STAR WARS Rebels new animated series!

[Mara Jade's Father]

Everything is canon from here on out. Every novel, game, comic book etc.

Well not everything. Within reason or if otherwise stated. You can't say everything or the stupid people freak out when Lego or Phineas and Ferb have a special. Plus you never know if their might be special materials released like those Infinities or Tagg an Bink comics for example. Those were not canon for even the old EU.

You know what would be cool? If there was some massive plot moment that affected canon in an angry birds game but it only existed in that game.

...and Marvel has the comics again. They introduced Jaxxon the giant talking green space rabbit. So be careful what you wish for as far as everything being canon now.

When? I know they put him on one of the many comic covers for Star Wars #1 but he was not part of the story. Personally I wouldn't mind. He's no more rediculous than the cantina of jabba groups.

One could argue that they already made his species canon in the Clone Wars series.

He was one of the characters in the magnificent seven rip off, one of the first stories after the film adaptation was over.

Are you talking about the old comics? We are talking about the new EU canon established within the last year?

 

[glunark]

Old school Marvel.

I dunno man, looks like there might be a connection, after all...

You'd need a REALLY big bird to knock that guy over.

Gawd, that CAPITOL ship is bugging me. :facepalm But it looks like a Pelta-class frigate. We saw them throughout Clone Wars:

I love this design. I don't know, maybe because I am very excited for what it represents.... A rebel alliance aircraft carrier. The carrier aspect is why I loved the TCW republic carrier. This looks like that crossed with a blockade runner. I served in Naval Aviation for 22 years so I tend to like the carrier design rather than simply launching craft from an open bay.

It probably is based on it, if you read the notes on the concept art it reads like a "cheat sheet" for the modelers and it makes reference to changing things from the original/previous model. So my guess is that they took an existing model and are using it as base for this one for both continuity in the design as well as saving time on designing and modeling a completely new design.

I meant the old SW comics. I don't think he's canon even if they seemed to show a body in TCW. I think it was more of a reference than an attempt to put him in the EU.

Agreed.

To quote myself, I honestly wonder if this big pig creature is a deliberate Angry Birds easter egg. Head on, you wouldn't see the legs at all. It's green. Someone should've asked @ Celebration!

Nothing really new but just putting it out there:

If they had to bring anyone live, I'd like to see Ahsoka pop up in the sequels. It would be a good way to give info to Luke about his parents. The old EU is gone, so they have to reintroduce that again somehow, either in the books or movies. That was one of the cooler things in the EU, when Luke and Leia started finding info about their parents.

 

[Wolfsburg]

Wouldn't it be a hoot if Ezra was Kylo Ren? Of course, Ezra would be Luke's age, by TFA...

As cool as it is that ashoka is on rebels, I hope they don't waste her on that alone. I'd love to see her as an old woman for an episode 7 cameo.

Imagine the conversation her and Luke could have

 

[Wolfsburg]

Luke would be like "My father had an apprentice?! No one mentioned you, ever...and please stop calling me Sky Guy" Lol!

 

[astroboy]

Nice...
