Star Wars’ Luke Skywalker was Never Taught How to Build a Lightsaber
InStar Wars#34 by Charles Soule and Madibek Musabekov , Luke Skywalker and his Quaker just made it out of No - Space , whereLuke ’s yellow lightsaberwas destroy . While R2 - D2 did his best to repair it , the Kyber Crystal within the hilt was crack , which mean that there was no real way of life to repair it whole . The only thing Luke could do was get a new one , and this meter , he know he had to actually progress it . As Luke mentions in this rule book , his two previous lightsabers never really felt like they were his . Luke found the yellow one fully intact , and the blue one was primitively his father ’s . Luke never build his own , and based on the Jedi text he ’s been researching , building a lightsaber with the Force is an integral part of being a Jedi . And yet , Obi - Wan and Yoda never bothered to teach him .
To be comely , Luke Skywalker was give Jedi breeding more - or - less on the fly , not to mention he was basically an adult who did n’t even possess a youngling ’s base knowledge of the Jedi elbow room . The total galaxy was in the middle of a polite war , and the enemy was hunting everyone associate with Luke – which , apparently , included Luke himself . essentially , Luke did n’t get the best education possible because there was no meter for it . He want to acknowledge the fundamental principle so as to put up a fight against Vader , with the Bob Hope that Luke ’s inherent effectiveness in the Force would be enough to labor him over the boundary to victory . In other words , Obi - Wan and Yoda must have figured that Luke already had a lightsaber , so they did n’t need to squander the cute time they had teach him how to build a mark new one . Unfortunately , that deficiency of foresight has become detrimental to Luke in the current continuity .
As Luke flip over through page after Thomas Nelson Page of the ancient Jedi texts , he only bump explanation on the apparitional importance of a Jedi building their own lightsaber , not the program line on how to do it . While fans know that Luke will eventually figure it out and produce the iconic green lightsaber that was first shown inReturn of the Jedi , this comic confirms that it will be a foresightful and arduous summons . prove that both Yoda and Obi - Wan failedLuke Skywalkerin one major way .
