Actually Obi Wan did tell Luke about the purge. “A young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil, helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi knights. He betrayed and murdered your father. Now the Jedi are all but extinct”
@FaitKitsune10 ай бұрын
yea, but saying it like that, I, and I guess a LOT of other folks, simply took it to mean that Vader and the Empire waged war on the Jedi and the Jedi fought and lost against them in battle. Not that they had special hit squads sent out specifically to murder Jedi or anyone Force sensitive. Again, what Obi-wan said was true... from a certain point of view.

Now you can make the argument that he trained him and all and Vader was weakened due to his mechanics...........but you still have to give obi won props. He only lost on the death star to save Luke

I wish Dave Feloni would make a Clone Wars type animation series that focused on the events between A New Hope, , The Empire Strikes Back and and Return of the Jedi to see how everything played out on screen instead of just reading it in comics.. maybe 3 seasons at 20 episodes a season with the first 2 seasons focusing on the events between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back and then season 3 taking place between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.... I think a series like that would be a big hit

Agreed. I don’t understand why so much emphasis has been put on expanding the prequels through animated series, and yet nothing of this kind has been done with the original trilogy, during and after the events of IV, V and VI. Would have been amazing to see Luke’s adventures beyond the big screen movies (aside from the limited live action Mando-verse stuff, of course).

He was in denial and let's not forget that Obi-Wan also told him that Vader betrayed and murdered his father. Obi-Wan can express it as a certain point of view all he wants, but realistically, it was a lie. Intentional misinformation meant to deceive and mislead. So it's only natural that Luke was in denial when Darth Vader told him that he was his father. If he accepted it, he would have to accept Obi-Wan, the old man who he looked up to and trusted as a father figure lied to him. Anyone would have been in denial.

“Although not high class, like his father”??? Anakin grew as a slave. He and his mother were dirt poor. I think Luke grew up in a much better environment than his father. Then you say Luke grew up in a “somewhat” loving home. Owen and his wife raised Luke like their own. Just bc kids today don’t like having a father figure around to help keep them straight doesn’t make Owen a bad father figure. If anything I feel like it does the exact opposite.

Because knowing about order 66 and the Inquisitorius would only have made Luke want to know more about Darth Vader, and that might have led him down a path that neither one of them wanted him venturing down. They were both convinced that Anakin Skywalker was gone forever, that only Vader remained. And they feared that if Luke got tangled up with Vader before he was ready to face him, that it would only lead to his death, and the last hope for the galaxy would die with him. Yoda and Obi-Wan were both operating under a set of flawed assumptions about Anakin/Vader that informed all of their decisions regarding Luke's training. They thought the only way to stop the empire was for Luke to kill both Vader and Palpatine, so him knowing Vader's true identity would only complicate things unnecessarily. And to be honest, that wasn't an unreasonable thing for them to think considering everything that they had gone through.

These side adventures between Episodes are cool but information like this being revealed during this time makes no sense. I didnt know this comic existed until now so bear with me, but i always wondered what Luke really would have done had he seen the footage of Order 66 and seeing his father, before the suit, killing jedi and particularly the younglings. Without his full training there is NO WAY Luke would have been able to handle the weight of this information, and no way he would have forgiven Vader for what he did. I will add that given the outcome of Ep 6 it shows that Luke was still "easy to forgive" Vader in order to pull him out of the dark side even knowing about the events of order 66. IMO this should have been information Luke found out after the events of Ep 6. As he is trying to rebuild the jedi order, finding the remaining records of the jedi and stumbling on the recording of Order 66. It would have been a perfect opportunity for force-Ghost Anakin to speak to Luke about his actions and explain to him the inner turmoil he was going through. This is where we get a better look at Luke's inner-resolve and forgives his father for these atrocious actions.
@daniels790711 ай бұрын
George Lucas really messed up the moral message in the OT. Vader was an unrepentant mass-murderer who *only* betrayed the Emperor to save the life of his own son. Otherwise, he could stand and watch (and feel) Alderaan being destroyed without even flinching. He slaughtered young children. He helped wipe out most of the remaining Jedi. But he got forgiveness even though, as a Sith Apprentice, he was *supposed* to murder Palpatine all along.
