and Rylee Lawson in Shadow Lord, and Lorn Pavan, I-5, and Jax in Shadow Hunter).

In the beginning of both stories, all three protagonists are doing there own thing in the process of attempting to achieve their own individual goals, before the circumstances of the story brings their paths together.

I’m not sure if this was an intentional parallel by the team behind Maul: Shadow Lord, or completely coincidental (a happy accident if you will), but it’s something I noticed that I thought would be neat to share here.

And in case anyone’s wondering, I only just checked my online player info now because I spent the vast majority of my time with the game completing its offline features (e.g. beating the grand prix cups, finding the red rings, winning against all the rivals, etc) since I got it under two months ago (unbelievable, I know right)

I’m aware Mara Jade’s one of the more popular Legends/Expanded Universe characters out there, and has essentially always had that status for almost as long as that continuity has been around, and thus, I’m wondering how her death was received by the fandom at the time it occurred back in 2007 when Legacy Of The Force: Sacrifice was published.

I found a wallet containing this BC Services and other cards belonging to someone in Surrey just outside the Fruiticana near the intersection of No. 5 and Cambie in Richmond; I’ve turned it into the cashier at Fruiticana for safekeeping

If you know the owner of this card, please reach out to them so they can reclaim it as soon as possible!

*Cross posted in the hopes the word will spread and that this wallet will be promptly retrieved by its owner*

I’m absolutely pumped about finding a copy of Heir to the Empire. Best part is 100% of the proceeds go towards supporting my city’s public library

You can’t imagine how giddy I was at the time after finding these. The second best part is that the proceeds from the sale support my city’s public library

I was scrolling on Facebook Marketplace not too long ago today, ans stumbled upon this listing for a new in box 60th anniversary Metallic Thomas. However the back of the box has a section saying it’s a promotional item not meant for resale, indicating that it was given out at some sort of event.

I’ve never seen this before, any answers/guesses on what it’s all about?

I saw all this through my window whilst eating dinner. Our furry friend here tipped over the cart and got it open; after I took this video they then moved on to the next Green-cart, sniffed it, but kept walking, seemingly finding nothing of value.

So yeah, remember to lock your Green-carts, especially since recycling collection day is tomorrow for some Richmondites

I’ve received numerous conflicting answers of where I can find compilations of the Clone Wars issues of the Republic Comics, ranging from the Marvel epic collections to the Dark Horse omnibuses, but I never got a straight, definitive answer.

I’m hoping this post will serve as a definitive source with a concrete answer for someone like me who’s looking for compilations of the Clone Wars issues from the Republic Comics

As I’ve come to learn on this sub-Reddit, the early Legacy era storylines are some of the more divisive novels in the Expanded Universe in part due to the decisions made by Troy Denning and the other authors who spearheaded it.

I’m wondering how would this early played out if its storylines were written by some of the E.U’s more notable authors (e.g. Timothy Zahn, James Luceno, and Mattew Stover) and if it would’ve ultimately impacted how these storylines are viewed and perceived by fans

Sound off in the comments people, I’d love to hear what you all think
