Welcome to the Legion!

Hey everyone! Jenna Busch here. I was lucky enough to be a part of The Young Turk Network‘s Nerd Alert this week with the wonderful Kim Horcher (one of our upcoming Legion of Leia profiles) and Tim Frisch. In this segment, we talked about the statement George R.R. Martin made about it being easier to kill off important characters at this point in the A Song of Ice and Fire series, which Game of Thrones is based on.

As you may recall, Martin had this to say: “The way my books are structured,” he said, “everyone was together, then they all went their separate ways and the story deltas out like that, and now it’s getting to the point where the story is beginning to delta back in, and the viewpoint characters are occasionally meeting up with each other now and being in the same point at the same time, which gives me a lot more flexibility for killing people.”

Check out our discussion about who we think can’t be killed and who shouldn’t be killed. Leave your picks below!
