Not that up to date (I've been out of it for a little while and everyone's got delusions of grandeur), but isn't Roan Fel's dead wife Hapan? So could Sia just be asking about her mother's family?

Breezed right over that. Good catch.

In fact, I think she was talking about Zekk's descendants.

Your title is a spoiler by itself.

So she gets poisoned and gets shot off a building and uses a jet pack to escape? Sigh. I think she should have died. She is not force sensitive.

When Cade Skywalker faces Darth Krayt again I do not want to see Morrigan Corder interfering like she did in the Sith Temple. That would be absurd if it were to happen again. But since she lived, this is a concern that I have.

And knowing the Mando arc is left out leaves me with hope for more Legacy arcs to come some day later in the future!

I was worried for awhile that they were going to do away with the storyline and not continue. Anyhow here are a few predictions:

-Darth Krayt will kill Darth Wyrlock for what he did to Krayt on Had Abbadon.
-Morrigan Corde/Nyna Calixte will die.
-Cade will finally accept his destiny to be a jedi and will lay off the death sticks once and for all.

I didn't go back and read the last few pages of this thread, so this was probably brought up before but...

Legacy: War, the 6 issue continuation/conclusion of the Legacy comic series, is the thing that was sooooooo secretive that Randy told us we'd NEVER EVER IN A MILLION YEARS guess? Huh?

So... basically Legacy is NOT over, they're just reverting back to the 1-5, 1-6 miniseries numbering instead of labeling it as #51, 52, etc? Lame. Someone in marketing really messed this one up.

I'm with Henning on the dislike of this new miniseries craze. I was upset that Invasion: Rescues was relabeled as issue 1, and now it looks like that'll be the norm. I guess the general population has a shorter attention span than I even gave them credit for.

No kidding!! I missed seeing it the 1st 3 times it was so inconspicuous!

I don't think I spotted it till someone pointed it out over on the DH boards.

I suppose you guys have a point. Its still annoying though
Sure, I agree, but if it increases the readership and therefore lengthens the runs on some of these lines, then I think it's worth it in the long run.

I think that's right, and I have a hunch that when it comes to Star Wars, the Casual Fan Market is huge.

My guess is that inside the cover the numbering will continue. Akin to how Dark Times continues the Republic numbers which continued the Star Wars numbers. Rebellion also continued the Empire numbers. They will probably still be there just less obvious.

Oh I agree Henning! (While I get the "why") It irks me. When prices of everything from books comics to toys going up, it'd be nice to see some market campaigns for the people who will continue to get it all because we're addicted to the EU :^0

I mean seriously I can only find K'kruhk at Toy'sRus?

His time to enter the Novels is PAST DUE you ask me: which I note you did not. :^0

Ah, good catch. So that brings us up to 7 series likely accounted for. The 8th could be a new series, or another mini of the ones we've counted. I guess we'll find out in a week!

A 'mini-series' of no set length (that I can find)
It's six, per the announcement: http://splashpage.mtv.com/2010/08/05/star-wars-legacy-comics-star-war s-legacy-war/.

So with Legacy gone, what comic series' will be left?
Eight new series: http://www.comi cbookresources.com/?page=article&id=27394. I'm pretty sure that means 8 mini-series. And I wouldn't say Legacy is gone; simply moving to the mini-series format, where further mini-series will always be contingent upon the success of the current mini-series.

I don't know what all they're counting towards the 8 new series, but doing some quick guessing, I'd say:

1) At least one arc of Knight Errant, maybe two
2) Legacy: War
3) A new Invasion arc
4) A new Dark Times arc
5) A new Blood Ties arc (though my guess is they're not counting the Jango/Boba one, so whatever the next one is)
6) The Haden Blackmen Darth Vader arc

That leaves 1-2 more, which could include double-ups of some of the above series (2 Invasion arcs, for instance).

I've asked this question in the Fan reactions thread.

But as for the mini series- this way they can end the stories they have set up on their time. this will be the end- for now- they hint that sales and fan reaction to the 6 issues could- and that's a BIG COULD- help a spin off series down the road, but even that one must read into what they say.

But I think it's a "dumb it down" thing- if we have small numbers the casual fan will buy it- if it's #45 a casual fan would probably not get it.
