Happy Clone Wars Friday!

It’s Luke Week again, so here’s what Luke was up to during the Clone Wars, living that penthouse life. Once he was born, it was all downhill from there.

This adaptation may censor Anakin's mass murder, but it does get the number of moons correct.

It’s Anakin Week again! Yesterday I shared a panel of young Anakin rescuing a womp rat on Tatooine; today, here’s a panel of Anakin after lashing out at a group of attacking animals. Though he struck in self defense, in context this violence is still a failure, since Obi-Wan was able to calm his animals down.

(Interestingly, during the arena monster battle in “Attack of the Clones,” Anakin is the one who calms his monster down. Nothing is simple with these two!)

The two comics were created by two different writers -- two different publishers, even -- but they make an interesting narrative together. Though his childhood on Tatooine was difficult, Anakin took every opportunity he could to be kind and generous. His time as a Jedi, however, was more stressful, with more high-stakes situations and moral quandaries. He obtained more power, and he faced more vicious opponents, until violence and death became more and more normal for him. So much for learning control...

I love animals a lot, but Star Wars -- like a lot of adventure-genre fiction -- treats them pretty terribly. So I always appreciate when characters are good to animals, or at least feel bad when they are mean to them.

“Obi-Wan & Anakin” (trade paperback). Marvel. July 19, 2016. Writer: Charles Soule. Penciller and Inker: Marco Checchetto. Letterer: Joe Caramagna. Colorist: Andres Mossa.

I especially appreciate the funny comments and tags, and I love when people express interest in reading the comics that I reference. This blog helped me get through a pretty dark place. Things are looking a little better for me now, but I still intend to keep this thing going. At a time when my inspiration and motivation have been so low, I am proud that I have been able to sustain this project. I hope you enjoy it too!

I swear this weird, random, extremely corny book has the most endearing, humanizing, thoughtful interpretation of Anakin out there.

I re-checked the covers for an author credit and there is none, but there is a “special thanks” to Scott Ciencin and Marc Cerasini, two prolific children’s genre writers. Wookieepedia credits Scott Ciencin only, for some reason, and no other wiki I can find for either of these authors lists this book. If they’re trying to convince me Anakin really did write this book, the immersion is airtight!

This week's theme: Show, Don't Tell!

(This analysis has some mature humor so be forewarned!)

Just gonna whip out my liberal arts degree for a second: if there’s one central metaphor for Star Wars, it’s that the Empire is America. If there’s a secondary metaphor, it’s that lightsabers are penises. Like, as much as Excalibur and Andúril and the Auto 9 and any other thematically rich phallic object are (metaphorical) penises. If you don’t believe me, look at Palpatine’s.

The main way Star Wars contributes to this trope is by connecting the swashbuckling object to fatherhood (in a solemn, thematic way) and puberty (the Jedi get their lightsabers as young teenagers) and even performative identity (“this weapon is your life”). Lightsabers, whatever they symbolize, can be a complex and interesting metaphor, because as much as the aesthetic of the franchise reveres them, the storyline does not: every important lightsaber duel ends with either the villain winning or the hero winning at a terrible price. BDE won’t save you; only learning a painful moral lesson can do that. Compare this to Lord of the Rings, where Aragorn’s sword pretty straightforwardly makes him king.

But one Star Wars property makes the dick metaphor a lot more obvious, and a lot more light-hearted: Henry Gilroy’s strange little comic, “A Jedi’s Weapon.” Though the text of the story tells of a queen who steals Anakin’s lightsaber, the horny imagery shows that the whole thing is an elaborate, heavy-handed dick joke. As a big fan of Anakin, I absolutely love this for him, since giving into sexy temptation after a life of repression is his whole thing.

The most charming part of this comic’s metaphor is when it says, “Make Love Not War!,” which is a radical enough statement here on Earth, but even moreso in the eternally violent-but-chaste galaxy far, far away:

You tell him, girl!!!

Noooooo!!!!

The comic really must be seen to be believed. If you don’t mind getting the ending spoiled, I hid it under the cut with some final thoughts.

“A Jedi’s Weapon.” Dark Horse. May 4, 2002 (Star Wars Day and the first ever Free Comic Book Day!). Writer: Henry Gilroy. Penciller: Manuel Garcia. Inker: Jimmy Palmiotti. Letterer: Steve Dutro. Colorist: Guy Major.

I mean, I just had to show these panels. It’s just so funny. Anakin is worried about telling Obi-Wan he lost his lightsaber, and the whole time Obi-Wan had taken it. Right off this lady’s butt. This is peak Star Wars. I love their ridiculous, toxic relationship so much.

An extra panel today to wish a very happy 40th birthday to the best forehead in the business, Hayden Christensen. Would you believe I am making brownies to celebrate? I hope he got to hang out with Ewan today as they film their new show.

This week's theme: Droids!

These notes from Anakin’s journal are a lot to unpack. How does this random little book have more unsettling, grim foreshadowing than the entire Clone Wars TV show?

We all know that Anakin will one day become “more machine than man,” so I love that this book emphasizes his childish emotional connection to droids -- not merely as objects, but as (superior) beings. Though the movies, especially the original trilogy, present droids as innocent and silly, Anakin attaches himself creatively to their capacity for violence and decay. This tragic villain! I love him!

This week’s theme: OTPs!

My fellow Anidala shippers, behold this embarrassing sketch from Anakin’s diary, which Random House published for all the world to see just before Attack of the Clones came out. We love to see it.
