It also has the best image of Darth Caedus to date. We have a new Tenel Ka image?! "So this is how liberty dies...with thunderous applause." -Padme Amidala

You're only there for four days and you're sleeping?!? Gawd, kids these days. Nice info Lord Iurus. Very nice indeed. Go hit a Starbucks and get us more dirt.

Posts: 13966 Jul 25 09 5:38 PM	but I sent Nom a picture of Lumiya and the Solos are in there. Once again, I am rendered speechless. It's like a more realistic version of the most recent cover we've gotten of him. This is some of the best art we've seen yet- each guide lately is getting better and better. There are some disputes on images, such as how I feel the Tenel Ka image does not represent her post-DJ, but all in all it's great and mostly original. It also has the best image of Darth Caedus to date. X wants me to mention that the maps are awesome. There are pages for many planets, and a species section, as well as history lessons by era. Maps in the Atlas: The Galaxy (generic dateless) The Core The Colonies Galactic Population c. 25 ABY The Inner Rim The Expansion Region The Mid Rim Hutt Space The Outer Rim Client States and Miscellaneous Regions The Rakata Empire c. 30,000-25,200 BBY The Conquests of Xim the Despot 25,127-25,096 BBY The Pre-Republic Galaxy c. 25,100 BBY Origins of the Jedi (and other mystic traditions of the young Republic) c. 25,000-22,000 BBY Galactic Explorations (basically a pre-Naboo timeline of such, most colorful map in the Atlas) The Sith Empire c. 5,000 BBY The Great Hyperspace War c. 5,000 BBY The Great Sith War 4,000-3,996 BBY The Jedi Civil War 3,959-3.956 BBY The Mandalorian Wars 3,976-3,960 BBY The Fall of the Republic 1,004-1,000 BBY The Hapes Cluster The Hydian Way c. 3,693 BBY Sidious's Preparations 52-32 BBY The Phantom Menace The Fate of Outbound Flight Tatooine, Geonosis and the Arkanis Sector Attack of the Clones The Clone Wars (2 maps) Kashyyyk and Neighbors Revenge of the Sith Imperial Atrocities The Adventures of Han Solo 14-0 BBY The Centrality The Corporate Sector Missions Merciful and Otherwise 2-0 BBY The Ultimate Power in the Universe 22 BBY-12 ABY A New Hope Yavin and the Gordian Reach Famous Shadowports Flashpoints in the Galactic Civil War 2 BBY-4 ABY The Road to Kessel The Spice Trade Hoth and the Greater Javin The Empire Strikes Back Endor and the Moddell Sector Inner Zuma Region (Side View) Return of the Jedi The Ssi-Ruuk and Nagai Invasions The New Republic Advances 4-6 ABY The Road to Coruscant 6-7 ABY The Hunt for Zsinj 7-8 ABY Campaigns After Zsinj's Death 8 ABY Thrawn's Campaigns 9 ABY STOP STOP STOP.

Quite often, shadowports were hidden to provide protection from authorities, with their locations only known to reputable spacers. Notable shadowports were located on Kothlis and somewhere in the Tapani Sector. Booster Terrik's Errant Venture was probably one of the better-known shadowports." Jaina realized with a cold shudder that Jacen had not failed. He had sacrificed everything-his name, his family, his reputation, his life- to unite the galaxy. And now here Jaina was, watching the birth of a galaxywide league of worlds dedicated to working together in peace. Had Jacen won after all? -Jaina Solo, Invincible

Anakin Solo: Ben Skywalker: Boba Fett: Cade Skywalker: Darth Caedus (best picture of him yet!): Cha Niathal: Corran Horn: Darth Krayt: Ganner Rhysode: Jacen Solo: Jaina Solo: Luke Skywalker: Lumiya: Mara Jade: Roan Fel: Tenel Ka - here you go Zinnos : In the cockpit of his StealthX heading for Hapes, Luke Skywalker felt a hand brush his hair, and as he reached out involuntarily to touch it, he knew his world had ended. ~ Luke Skywalker's reaction upon realizing his wife Mara had died

Luke looks badass, but I thought Sue said they couldn't use Mark Hamill's likeness because to me that looks alot like how Mark looks now. Darth Krayt looks amazing. Ganner kind of looks like Jonathan Barrowman to me, so if he ever gets tired of Torchwood... Tenel Ka looks like the chick from the Resident Evil movies and Kirsten Dunst had a child. Overall though I'm really impressed by the artwork Why is life so cruel to a person who is so true During the deepest and darkest nights While I lay in a fear of flight I know I was at my best once But now I know I never will return For now I know I will be cruel -DuWayne Cleveland

Posts: 14966 Jul 25 09 10:40 PM	Tenel Ka looks amazing! Though her outfit seems more YJK, her face is definitely older. Ben's image, as well as Lumiya's and Ganner's and Krayt's, are also equally awesome. Buying this book now!! "So this is how liberty dies...with thunderous applause." -Padme Amidala

Except that Cade looks like current Mickey Rourke, which is apt. Best picture of Jacen as a Dud Sith, but his other picture is a kind of mediocre and Anakin's is not bad, but not anything that we wouldn't have seen before either; Jaina's is among the best pictures of Jaina. Beninho looks vaguely similar to his picture in the coming cover, but otherwise has little similarity with his earlier depictions, or with Luke or Mara, and even when I try to put against my negative views of the character aside I still can't but say that he looks bad, arrogant and effeminate, and really like he would be a member of those awful Jonah Brothers. Not like a hero, but a hero's uppity friend before he has learned a valuable lesson in life from the hero. If it's an Imperial, it deserves to die. Edited 5 times by Rouge77 Jul 26 09 1:03 AM.

And a very sarcastic thank you for now ruining this drawing for me for all eternity. I hope you're happy, because I'm not. He's friggen 16, would you rather he looked like someone from Coldplay or U2?
