are you there, god? it's me, mara.

[snaphiss]

hi there, my name is pel! you can find me at wehwalt or hanging upside down in a cave. whichever's easiest.

today i'm bringing you #1 angry ex-fascist, mara jade^*, from the star wars continuity respectable people don't talk about. that's right, legends, where luke has a clone named luuke and han solo has an evil identical cousin with a mustache. it's very serious. please take it seriously.

mara is angry, impetuous, rude, and she's got a heart of gold. unfortunately, she keeps said heart in a jar on her desk. for those of you familiar with the eu, i offer my sincerest condolences for the choices that lead you there, and also note that this mara is directly from the end of the thrawn trilogy. the calm, peaceful jedi master from the later eu isn't a thing yet. maybe she'll develop into that person here!

lol

the high octane concentrated crazyness of the eu is so endearing to me. when it's good it's great! and when it's bad it's yuuzhan vong.

hello, sam continuum. i've actually been meaning to read nova for a while since it was written by duggan and i really liked his run on deadpool. i definitely look forward to playing with him, he sounds adorable. but i may be biased toward tiny balls of anger.

of course! if you don't add me i'll have to do all the heavy lifting.

Every now and then I have to try and explain to someone why the EU is Very Important to me and I'm just kind of like /WAVES HANDS VAGUELY "BUT THE GOOD PARTS ARE COOL, YOU JUST HAVE TO IGNORE X AND Y AND ALL THIS OTHER STUFF AND ONLY READ THIS STUFF HERE -"

sob.

Duggan's the best writer Sam's had, imo! His first couple arcs were okay but not amazing, Duggan's run was super fun, and then Ryan's run is like....how much suffering can one boy endure before he completely loses his shit.

HAHA RIGHT. i mean i didnt read the eu when it was coming out, i only got into it recently, but i feel similarly wrt tos trek (im a TRAITOR). that said i have read a lot of the bad parts of the eu (yuuzhan vong) and i have a weird affection for it. it tries SO HARD, bless it

ohh it's good to hear it's a good run :> and tbh i have a fondness for fictional superpowered children suffering, looks at mara's weirdo childhood
