definitly general grievous. something detailing his war with the huk and his life before the crash. then end it around when he first shows up in the clone wars cartoon. i think he could be a really tragic kind of character. id like to see him a an honourable warrior during his battles on kalee, and then after the crash have his brain seriously skrewed around with and have him semi brainwashed and turned into a twisted freak. it could detail his appearence before and after. id like so see him as kind of like robocop behind his mask but scarred up and missing a jaw. give him some wires and stuff for a speech synthesiser.

there is plenty odf info on greivous, if you know hhow to read.
Whoever said anything about "useless crap?"
It's quite obvious that new material needs to be created when an EU book gets written. No offense, but I really can't find any logic in what you're saying. I can understand it when I read it, but it doesn't make sense to say that they shouldn't make up new stuff. Without authors/other people creating new material, there would be no EU whatseoever unless George Lucas himself made it.
But that's what EU is. George doesn't write Expanded Universe material, it gets approved by him and written by others, and if you think that's dumb or something, I guess your entitled to your own opinion, but that's pretty ignorant.
Plus, what if it's not about one of GL's characters? George didn't create every Star Wars character. Such as Revan or Tsavong Lah.

Their BACKGROUNDS are EU. You never once hear them say that Grievous is Kaleesh, or that Windu is from Haruun Kal. You never hear it said that Grievous has Jedi blood infused into him, or that he was present at the Battle of Geonosis but not prepared to fight. You never hear it said that Mace Windu trained Depa Billaba or invented Vaapad.
You obviously don't comprehend the idea of EU.

i dont get it either. they made books about luke that were set after rotj. they made comics and a book about maul pre ep1. they always make up stuff for movie characters in eu. i cant think of any that i havent seen in either a comic or mentioned in a book doing something more than they did in a movie. if your not going to make it up then all you can do is write about the movies.
as far as i know none of the eu stuff is canon, thats why its called eu. anything that isnt seen or refered to in the movies or talked about by lucas isnt canon. darth bane started out in eu but now hes refered to in the main site under the movie section if you look up the sith order. there is alot of eu stuff about him but hes been put in the movie section as the founder of the rule of two.
they give eu backgrounds and futures to almost all the major canon characters. i dont get what you mean.
I would love to see an Obi-Wan film noir-ish detective story. Although AotC may have been a clump of crap, Obi-Wan investigating sparked off some thought in me and I just had an idea of Obi-Wan wandering around the galaxy in his mullet and tasche' with lots of shady characters and in his little jedi starfighter.
Obi-Wan = Intergalactic James Bond. For me, it would develop his character so much more, Obi-Wan involved with dangerous women (I know he has that romance, but he could have more, for the sake of the order of course), and GAMBLING! It probably sounds cheesy and such but meh, I have a vision!
Of course, theres no way this could fit into SW continuity with lil' Ani about, as I really imagined AotC Obi jaunting around the galaxy...
anybody else like that idea?
