What are your thoughts/feelings on the High Republic era coming?

I’m cautiously optimistic!I think it’s far enough removed from my Jedi Order babes that I’m not so invested (unless they’re used to shit on my beloveds like, oh, see they’re GOOD Jedi unlike those awful, corrupt Jedi that follow the themes of Star Wars and literally express the Force in the exact way that George Lucas describes it, god, they’re definitely the worst) but they’re still Jedi babes and we’ll hopefully get consistent Force Lore (I swear to god if they try to say that Gray Jedi are a thing after the story group has made it clear that George Lucas said that’s not possible, that mortals cannot balance the light and the dark that way, I will RIOT, Force Lore is one of the few things I’m willing to get into an internet fight over–okay, not really, BUT I’D BE REAL MAD) that I’ll enjoy.Sure, any time you get into ANYTHING with the Jedi Order and the Force, there’s a chance they’ll mess up the themes that George Lucas set down.  And maybe they will mess it up and I’ll have to Quit Star Wars Forever or at least try really hard to ignore it.But right now, that is some GORGEOUS concept art, I’m really kind of FANTASTICALLY curious what Soule’s writing will be like on a SW novel instead of a comic, and it’s new enough that I’m very curious what they’ll do with being in this era that I don’t think has been explored much before.BUT SERIOUSLY LOOK AT THESE BABES:

IF NOTHING ELSE, THEY ARE SERVING UP SOME FUCKING LOOKS AND I AM  R E A D Y  FOR IT.I AM READY TO HAVE SOME STORIES ABOUT SOME JEDI BABES AGAIN, GIVE IT TO ME.

According to early scripts, the original finale of “Return of the Jedi” would have been around the capital of the Empire, then named “Had Abbadon,” a planet that was one colossal city (an idea re-used in the prequels). The original threat was not one, but two death stars under construction in orbit around Had Abbadon, which also had a moon filled with life known as the Green Moon (which later on became Endor in the later drafts). Luke was taken by Vader to the Emperor’s palace and throne room on Had Abbadon, filled with lava. 

This was rewritten to streamline things and make the finale less ambitious, but Ralph McQuarrie did the art for the original concept.
