![]() The Jedi Order, his family, has been nearly wiped from existance by the treachery of Chancellor-turned-Emperor Palpatine and the clone Stormtroopers. Nearly everyone he ever cared for, ever loved, is dead. He died on Mustafar after striking down his former apprentice, Anakin Skywalker. It is only just recently that we have been granted insight into this period of Master Kenobi’s life, but the result is spectacular. You’d think that this would have been covered long ago, given the incredible range of character-shaping events Obi-Wan has just been through, but you would be wrong. What hasn’t been detailed until now is his exile on Tatooine after Order 66 and the Jedi Purge. ![]() I’m not his only fan–he’s such a favorite that we get adventure after adventure featuring Anakin’s former Master, to the point where I don’t think he ever once had a chance to stop and breathe during the entire Clone Wars. Obi-Wan Kenobi is one of my favorite characters from the Star Wars saga, and if I’m being honest Ewan McGregor’s performance in that role is one of the few highlights of the otherwise-regrettable prequel trilogy. ![]()
