Star Warscomics fill up in the gaps between the films answering the question of " What happened when … " for the consultation . They , like theStar Wars :   Forces of Destinyseries , help us take footstep into a much large cosmos .

Jyn ’s   squad and their efforts helped twist the tide of the battle against the Empire . Rogue Oneput face on a group of " spy " who have gone unnoticed for many years . fan precipitate in love withChurrit Imwe , Baze Malbus , Bodhi Rook , Cassian Andor , the sarcastic droidK2 - s0and of course , Jyn herself .

I thought the honest way to start that was by coming off the back ofRogue Onewhich was more of a war movie take on the Star Wars universe . We ’re kind of starting with a small-scale tarradiddle explicitly integrating with and exposing the New Hope reference to everything that happened in Rogue One . We ’re kick the bucket to the mail revelatory wasteland that was left after the Empire blow out a pickle inJedhaand removed one of the holy sites there . That ’s great for all of our characters .

He went on to add that the sacrifice of theRogue Oneteam will motivate a unseasoned Tatooine farmboy   identify Luke Skywalker to seriously believe taking up arms against the empire . While we see Leia at the end of the motion picture , Luke ’s take on it has remained a secret until this pivotal comic book .

" Through that , we get people like Luke discovering everything that allowed him to get into a place to destroy the Death Star ,   He see out about Jyn Erso and all the people who sacrifice their lives to give him the hazard to be a submarine sandwich . As you’re able to imagine , that ’s going to hit Luke hard .   When I sawRogue OneI immediately thought , ‘ I question what Luke make of all this ? I inquire what Leia makes of it ? ’ Now I ’m in a position where I get to write that . "

Luke Skywalker ’s character discharge , spanning ten , will play an important part in succeeding films , like Rian Johnson’sStar Wars : Episode VIII - The Last Jedi . Seeing just what shape him into the exemption fighter   and how he became the reclusive Jedi master we ’ve determine in theLast Jeditrailerwill make for a fascinating exposé .

Star Warsbackstory never goes out of style and while fans are wait for Luke ’s story to go forward inThe Last Jedithey’ll plausibly have questions about where it began . This mirthful seems poise to serve just that in a timely manner for the farmboy - turn - jedi captain .
