Stating in many tweets that it would be a mistake to confirm him. The specific tweet that was likely used as an example to his firing was a tweet where Wendig was adamantly opposed to the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Wendig is active politically and uses his Twitter account to push his political views, which are often progressive in nature. Vader being my favorite character in Star Wars has a lot to do with my enthusiasm.Īccording to Verge Wendig was fired, ‘because of the negativity and vulgarity that tweets bring… It was too much politics, too much vulgarity, too much negativity on part.’” I always loved his Aftermath trilogy and was hyped that Marvel had him working on a Vader title. I was itching to read more of Wendig’s work. Wendig has received a heavy dose of harassment because of the inclusion.Ī couple years later, amidst all this harassment, Wendig announced that he’s working on a mini-series about Darth Vader, as well as a yet-to-be announced Star Wars novel. This, unfortunately, did not go over too well with some Star Wars fans for political reasons.
The book introduced the first openly gay character in a Star Wars book. It starts with the Aftermath Trilogy, which focused on the events that happened in the Star Wars mythos following the destruction of the second Death Star.Ī good number of fans hated this book. Chuck Wendig is an author of a fantastic series of Star Wars books they include some of my favorite ones in the Disney continuity.
