I know I asked about JAT earlier, but I just feel like asking different people’s opinions on some of the more (perceived) "controversial" stories from Legends today. I liked the first miniseries, not so much on the other two. Palpatine coming back is still kind of lame, but it was fun. And no talk about Episode IX copying it. I’m just strictly asking your thoughts on this trilogy alone.
Wonderful despite being an unnecessary addition to the old Canon. It's interesting to see Luke fall and come back. Palpatine trying to stave of death is definitely something that makes sense for the character. The Eclipse is a neat design and something that's also fairly believable.
It isn't something that really fits in the timeline as well as I think the Thrawn trilogy, NJO series, or the LOTF series do. These are all creative new threats for the New Republic/Galactic Alliance, and they continue the story in interesting new ways. Palpatine coming back, while again making complete sense for the character and being really cool to read about, feels like it flies directly in the face of the OT. New threats are gonna come, it's a big galaxy, but a rehash of the main villain just seems kind of lazy.
Still a great story though. <3
