Luke Skywalker Battles Zombie Stormtroopers in Epic Star Wars Fan Art
Legendary Jedi Master Luke Skywalker battles “Death” Troopers in a new piece of epic Star Wars fan art. George Lucas’ A New Hope introduced audiences to Mark Hamill’s humble moisture farmer on the fictional desert planet of Tatooine. That first film saw “Old Ben,” aka Obi-Wan Kenobi, draw young Luke into the Rebel Alliance’s struggle with the Galactic Empire, Darth Vader, and Emperor Palpatine, whose totalitarian agenda is enforced by battalions of stormtroopers with a famously terrible aim.
As the original trilogy’s main protagonist, Hamill's Luke ostensibly became the face of Star Wars alongside his fallen father and those white-plated infantrymen. Following Disney’s acquisition of Lucasfilm in 2012, Hamill has reprised his role in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, The Mandalorian, and The Book of Boba Fett (thanks to the ever-evolving use of body doubles and CGI). Taking place directly after the original trilogy—as opposed to decades later—Disney+’s shows have gifted fans with a look at Luke Skywalker in his prime as he makes quick work of Dark Troopers and trains Grogu/Baby Yoda. Still, there are plenty of things audiences haven’t seen Luke do. For example, the Jedi Master has yet to battle undead stormtroopers.
