Yeah but that sniper was the famous raider Swargo Tulponian, there are 3 books in the expanded universe about him

    I genuinely have no idea if you’re serious or trolling.

    All relevant books were rendered noncanon when Disney bought the property, so it doesn't matter.

    Who gives a fuck what Disney considers canon?

    I mean, yeah, a lot of people do, but they shouldn't.

    That describes the entire Star Wars Expanded Universe. Every character was critically important to the survival of the galaxy! Some strong books, some weak ones, and its ridiculous storylines all look phenomenal compared to the travesty of Disney canon, IMO

    The Glup Shiddo cameo in the second book was squandered potential.

    True, but I liked how they referenced Glup in the early Yuu'zhan Vong books by the asking about how he basically was the only reason Tattooine survived the Desolation! Nice nod to previous characters

    The Yuu'zhan Vong books were fucking great in comparison. They finally gave us some closure on how Swargo and Yuu'zhan made that black vase in Luke's home on Tattoine (present in the background when Obi-Wan gives Anakin's lightsaber to Luke). We'd have to wait three years for the Morp Pumboô quadrilogy of comics to see how the materials got stolen to make it in the first place, but it was worth it.
