The Last Jedi Novelization Continuity Breakdown

I wasn’t actually planning on doing one of these for this but it turned out so continuity heavy that I thought I had to. I’m mostly not going to mention anything from the Visual Dictionary or other TLJ adaptations because if I did this would be turn out way too long.

• Luke’s dream in the prologue makes a reference to Jabba’s water tax, which comes from the Journal of Obi-Wan Kenobi stories in the Marvel Star Wars series.
• The prologue also alludes to a deleted scene from A New Hope where Luke tries to show his friends the space battle and talks with Biggs. The scene has been referenced in canon before but it is extensive enough here that the whole scene can, for all intents and purposes, be called canon.
• In Luke’s dream both Chandrila and Mon Cala were destroyed by the Death Star after Alderaan was, which is something that Mon Mothma feared would happen in Moving Target.
• It’s mentioned during Han’s funeral that Ematt fought with Han during the war. Han met Ematt and rescued him from Imperials on Cyrkon in Smuggler’s Run.
• Leia makes a reference to Han fighting to free Kashyyyk in her eulogy. That fight was depicted in Aftermath: Life Debt.
• Han’s dice were the only sentimental objects that he kept on the Falcon. We’ll probably get some reasoning for that in Solo.
• Many extensive ties to Cobalt Squadron. The second chapter is a scene lifted right from the end of Cobalt Squadron with matching dialogue and lines. The scene ends with Rose and Paige saying goodbye and being stationed on different ships. The only real problem is Rose’s story in Adventures #6, which is pretty awkward with all other TLJ media about her because of both the timing of her and Paige being on the same ship during the evacuation and Rose’s relationship with Poe.
• Hux thinks about how his father and other Imperial loyalists had escaped the New Republic by venturing into the Unknown Regions. This was depicted in Aftermath: Empire’s End, in which Brendol Hux is a significant character. The younger Hux’s first name of Armitage also comes from that trilogy, and Hux later thinks about Brendol’s training program introduced there.
• Poe thinks about his own parents too, Kes Dameron and Shara Bey, and how they fought with Leia in the war. We met them and saw this in the Shattered Empire comic. Later on Poe also remembers Shara having escorted Luke after the destruction of the second Death Star and and rescuing seedlings of the tree taken from the Jedi Temple from the Empire with him.
• The Visual Dictionary’s implication that pilots like Snap Wexley and Jess Pava from The Force Awakens or the EU were off on missions or at other evacuation points is confirmed here.
• The Caretakers remind Rey of the Jakku anchorites, who were introduced in the Aftermath trilogy.
• Leia and Holdo’s childhood friendship including pathfinding on Alderaan and the Apprentice Legislature on Coruscant is mentioned (as is her Gatalentan heritage) and was seen in Leia: Princess of Alderaan. Holdo’s first name, Amilyn, also came from there.
• Luke remembers his many years crossing the galaxy searching for ancient lore and current purpose with R2 as his only companion. We’ve only begun to scratch the surface of those years but we did see some of them in a couple of stories in Legends of Luke Skywalker.
• Snoke contemplates the Imperials who contributed to the rise of the First Order, including Gallius Rax, Rae Sloane, and Brendol Hux, all three of whom are from the Aftermath trilogy (though Sloane and Hux each date back to A New Dawn and Servants of the Empire, respectively). Snoke also thinks about Palpatine’s Contingency from the same trilogy.
• Rumors in the stormtrooper barracks claim Phasma had been worshipped as the divine queen of a pre-industrial barbarian world before the First Order found her. While not entirely accurate, there is a hint of truth to it as seen in the Phasma novel and it is consistent with the fact that she kept her past a tightly kept secret as established there.
• In the Resistance’s most desperate hour, Leia attempts to imagine a miracle that could save them. One of her desperate hopes is Inferno Squad arriving with a task force of Starhawks. Her mission for Inferno Squad was seen in Battlefront II: Resurrection while Starhawks come from the Aftermath trilogy.
• Cronau radiation, the radiation emitted by hyperspace jumps, dates back to Tyrant’s Test in Legends and was canonized by Tarkin.
• Leia gives Poe a recap of the Rebellion’s history with Crait, including her journey there in her youth during Leia: Princess of Alderaan while Bail used it as a base and her return there after Yavin in Storms of Crait. She later mentions how she and Red Squadron flew ski speeders to fight off Imperial scouts (SCAR Squadron) as seen in the comic.
• Pamarthe is alluded to, having been previously mentioned in Bloodline and shown in Leia: Princess of Alderaan.

Let me know if you spotted any that I missed.
