Hello Marvel Fanon Wiki! I'm sorry to disrupt everyone, but I have sad news that you may or may not have heard. That Carrie Fisher, most famous for portraying Princess Leia, in the original Star Wars Trilogy and Episode IIV has just died of a heart attack, she was only 60 years old.

As a fan of Star Wars and of talented performers, this news upsets me deeply. Carrie Fisher truly made Princess Leia a memorable and wonderful addition to the Star Wars universe. A sci-fi franchise that defined an entire generation. So, to see her at such a young age leave us is nothing less than heartbreaking. I wanted to honor her with my Wiki icon and make a thread about it on the Wiki. As it would be nice for the contributors here to maybe just take a minute out of their day to remember a human being who was beloved by millions, and taken so tragically.

Star Wars is published under Marvel Comics currently and is a fellow franchise in the Disney family. I felt it was appropriate to post something like this here, and I hope the Administrators feel the same.
