Show notes

Today’s episode will cover something I found to be interesting in the comic series Obi wan and Anakin, issue number 1. During Anakin’s teenage years after episode 1, he was practicing at the Jedi Temple with a hologram training droid that he altered to look, move, and attack just like Darth Maul. As he practiced his moves and showcased his abilities, students and jedi alike watched in interest from the sides. However, from the balcony above, Obi Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu and Chancellor Palpatine (Darth Sidiolus) observed the young Anakin in admiration, speaking of him as palpatine asked many questions. As Obi Wan answered Master Windu’s confusion as to why the boy was fighting what looked like Darth Maul, exclaiming he always porposed detailed questions for him about their duel on Naboo, Palpatine interrupted as he said come now, my jedi friends, a boy of his age altering a training droid in this way, simply to impress his teachers? I would say that is more than unexpected. I would call it…Impressive.
