The Star Wars galaxy is vast and the cast of supporting characters that has emerged in the spinoff books and comics is surely in the thousands by now. But one stands out more than almost any other: Grand Admiral Thrawn.
Before he made his on-screen live action debut, as played by Lars Mikkelsen in last year's Ahsoka series, the character was best known for a series of novels written by Timothy Zahn. Those books have since been retconned as "Legends", but Thrawn was such a memorable character that he was eventually made a part of the modern canon in the Star Wars: Rebels animated series.
