NOTE: Infinities is a Star Wars
product line created to account for story lines that take place outside
of the established continuity.
Now for Lucasfilm this
is a blanket label that encompasses mainly comic titles, like the alternate
universe mini-series "Infinities - A New Hope" or the anthology series
"Tales."
However, here at "The
Ultimate Star Wars Timeline" I'm gonna take the meaning a little differently,
because even though some stories are spoofs or alternative histories, others
are well thought out narratives that actually take continuity into account
and add to the Star Wars Universe. Besides the initial goal of this page
was to collect as many works as possible from the Star Wars universe, not
to ignore them.
As an example, even
some of the most outlandish installments of "Tales" generally refer to
a particular point in the continuity and can be placed into the timeline,
even if the events don't always gel smoothly.
Other works, like the
previously mentioned "Infinities - A New Hope," are set in such a different
Star Wars Universe that placing it in the regular timeline is meaningless.
Thus this "Infinities"
section will be broken into two sections. First, break downs of the first twenty
issues of "Star Wars Tales," after that the series lifted its infinities banner and listed continuity references in each issue. The second section lists stories that take place outside of
the continuity.
