Star Wars Lore Episode XCV - The Life of Quinlan Vos

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlsS_N_PS8w


The Clone Wars including Quinlan Vos became a strange new era, pairing him with Ventress and resulting in the Christie Golden novel.   

This video series  helps to reconcile this new Vos with the older, Dark Horse one, where he was allowed to go undercover to the Nightsisters of Dathomir directly, and Dooku does not remember anything about 'Admiral Enigma' trying to kill him after he cuts down Assaj  (in Golden's romance).

I have read Christie's book now, and it paints Quinlan as a sort of naive 'Goodfellas' gangster with a heart of mush, rather than the Dark Horse badass who operated out of the Wheel trade outpost and watched his future baby-momma grow up in the gutter.  (yes, I mean that ruby-haired Khaleen)

The maker of this video series dearly wants us to weigh in upon Quin's possible future under the Disney label, and is soliciting comments.  Please leave one.

I am still trying to work out how to fit Disney's Clone Wars Vos  into the Dark Horse earlier EU ...They can never eliminate things that Lucas put into the films about Quin and Aayla, but they let Christie KILL THOLME!   Ostrander and Duursema not only let him live in their final Republic issues, but they guaranteed that Quin could reproduce with Khaleen and put the yellow stripe on baby Korto's face.

  She has done us all a great disservice by ignoring the work  of his creators.  They after all were accepted by Lucas, the ultimate badge of favor.  Even if their publisher got kicked to the curb, Vos fans must rally to keep his history as his graphic novel 'mom and dad'  molded it.

What is The Quinlan Vos 100 ?

http://quinlanvos.retrogression.org/ the Quinlan Vos Fanlisting   http://www.janduursema.com/ the artist's official site  The original Livejournal community was begun to post the fanfiction I write about Quinlan Vos, the shmexy Kiffar Jedi created by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema, around a tavern extra in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. He has gone on to become a popular character in the Dark Horse graphic novels, set in the Star Wars Extended Universe.  He and his padawan Aayla Secura pleased George Lucas enough that he added them into the next two prequel films.  Then the computer-animated Clone Wars tv show made Quin a regular. Most recently he was paired up with Assaj Ventress in the new series of official Star Wars novels. My fanfiction is set in the world of Ostrander and Duursema's graphic novels. I do intend to add more someday. The content is frequently adult, and often violent, as Vos struggles to turn away from the Dark Side before it is t...
