Expanded Universe
Star Wars is unusual in that George Lucas/Lucasfilm have outlined four levels of canon, which includes the Star Wars Expanded Universe, effectively canonizing the continuity established by Star Wars novels and resulting in strong efforts to maintain continuity between the books and the films (see Star Wars canon for details). Many elements created in the Star Wars Expanded Universe have made it into the officially released media, such as:
- The Outrider, first seen in the Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire videogame and included in the A New Hope special edition
- The double bladed lightsaber, created by Exar Kun, is wielded by Darth Maul in The Phantom Menace
- The character Aayla Secura, who was created for the comics and later appeared in Attack of the Clones and Revenge Of The Sith
- The name of the planet Coruscant, created by Timothy Zahn
