Deux transfuges des mini-séries Star Wars, le scénariste Charles Soule (Star Wars: Lando Clarissian) et le dessinateur Marco Checchetto (Star Wars: Shattered Empire) collaboreront ensemble sur une mini-série Obi-Wan & Anakin.
L’histoire se déroulera entre les films La Menace Fantôme et L’Attaque des Clones, bien avant leurs exploits en tant que généraux impériaux, racontant l’entrainement Jedi du jeune padawan Anakin Skywalker par Maitre Ben Kenobi.
Il s’agit du premier titre produit par Marvel se situant à l’époque de la deuxième trilogie.
[quote]My main vision for the tone of the story is a samurai movie mixed with a police procedural, as seen through a « Star Wars » lens. Obi-Wan and Anakin aren’t buddies yet, as we see in « Episode II. » It’s absolutely a teacher-student relationship. Anakin is in awe of his master, although he’s definitely asking questions about the Jedi Order and why it works the way it does, as any young teenager would. Obi-Wan is definitely fond of Anakin, but he’s also aware of the enormous responsibility he’s taken on.
In the story, their relationship is at something of a crisis point, which I will let the book describe. While dealing with that, they are flying through space on their way to a rendezvous with a diplomatic fleet when they get a distress call from a planet that’s supposed to be dead and gone (and no, I’m not copping « Wrath of Khan » here…) They investigate, and – things happen![/quote]

Before their military heroism in the Clone Wars, before their tragic battle on Mustafar, and many decades before their final confrontation on the Death Star…they were Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and his Padawan learner, Anakin Skywalker. It’s been a few years since Obi-Wan pledged to train the young « chosen one, » but even as they have grown closer through training, it has been a difficult road. Now, called to a remote planet for assistance, Master and Padawan may be pushed to the breaking point. Writer Charles Soule (Lando, She-Hulk, Daredevil) and artist Marco Checchetto (Star Wars: Shattered Empire, Avengers World, Punisher) bring us a tale of the Jedi at the height of their power…
