Poll Wars Episode I: The Phantom Blog Post

I clearly don't eat enough Blog Fiber, because this blog for sure ain't regular (HEEYO).

Someone should tell the blog authors this.

Anyway, like most people on the internet, Fallout 4, Star Wars books, and the upcoming Star Wars movie have been taking up most of my attention these last few months. What's that you say? Fallout 4 only came out like two weeks ago? Shut up. I've actually had a blog post or two in the pipe for a while now (two months actually)(this is why I need blog fiber)(Seriously, we have 8 draft posts in the works. It's ridiculous), but haven't posted it yet because it's not done.

Also! We have a poll up on the side now: WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE STAR WARS EPISODE?!?! I wanted to include the holiday special, but decided against it because it would win hands down. Well, Episodes I and II may have given it a run for its money, but still.

Back to the meat of the post though. As a few of you no doubt know, when Disney purchased Lucasfilm, they struck down the old expanded universe and have been gradually replacing it with their own. As of now, the only things that are canon in the Star Wars expanded Universe are the movies, the Clone Wars and Rebels TV shows (the ones on the Disney channel and very much meant for younger audiences), a few comic books, and a few normal books. This includes a series of books and comics that supposedly lead up to and provide a bit of background for Episode VII. So, of course, over the last few months or so I've been slowly purchasing and reading all of the new books and comics. I'm currently about three books, twenty TV episodes, and five comic series into this new canon.
