    I dont know how to answer that. It's not like Ive seen the film to be able to say if anything is spoiled.

    So far it takes place before Ep III during the Clone Wars, and involves characters from RO and the prequels :idk:

    Im going to assume you wont want to read this though. It's early, but as of now, it really feels like it's going to set the stage for RO and give tons of backstory for characters.

    The only one post Ep4 would be Thrawn, which we have. I dont really care about any of the other characters.

    Really I want Plaguies, and that whole book recanonized.

    Bane too, but they've already contradicted the fuck out of it, so that ship has sailed.

    In the Clone Wars finale - where Yoda meets his force/holicron ghost. The fact that Yoda even knew who he was and that he created the rule of two pretty much contradicts the entire premise.

    if you haven't seen it in VR, you haven't really seen it.

    It certainly doesn't look like something to go buy VR for, but online videos really give you no feel for what the new VR stuff actually feels like.

    GOD I COULD KILL YOU RIGHT NOW UGH!

    There's a lot to catch up on. I'd start with this miniseries. Starts right after ROTJ

    http://comicastle.org/manga-journey-to-star-wars-the-force-awakens-shattered-empire.html

    That site seems to have most of them.

    Here's a list of all the canon comics.

    Yes. As the gif shows, he's the main antagonist in this season of Rebels. Also has a book coming out shortly.

    his current incarnation is. The stuff from that trilogy is not, though a good bit of it (minus silly clone stuff) may make its way into canon via Rebels and the new book.

    I'd still recommend reading the EU arc with him.

    One of my bosses is a fat slob in his late 50s. He's very self concious of it and on more than one occasion has told us all he didnt use to be that way, and was quite successful bedding hot chicks. At one time he was a player.

    This kind of feels like that.
