    Brian Wood really liked writing in the time period after A New Hope because he gets to explore stuff he always wanted to see. #StarWars

    Even though we'll see new characters and places, the team on new Legacy is trying to keep it feeling like #StarWars. #ECCC

    Stradley says Dawn of the Jedi will really show where the Jedi came from and why they believe what they believe. #StarWars #ECCC

    Stradley said that thus far there hasn't been a single discussion between Disney and LFL about publishing. #StarWars #ECCC

    It's business as usual for Dark Horse and #StarWars comics for now and Stradley says they've been told they'll hear something this year.

    Wood says he wanted to focus on Leia and show her pilot and badass sides; it was one of the first things he asked Stradley if he could do.

    Wood said Leia is young and has so much on her shoulders that there's a lot to explore. #StarWars #ECCC

    Hardman and Bechko say they write Ania Solo as strong and flawed, not just with the strong female tropes. #StarWars #ECCC

    Fan asked about Invasion, not set to come back anytime soon. #StarWars #ECCC

    Oh no. Someone asked about canon and the new movie. #StarWars #ECCC

    Fan asked Wood about Wedge in the comics. Wood really likes him and will keep including him in the comic, he loved the X-wing books.

    Wood says one Wedge's conflicts is that he's been through more than fresh off the farm Luke who's stealing the attention. #StarWars #ECCC

    Hardman made a great point about the EU and said that no matter what happens in the movies, the books will still be on the shelf. #StarWars

    Amy Ratcliffe@amy_geek
    Stradley said with the opportunities in the new movie, it doesn't make sense for LFL to fit what they are doing within the EU. #StarWars

    "The movies lead the way, we follow in their wake." #StarWars #ECCC

    Fan asked about underworld and bounty hunters in the comics; both are coming up in Wood's #StarWars. #ECCC

    Stradley reminds writers to write stories and characters, not Wikipedia articles that just reiterate all the facts. #StarWars #ECCC
