DISCLAIMER: This is a non-profit site for entertainment purposes only. All rights to the characters of Biggles and his friends belong to W.E. Johns. Wedge and the rest of the Fab Four belong to George Lucas and Lucasfilm Ltd. No disrespect or copyright infringement was ever intended. The aim of this site is to promote awareness of Biggles and Rogue Squadron and the webmistress cannot encourage people enough to buy the movies/books/comics involved for themselves, whenever possible.
NOTE: To illustrate this site, I have used pictures from movies, books and comics, besides my own art. The X-Wing: Rogue Squadron and other Star Wars comics are published by Dark Horse Comics and where I have used them on this site I have given the name of the comic and the penciler and/or inker. Most of the pictures from comics were scanned in by myself but in some cases, especially in my 'casting' sections, I got the pictures off the Net and couldn't remember where I got them from, though whenever possible I have written to the owner of the website to ask permission. If you see anything on this site which you think is yours and would like me to remove it or credit you for it, please email me and I will do it gladly. Please inform me of any broken links, mistakes, etc. In addition, I am always happy to hear your questions or comments :) Email: jainafel @ hotmail.com |

Here are some other sites on Biggles and Star Wars you should see, if you haven't already. If you know of a good site that should be here (yours or otherwise), feel free to email me about it!
Biggles
General
The Biggles yahoogroup
The place where all Biggles fans are welcome and introduced to Biggles-o-mania. In the archives of past messages are virtually any topic of discussion you could possibly think of - and more are coming up all the time. Book discussions regularly take place in the offshoot group, the Biggles Book Discussion group.
Captain W.E. Johns en francais
A truly excellent site for all things Biggles by M. Rouquette. Non-francophones can enjoy the pictures, some very rare indeed!
Biggles quizzes at Funtrivia.com
These are some very entertaining quizzes by Jim Mackenzie - not only do they provide a lot of fun, but much information on the Biggles series.
Biggles on the Internet
This site is down at the moment but I'm holding out hope it may not be down for good - it was really good!
Feature Articles on Gateway Monthly
The feature articles on Gateway Monthly include some very well-written ones on Biggles and the other creations of W.E. Johns.
Character-oriented
Joan's Algy site
HRH's Ginger site
Eddy's Von Stalhein site
Star Wars
X-Wing related
Petra's Rogue Squadron Homepage
An excellent site full of information on the X-Wing pilots and their friends, machines, etc by Petra Genske.
L'Encyclopédie Star Wars de SithClan.net
A very good French-language site which gives concise introductions to some of the Rogues and Wraiths and their enemies. (One of the interesting bits of information it volunteers is the claim that Turr Phennir's brother was the TIE pilot shot down by Wedge at the battle of Yavin. Where does that come from? I must have missed that...)
Cover Me, I'm Going In!
This is just one of the many good articles out there about the Star Wars: Rogue Squadron comics. It's a bit out of date though, and was written before the last couple of comics came out. Review by Robert Michael Perry on the EchoStation site.
The Star Wars zone at Dark Horse Comics
The official site for Dark Horse Comics with latest information on Star Wars comics. Besides the Rogue Squadron comics, many of the other comics set during the time of the Rebellion and New Republic are related to Wedge in some way or another.
