The 10 Best Star Wars Characters of the Post-Disney Era


On April 25, 2014, Lucasfilm announced that the countless Star Wars novels, comics, video games and other ancillary material in the Expanded Universe were no longer part of official Star Wars canon. Instead, they would be rebranded under the Star Wars Legends banner and moving forward, the Disney-owned Lucasfilm would only recognize the (then) six existing live-action films, the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series and film and all future material as canon.

Naturally, this news was a bitter pill to swallow for countless Star Wars fans, but since then, we’ve been introduced to countless new and exciting characters who’ve managed to capture our hearts and our interest in spite of this.

With that in mind, we here at Epicstream have compiled a list of what we feel are the 10 best Star Wars characters of the post-Disney era. Check out our picks and let us know what you think in the comments section.
