On this episode Chris, Ben, and Dominic are joined by Star Wars author Christie Golden to talk about her new book Star Wars: Dark Disciple. Christie takes us behind the scenes of adapting the novel from eight unproduced episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars and shares some insights on its protagonists Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Vos. Then Dominic and Chris share some stories from their trip to San Diego Comic Con, including the amazing Star Wars concert, the Hall H line (complete with donuts from JJ Abrams), trying to buy First Order Stormtrooper action figures, "King of the Force," and so much more. They also relive the big Hall H panel and break down what we learned about The Force Awakens. Then they discuss the way the prequels are being treated in the marketing of the new films, does that matter, and how best for us prequel fans to respond. All this and much more!
