In case you missed the subtle link on the previous strip, Han's full backstory that Jim wrote is now available, starting here.
Commentary by memnarch (who has not seen the movie)
Look at the time indeed! I'm still going through that backstory! I'll get there eventually, though it might take more than a few weeks.
For Corey's campaign, this is either continuing to riff on Voltron somehow in spite of these things not being giant robot related, or ending on a completely different cartoon with giant robots and guns. That wouldn't be out of the question; Annie's campaign started as Twilight and very quickly turned into Van Helsing with the overlap being vampires and werewolves. However, I can't think of anything that would be close to people melting together while still meeting the "the players can't fail" aspect.

GM: Well, I was hoping we could finish the adventure tonight, but...
Kylo Ren: That was some backstory, Jim. Wow, look at the time!
Rey: Yeah. Whoever thought that one person’s story ideas could derail an adventure plan so much, Sally?
Kylo Ren: Hey! Corey was on board with me helping his campaign.
BB-8: Because it was the first time I’d ever run a game, and you said it would be cool.
Rey: Yeah, my mecha pilot got clone backups!
Chewbacca: Until they were all destroyed.
Rey: Well that didn’t matter once we all melted into a global goo of human consciousness.
BB-8: I still don’t know how a campaign about giant fighting robots defending the universe ended that way.
Chewbacca: That’s all right. Neither does anyone else.
