I finally found "Nomad" again.  That's the Star Wars Nomad, the four-issue comic starring Darca Nyl.  I'm thoroughly charmed by him.  How could I not be?  I don't care if gritty antiheroes who only care about the money and possibly a single love interest are cooler.  Even when I like the bad guys, I want the good guys to win.  'S part of why I like the Hand of Thrawn duology so much.

Darca was the reason for my first edit on TVTropes.   The first I can remember, anyway.  I added him and a quote of his to the Good Feels Good page.  "When my journey began, I wanted only bloodshed, but along the way, when people saw me, they assumed I was a Jedi. And they needed my help. And…I gave it. I gave myself. It was right. It felt good. It was the only good thing I'd felt in so long."  

I heart him.  There's something about a snarky ex-mercenary going along with it when people assume he's a Jedi and trying to make things right.  I don't care about what happened to him in a later comic.  You hear me?  I don't care if he tried and failed and became a bitter hermit.

Maybe I should pick some pages to put up on s_d.  And here, of course.
