We had the honor to sit with James Luceno (Agents of Chaos, The Unifying Force), Matthew Stover (Traitor), and Enrique Guerrero (Star Wars Insider, Hyperspace) at Legacy Expo last month to discuss their contributions to the series. Thanks to Kyle Meisch (Xezené) for moderating.

On this day in 1995, the first issue of the comic adaptation of Heir to the Empire was released. Have you experienced the comic adaptation? It's excellent!!

I sat down with Star Wars author Barbara Hambly at @legacy-expo.bsky.social 2025 to discuss romance, fanfiction, why women should write Star Wars, and more. You can listen on Space Waffles wherever you get your podcast, or watch it on @thegeekywaffle.bsky.social

Rumor is, he's still waiting for day 3 of the con.

We can’t believe it’s been over a week already. How’re you coping with Legacy Expo being over? We’re over here re-reading the Wraith Squadron series.

We'd love to hear what some of your favorite moments from Legacy Expo were! Did a vendor have a print of your favorite obscure character? Were you able to ask an author a question in their panel? Did you learn something about Legends you didn't know before?

"Legacy Expo was not only fun but also incredibly welcoming to everyone. In the closing ceremony, this point was brought up multiple times, from both con goers and guests alike."
