 So, about three years ago, a new phase in Star Wars tie-in publishing was launched. I was a bit intrigued by it: especially as YA genre fiction has been largely doing after-the-end Crapsack Worlds for a while now. Though I think they should have gone further back along the timeline to establish their setting -- perhaps the Kymoodon Era (15 000 years before the films) or the Waymancy Storm conflicts (about 11 000 years before the films). But more on lore another day. 

Anyway, using Imgflip, I couldn't help but riff on the overarching title for this new and ambitious transmedia project:


Kevin Smith, as Silent Bob, brandishing a lightsaber. Text at the bottom of the image reads "Star Wars: The High Republic". D'you get it?

Yes, that one (if you've seen it) is.... well, I can't copyright it, as Silent Bob belongs to View Askew Productions and Star Wars, of course, is still firmly in Disney's grip. But this was my take on the title.
