Luke is training to be a Jedi while Leia, in the comics, is annoyed with him for seeking that over helping the Rebellion. But - and here's another guess - I don't think she would've done so within the original trilogy. Leia never mentions Kanan or Ezra in the Marvel Star Wars comics, but - and again, this is speculation - I think it's a safe bet that she would've at some point mentioned them to Luke. Maybe Leia would've met Ahsoka at some point through Bail, but then Ahsoka "died." But with Kanan and Ezra - Leia did directly meet them, and knew that they were Jedi. And I think that, if they were ever going to be mentioned to Luke in canon so far, that would've been it.īut then there's the sticky wicket - Leia.įor Ahsoka, I think I want to say that she didn't know about her. #Star wars rebellion logo facebook banner seriesThis is sort of working with negative space, but the Marvel Star Wars comic series never mentions Kanan or Ezra. And the other just sort of disappeared, we don't know about him. It wouldn't really help Luke to tell him "Yeah, there were these two Jedi with us a while back! Oh yeah, and then one died. First off, here's the thing about Kanan and Ezra - as much as they helped the Rebellion, they're both just gone now. But, in this series, set between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back, she never interacts with Luke or the crew.Īgain, this is a bit of speculation, but I don't think that any of the Rebellion fighters who knew about Kanan and Ezra would have mentioned it (Again, I'll mention Leia in a bit). They were prominently working in the Rebellion, and it is confirmed in the Marvel Star Wars comic series that Hera is a general in the Rebellion at this point. Luke never met him, so he couldn't hear about Ahsoka from Bail.Īt the end of Rebels, set two years before A New Hope, Kanan dies and Ezra disappears. Even when Ezra saves her in season 4, it seems clear that Ahsoka is joining Sabine to find Ezra, not rejoining the Rebellion.Īnd then there's the person she worked the most closely with - Bail Organa. However, in season 2 of Rebels, Ahsoka is seemingly killed by Vader. You are correct in mentioning that Bail was in direct contact with Ahsoka and worked with her. So I think it's fairly safe to assume that, before A New Hope, Luke wouldn't have known about the Rebellion Jedi. And, this is a bit more of speculation on my part, but I don't think the Empire would be making a concentrated effort to let every planet know that there are two Jedi in the Rebellion - that would make it seem as if they had a chance. Despite the pervasiveness of the Rebellion across the galaxy, we can see Luke doesn't have an intimate knowledge of it from Tatooine. Rebels takes place fifteen years after Revenge of the Sith, four years before A New Hope, where Luke joins the Rebellion. Kanan, Ezra, and Ahsoka all worked with the Rebellion, but none of them did so at the same time as Luke. I think time period is an important factor in this. Is there any evidence that Luke knew about these earlier Rebellion Jedi? If Leia and C-3PO both knew about Force-users (and indeed Jedi) who had worked for the Rebellion in the past, it seems possible that they might have told Luke. Worlds that ignited a spark of rebellion. WHOOOOSH! Then brave rebels far away began spreading the word from What’s more, former Jedi Ahsoka Tano served as the leader of the Rebellion’s spy network from shortly after the fall of the Empire to several years before the Battle of Yavin, and was certainly in regular comunication with Bail Organa.Įven C-3PO seemed to know something about Ezra, at least: They even were known to Princess Leia ( Rebels: "A Princess on Lothal"). Kanan Jarrus and his Padawan Ezra Bridger were involved in a variety of Rebel Alliance missions, as detailed in Star Wars: Rebels. Luke Skywalker is certainly the most famous Jedi to work for the Rebellion, but he’s not the only one.
