Star Wars: Rebellion Easter Egg - Sandman has the Force?

Start a new game with the largest galaxy size selected.

In one of the star systems at the bottom is a planet named Neelgaiman (or something spelled like that).

This is an obvious tribute to Neil Gaiman, the creator of the Sandman comic book series.

Actually, this is a reference to 'Children of the Jedi', by Barbara Hambly, one of the few decent Star Wars novels out there. She mentions the planet Neelgaimon in it. I don't remember the exact circumstances, but I know she and Neil met at a convention of some sort and got to talking. So the planet's name isn't original, but the little description in the planet finder is...what are 'sand mines', anyway?

You know, I read that book and I never noticed that, but you're right. Sandman is a comic book that Neil wrote.

If you can get a hold of the Star Wars encyclopedia, the planet neelgaimon is in it. It is a desolate place. But, wow, its even in this book, how cool.
