![]() The world’s atmosphere had long since vented into space, leaving behind a barren body of rock and magma. A jagged chasm, large enough to fly an armada through, reached deep into the shattered planet’s core. ![]() He didn’t know what had busted that world or how long ago it happened, but he could tell from the result that the weapon had been powerful beyond measure. ![]() The broken planet that was the source of those asteroids loomed behind him off his left shoulder, positioned so it blocked the orange-red star known as Elturis, casting the visible surface of the planet in shadow.

Which draws our attention to 2016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.ĭuring the final scenes when Jyn Erso is searching for the Death Star files on Scarif, she is mumbling the files she is scrolling past, one of which is titled Hyperspace Tracking. As seen in the film, this is the first time hyperspace tracking as been used at any point in Star Wars canon. This confused many of the characters and members of the audience as to how it is possible. While this reference doesn’t come from extended canon as such, it is still a great reference that must be mentioned. With that, she took personal care in his development to ensure he would fulfill his potential. We learn that she believed FN-2187 had the potential to be one of the best Storm troopers in the First Order. This connection is fleshed out throughout Phasma’s canon appearances. During both The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, it can be seen that Captain Phasma and FN-2187 (Finn) have some form of connection. Whether it is her stand-alone novel and comic series, or as a side character in other material, Phasma is very much present.

During Poe Dameron 14: Legend Lost, Part 1, Leia speaks to Poe about his role in the Resistance, about how he is more than just a the best pilot in the galaxy, but is also a leader that the Resistance will one day need. This story arc first originates in the Star Wars: Poe Dameron comic. However, this is not the first time in Star Wars canon that Leia has been prepping Poe to be a leader in the Resistance. This involves Poe getting demoted as punishment for his failure to see the bigger picture of this war. Poe and Leia Sourceĭuring The Last Jedi, we see an interesting dynamic between Poe and Leia as Leia tries to teach Poe the ways of being a wise and strong leader.
