Star Wars Reveals Obi-Wan's First Major Battle With Commander Cody
Warning! Spoilers ahead for Obi-Wan Kenobi #3
In the latest issue of Star Wars' new Obi-Wan Kenobi comic series, one of the Jedi Master's first major Clone Wars battles alongside Clone Commander Cody has been revealed. Featuring a significant trial by fire following heavy losses at the onset of the war, the never before seen Battle of Abrion Bridge sees Kenobi and Cody becoming true comrades in arms while leading the Grand Army of the Republic's 212th division.
Previously in this new Obi-Wan Kenobi series, the iconic Jedi Master is seen waiting out a massive sandstorm during his exile on the desert world of Tatooine. Reminiscing and writing down his recollections in a set of journals, the first two issues revealed both Obi-Wan's early life in the Jedi Temple as a youngling as well as his time serving as Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn's apprentice prior to the events of The Phantom Menace. Now, it looks as though Kenobi's thoughts have drifted to the tumultuous era that was the Clone Wars.
