It’s been another great year to be aStar Warsfan. Disney+ has deepened theStar Warsmythology in so many exciting ways in 2023. This included continuing Obi-Wan and his fallen apprentice Darth Vader’s story in the limited seriesObi-Wan Kenobithis past summer. Now fans can relive the pair’s epic rematch with two new eye-opening giclee posters from Mondo and Acme Archives.
The two posters are a part of artistJason Edmiston’s long-running “Eyes Without A Face” line. “The Master Lament’s” sees Obi-Wan’s weathered eyes covered by the blue glow of his lightsaber while “Fallen Apprentice” has a beaten Dart Vader with the glow of his red lightsaber blending in with the black of his broken helmet. Like at the end of their intense final rematch, you can see one of Anakin’s eyes and the burn scars left behind from his tragic past through the broken part of his mask.
While the only thing mostStar Warsfans can talk about right now is the greatness ofAndorandMandalorianSeason 3,Obi-Wanbrought a lot of satisfying emotions to a galaxy far, far away. In its six episodes, this series was a compelling take on fallen heroes, finding hope in the darkest of places, and gaining the strength to forgive ourselves for our past “mistakes”. This is a series all about accepting your past failures and facing/embracing your trauma. At the center of that idea is the new-found struggle of Obi-Wan finding out that Anakin is still alive. Their two battles in the series are some of the best in all ofStar Wars, with their final confrontation being such a defining and stunning moment forEwan McGregor’s version of the iconic former Jedi Knight. The emotions were at an all-time high in that scene as Obi-Wan, like inRevenge of the Sith, looked into his former friends' eyes to meet his darkness. Only this time Obi-Wan let go of his regret and, at that moment, he forgave himself for his role in Anakin’s “fate.” These two beautiful posters capture that extremely emotional moment perfectly. With their lightsabers lighting the way and both McGregor andHayden Christensen’s uncanny likeness on full display, these are two must-own pieces for any die-hardStar Warsfan.
