Tonight I got to meet a couple of folks who wrote what’s considered the ‘bible’ of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Kemp Remillard did 5 cutaways for this book, and the two of them went into detail about each one.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

My book on the left. I got a chance to shake their hands, and thank them both for a great book. I also mentioned to Mr. Hidalgo that I still had all my Star Wars Adventure Journals from the old West End RPG, where he told me that’s where he got his start.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I was going to ask Mr. Remillard if he could draw a little ship, and he doodled the TIE fighter without me asking.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Me and Fett! *squeee*<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It was a lot of fun, for an event aimed at kids. \u00a0A few questions were asked, the best one coming from a kid, who asked what a Deathtrooper was. \u00a0Pablo Hidalgo gave a great answer about how they were recruited from normal stormtroopers, but possibly ‘enhanced’.<\/p>\n

A follow-up question by an older fan was why were they only with Krennic in the movie, and Pablo answered that Krennic was a ‘show boat’ guy, and had to show off to everyone, since he wasn’t in Tarkin or Vader’s league.<\/p>\n

There was one last thing that Pablo said that made me tear up.<\/p>\n

He said that it’s a story that they’ll tell someday, but he acknowledged that Luke named his squadron in Empire<\/em> after learning about how the Alliance really acquired the plans to the Death Star.<\/p>\n

Rogue Squadron. *tear*<\/p>\n

And since Pablo Hidalgo is part of the Star Wars<\/em> Story Group, I’m taking him at his word.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
