hey guys i'm giving away a hundred bucks in today's video all you gotta do is
comment your favorite star wars characters
oh yeah and please check out my other channels it would mean a lot to me
all the info is in the description good
luck if you would join us hey everyone how are you all doing
welcome back to another episode now normally i like to bring these comics to
life in full fashion like i always do however
in this one we're gonna just run through the basics of what the story is
in part five of this issue because i really want to talk about the ending of
this one as it really has the juiciest parts and
then it ends so let's get right to it now if you guys
don't remember i've covered a few of these from this
issue star wars and this one is number five it takes place right after episode
five when vader reveals to luke that he is his father let's get a little
synopsis of what's going on luke skywalker recently lost his
lightsaber in a duel with darth vader the dark lord revealed that he was
actually luke's father the former jedi anakin skywalker luke
fled instead of joining his father and turning to the dark side of the force
luke is more determined than ever to become a jedi despite the shocking
revelation he has embarked on a quest to find a figure who has appeared to him in
several visions through the force this mysterious woman may be a jedi and
may hold the secrets to shaping luke's destiny we start the comic with
vader scouring the galaxy for luke you can imagine this is exactly what
vader would do at this time he enters a cantina
and finds this kid who looks like luke but is just impersonating him
yeah i can take that job fly you there no problem
i mean i am luke skywalker i'm the best pilot in the galaxy
just ask rd here she was right there with me handling my targeting computer
for that last run right you claimed the name skywalker
no i didn't i was just trying to get some
work i'm not my name it does not matter by tomorrow no one will remember
you ever lived vader discards of the trash
trying to impersonate his son and carrying on his last name as all
skywalkers die including anakin vader gets mad at the
lieutenant for leading him to false leads and says he
has business on vendaxa and that's the last of him that we see
well pretty much except in his flashback luke arrives at the planet serelia now
the reason luke is at this planet is because he had a forced vision of a
woman who was calling out to him and finally he's going there the planet
is a great place for fishing it's a hub for that actually luke comes
across a fisherman and he asks her to straight out bluntly
are you a jedi and the most heaty thing she could do instead of just saying no
she blasts out of there on her shit luke and r2 track her down
they go through some bumps and bruises along the way and we even get luke
saying that he loves sand i ever tell you how much i love sand so
it's cannon luke is really not like his father in
that sense the force leads him to a bit of a booby-trapped cave
eventually landing in a cell which starts to fill up with water
luke reaches out feels the force when he sees the woman is over him what are you
trying to do boy you think you've got enough of the
force in you to hold back the sea do or do not there is no yeah i've heard
of that one why are you here what do you want from
me i already told you the force sent me a vision i saw you you
were calling to me i don't mean you any harm i'm training
to be a jedi like like you i'm no jedi boy and in my
book anyone who wants to be is a fool she hits the secret button
within the stone wall and the water starts to deplete saving
luke you're strong in the force stronger than me i think but i do have
one thing i'm pretty good at i can read people tell when they're
lying and you are telling the truth you're not one of
the hunters you're just a poor deluded kid
my name is verla she kind of antagonizes luke
by saying that hey so you're in the jedi business eh what happened you basically
just made a rock wiggle once and now you
think you found destiny she goes on to call him a sucker which
kind of shows you that i guess there are a lot of force
sensitive people out there in the galaxy but they're just not really strong
and just because you can make something wiggle or tremble or move or tip over
doesn't mean that you're ready to become a jedi or that you even can be
and this is where things get really interesting in the comic that i really
wanted to focus on luke asks what do you mean who are the
hunters well you're really in over your head no
pun intended someone told you all the good stuff about the jedi
bright warriors of peace and justice but they skipped all the bad
you ever wonder why there aren't more jedi around
if it's so great wouldn't more people want to do it i'm guessing whoever
taught you about the force didn't mention
the inquisitors or the purge the purge asks luke you don't know anything do you
i already didn't think you should walk the jedi path
now i know you shouldn't she goes on to explain order 66
and this is really the first time in canon that luke hears about order 66
and gets some visions about it if she's able to transfer these visions to his
head or what he can see through the force or
feel through the force or whatever it may be however it works
at the end of the clone wars when emperor palpatine took power
he declared the entire jedi order to be traitors he issued order 66
and most of the jedi died that very day not just full nights either
padawans young ladies that was the purge order 66 still stands
jedi are to be killed on sight even people who might be jedi
people like me that's why i ran when you first saw me
the empire sent out powerful force users dark side adams to hunt down
any jedi survivors they were called the inquisitorius
but their boss he was worse than any of them and he's still
out there the monster of monsters pure true evil darth
vader
now this is a pretty cool image this makes you wonder if all of these bodies
that vader is towering upon and standing on if they're
actually jedi or if they're just bodies they're just rebels or whoever
you know what i would really like to see for them to segue to and make a comic
after this one because we've gotten of course luke's story after the empire
strikes back before return of the jedi which we're covering right now
and we've gotten vader after revenge of the sith i would really like to see
vader hunting down more of the jedi during the empire so
during the original trilogy if he did anything like that
as verla says order 66 is still very much alive
to this day and this day is during the empire
after the empire strikes back so there really is no expiration to order 66 as
long as palpats is in charge let's continue luke obviously gets a
reaction out of this and she starts to read his mind and feel
his thoughts through the force she starts to freak out completely she
begins to get these visions of luke's hand being cut off a vader saying
i am your father she realizes that he is
darth vader's son yells it out and luke says no it's a lie
i know it's a which tells me that either he's trying
to lie to her or he truly believes that it's
impossible that there's no way vader is his father which doesn't make
sense to me i don't think that's the case i think he's just lying to her
because in empire strikes back at the end when
he's already rescued by leia he has a forced connection with his
father where his father vader calls out to luke and he springs
up and says father and then of course you know he
travels back and hopes ben can hear him and
says ben why didn't you tell me luke starts to drown in the water
and that's the end of the issue we'll have to wait for the next one this one's
really exciting for many reasons we've had so many
different stories in legends some even being r2 showing holograms of anakin and
padme and things that have happened during order
66 finding out through third parties and this and that but
finally we see it here for ourselves that this is the first time
luke gets to learn about order 66 from this mysterious i assume survivor of
order 66 verla so i'm very excited to see what's in
store for luke in the next comic in the next issue
and of course in the next vader issue which actually comes out
tomorrow i'm looking forward to that as well and i hope you'll be there with me
so i can bring it all to life i know i said i wouldn't bring this one to life
but i can't really help myself sometimes
it's just kind of fun anyways have an awesome rest of your day thank you for
watching let me know what you think in the comments below
and i'll catch you in the next one until then remember the force will be with you
always
