Ewan McGregor wil dolgraag weer de rol van Jedi-meester Obi-Wan Kenobi spelen en heeft zelfs al enkele ideeën aangedragen bij Lucasfilm-baas Dave Filoni over mogelijke verhaallijnen rondom het Star Wars-personage. Dat zegt de acteur, die hem in meerdere films en ook zijn eigen serie speelde,...

Als het aan Ewan McGregor ligt, speelt hij de rest van zijn carrière alleen nog maar de rol van Jedi-meester Obi-Wan Kenobi uit de Star Wars-films en -series. De acteur zegt dat er nog genoeg te vertellen valt over het personage en dat hij nog wel even de tijd heeft voordat hij te oud wordt...

A Look Back at Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire #3 (1996)

Welcome back science fiction enthusiasts, 20th century pop culture enthusiasts, Star Wars fans and comic book collectors! Today we go back to the year 1996 to examine the 3rd chapter of a very notable Star Wars storyline that took place between the films The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi…Shadows of the Empire!  

With the first two issues of Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire released (click here and here), the overall concept of the storyline has firmly been set and with sub-plots moving. This includes characters and developments that were not reflected nor referenced at in Return of the Jedi. At this stage, there is both excitement and suspense to look forward to.

With those details laid down, here is a look back at Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire #3, published in 1996 by Dark Horse Comics with a story written by John Wagner and drawn by Kilian Plunkett. This is the 3rd chapter of the 6-issue mini-series.  

Early story

The story begins with the gang of Gizman – including the newcomer Jix – who visit Jabba The Hutt in his palace for an important meeting. After expressing doubt about Jix, Jabba tells the gang that he is aware of Luke Skywalker’s presence in Tatooine and he has been signed near the former dwelling of Ben Kenobi. Jabba finds Skywalker more valuable to him dead. A short time later, Jix asked why does Jabba want Skywalker dead when Darth Vader will on pay for him to be living. This causes a bit of tension within the gang.

With R2D2 present with him at Obi-Wan’s old place, Luke Skywalker completed his brand-new lightsaber. Suddenly a laser blast almost hits them both and Luke realizes that the gang (which just met Jabba) is fast approaching them. The laser blast came from Jix who was told to hold his fire. Moments later, Luke takes down the first gang member who arrived using his new lightsaber…

Quality

Like issue #2, the intrigue and twists kept on happening as the pay-offs to the previous issue’s build-up got executed. Indeed, the story here moved Shadows of the Empire’s concept forward gradually and what was shown is both entertaining and engaging.

You will see here Luke Skywalker’s first-ever use of his then new green-colored lightsaber (the same one in Return of the Jedi) as he becomes a target of Jabba The Hutt who has a violent gang targeting him. Dash Rendar, arguably a creative stand-in for Han Solo in this storyline and also the playable protagonist in the Nintendo 64 video game, becomes even more important as he took the risk of involving himself with Luke as the gang attacked. The interaction between Dash and Luke here is believable to follow and makes a lot of sense within the context of this storyline.

What I found captivating here was the scene in which Darth Vader actually (and bravely) objected to Emperor Palpatine’s plan. The scene was pretty short but it was a powerful display of tension and even division between them. Along the way, Prince Xizor remains relevant with regards to the potential events waiting to happen while more of Boba Fett’s struggle being targeted (as the frozen body of Han Solo is a very valuable prize for other bounty hunters) by others was dramatized nicely.

Conclusion

Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire #3 (1996) succeeded in moving the story developments forward while ending up being entertaining enough. The speed bike chase in Beggar’s Canyon along was exhilarating to see and the dramatic moments of the sub-plots had impact. Right now, I am convinced to keep on reading more of Shadows of the Empire.

Overall, Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire #3 (1996) is recommended.

So these two can be double-billed, but the droids have to make unnamed cameos. 😏

The quest for the ultimate Star Wars toy continues…
After coming across these guys on YouTube, I simply had to follow them. They’re now working on a version 3 lightsaber, but in this earlier version managed to speed up the blade extension to instant, as in the movie.
This is SERIOUSLY impressive, and how they achieved it is shown below.

Card #006: Obi-Wan "Ben" Kenobi

Obi-Wan? Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time...a long time...

People give Obi-Wan crap for not changing Luke's last name, but it's not like he changed his own, either.

What are the chances this phrasing is intentional?

I don't think it's zero given AADL's nerd cred

(Don't worry I'm returning the Star Wars book that's overdue today)

Wait, WHAT? How am I just learning today that Ewan McGregor's uncle was in StarWars ep 4, and he played Wedge.

Incontra Obi Wan, il primo cane Chihuahua da pastore: “Come guida lui le pecore, nessun altro” https://www.lastampa.it/la-zampa/2024/11/19/news/cane_chihuahua_pastore_pecore-423649367/ #ObiWan #Chihuahua #CaneDaPastore

Haha, more twitter salvage, from June 2022, this time on #StarWars #ObiWan

Yesterday I watched one of those cheaply made videos about why Obi-Wan was so strong in you know where. I knew right from the start it would be bad and I wasn’t disappointed. They said Obi-Wan was an “average” Jedi! To which I can only laugh loudly.
he was member of the Jedi council
- he slashed Darth Maul in half and faced him once more
- he dueled against Anakin - and won
- he dueled Vader twice and always finished on his terms.
- he finished General Grievous.
- some fans pointed out Kenobi was a master of Soresu lightsaber wielding form, masterful in a defensive art
- never ever do we see Kenobi tempted by the dark side
- he manages to come to terms with having mentored the biggest pest that would infest the galaxy after the Emperor.

Does this sound average to you?
