The force has awakened! @StarWars: The Lightsaber Collection is out now. @danwallaceMSP scoured the entire galaxy to bring you all things lightsabers. Discover it here: https://t.co/w8ghgKfHHf
@JediMacaroni Almost positive it’s not my creation, but also can’t recall where I lifted that backstory info from. Did the character feature in spinoff stories?
@CJDVise I can’t recall the specific reference that led me to 10+ years but it came from somewhere; this is also the older Affleck Batman with a dead Robin in his past so building in enough time for those milestones to occur seems to make sense
@jasoncfry As I recall you were working for the Wall Street Journal at the time, so we basically hijacked the WSJ’s monthly fax machine data plan to pass galaxy maps back and forth
@jasoncfry Post a pic! I still have proto Star Wars galaxy maps from the late ‘90s, written in ink and caked with Wite-Out, lying in a dark corner somewhere
@smurfjedi@starwars Glad you liked that! You’re right that there shouldn’t be a “Sith Path” textbook patterned on the Jedi Path, so the stolen documents approach is what I eventually arrived at. The book designer nailed it with differing fonts, layouts, and page edges.
@smurfjedi Thanks! I had a lot of creative control, but in truth a lot of the training material had already been created in RPG sources by the time I started writing in 2009. Lightsaber forms, Force abilities, etc. so it was up to me to collate and bridge the gaps.
