THE FORCE AWAKENS SPOILERS AHEAD!!

I said I would do it, and I did it. Project #SaveHanSolo is officially underway with the launching of the petition to bring Han back in Episode 8 or 9.

If you're a fellow Han fan who was angry and depressed when he died, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE sign the petition and spread the word. Reblog this post so as many Han fans as possible see it.

THIS POST CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR THE FORCE AWAKENS.

So yeah, I'm still ultra depressed about Han's death, still grieving him like a close friend died . . . but I've also started thinking about something so incredibly crazy that it just might work.

There are certain fictional characters that you can't get away with killing, even if their canons try to kill them off. Sherlock Holmes, for example, or Spock, or Superman. When their respective canons killed them off, the fans raised such an outcry that they HAD to be brought back to life.

What if Han Solo were one such character?

Hell, Star Wars has brought back dead fan favorites before - the Expanded Universe got Boba Fett out of the Sarlacc and Clone Wars brought Darth Maul back to life.

Could they do the same thing to Han?

Okay, yes, a lightsaber through the heart  - not likely that you'd survive that, but this is Star Wars. This is a universe where a guy can be burned alive and live (albeit having to wear a breather suit for the rest of his life, but I digress). What if something broke Han's fall and then someone from the First Order somehow healed Han's wounds for whatever reason?

Yes, I know Leia felt him die, but what if the dark side or something clouded her senses and only made her THINK she felt him die?

No, I'm not talking about a fanfiction here - I'm talking about ACTUALLY campaigning to bring Han back to life in Episode 8 (or 9, don't care which). If enough fans raised enough of an uproar, maybe Disney, Lucasfilm, and even Harrison would have to listen. So what if it would be fanservice? I've seen fanservice plenty of other times and it's time for THIS fan to be serviced.

So I'm starting this campaign by creating a trend. I'm calling it #SaveHanSolo and I urge every fellow Han fan who was outraged at his death to start using it. I'm also planning on starting a petition and if anyone has any other ideas, feel free to let me know.
