SWCIC: Obi-Wan Reflects On A Jedi’s Purpose: From Youngling To Hermit (Obi-Wan 2022 Comics) – Ep 111

A STORM APPROACHES AND OBI-WAN REFLECTS ON HIS LIFE FROM YOUNGLING TO OLD MAN! In this 5-part series, we get an insight into Obi-Wan’s thoughts during his many years, from a youngling at the Jedi temple to a mission with Qui-Gon through The Clone Wars and even one on Tatooine before A New Hope! This is a must-listen for any fans of the Jedi master and works nicely with the Obi-Wan Kenobi series on Disney+!

Issue 1 was released May 4th 2022, issue 5 was out September 14th 2022 and the trade paperback collection is due out December 13th 2022. All issues were written by Christopher Cantwell, with artists for issues 1-4; Ario Anindito, Luke Ross, Alessandro Miracolo and Madibek Musabekov, with Adriana Melo as penciller and Wayne Faucher as inker on issue 5. The colour artists for issues 1-5 are Carlos Lopez, Nolan Woodard, Frank William, Sebastian Cheng and Dono Sánchez-Almara.

Also the (Legends) Clone Wars micro-series Mike mentioned was made by Genndy Tartakovsky (and George Lucas & Henry Gilroy).

Make sure you check out episode 32 of SWCIC for the Journals of Old Ben Kenobi, detailing some of his adventures after the Kenobi series (including his run-in with Wookiee bounty hunter Black Krrsantan) plus ep 11 for the Obi-Wan & Anakin mini-series and ep 31 for his & Qui-Gon’s respective one-shot Age Of Republic comics!
