The X-Wing series is a sizable part of the [[Star Wars Expanded Universe]]. This page covers the comic book series and the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Category:X-wing_novels novel series], which were produced more or less in that order, although several of the books came out after the main comics series ended and the most recent comic book was in 2005. As the page image says, the character Wedge Antilles and the X-Wing starfighter are the absolute constants. The games, being only vaguely connected, each have [[Rogue Squadron|their]] own [[X-Wing|pages]].
 
The comics are collectively titled "[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/X-wing:_Rogue_Squadron_(comics) Rogue Squadron]". They started coming out in 1995, and ended [[No Ending|abruptly]] in late 1998. Stackpole (see below) certainly had a hand in them, but exactly how much influence he had appears to vary from issue to issue and arc to arc. These are set not very long after the Battle of Endor. Initially the comics were supposed to run through three arcs, about twelve issues, but they ran for a good thirty-five issues, not counting the bonus short comic "Rogue Squadron One Half" or [[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/X-wing:_Rogue_Leader_<!-- 28comics29%28comics%29 Rogue Leader]], which was a three-issue arc that came out in 2005, did not involve any input from Stackpole, and is generally considered inferior due to OffModel[[Off Model]] art and rampant [[DecompressedComicDecompressed Comic|decompression]]. -->
 
The books are written by [[Michael Stackpole]] and [[Aaron Allston]]. Most of those run directly from the end of one book to the beginning of the next, but ''Isard's Revenge'' starts just after the last book of the [[The Thrawn Trilogy]], and ''Starfighters of Adumar'' is set years later. Each book is prefaced with "Star Wars: X-Wing", but we're trying not to develop [[Colon Cancer]] here. The books are:
