I read this leak/speculation on Bounding into Comics but considering it is Disney Star Wars I can totally see this happening. The working title is also New Jedi Order which leads me to believe it will be giving Rey what Luke's story was in the EU. I love how they didn't want to use it but feel the need to bastardize it. Like that Ahsoka series looks like an Heir to the Empire bastardization.
What would really crack me up would be to see Rey being a grumpy hermit on an island who has given up, and then wait for the critics to call it brilliant and subversive.
Yeah it was weird as there was a slight glimmer with Rogue one (especially with the final battle and Vader appearance) but they blew it all with that film onwards.
Oh yeah it's REALLY easy to make a good sci fi, the 'fantasy tech' is no longer an issue to come up with do to it being explored enough, what you need the focus to be on story and character development.
There's a reason Star Wars, Star Trek are falling down the tubes yet Gundam is so strong because they have a sci fi setting but focus on character development and political intrigue.
Ah on that front too, I mean I sometimes get once in a few months a video from Kane Pixels and he just humiliates Hollywood in comparison and he's just a teenager.
