The Star Wars sci-fi universe began with an idea for a “space opera” from George Lucas in the ’70s and has expanded into more comic books, novels, films, songs, series, video games, theme parks and cultural references than we can count. It’s no wonder that shows like The Mandalorianย and video games like Star Wars Jedi: Survivor continue to be so successful. And since Disney acquired the rights to Star Wars, it’s been developing addictive merchandise we just can’t get enough of.
