Marvel Comics proudly presents Kanan – The Last Padawan, a Star Wars limited comic maxi-series featuring on Kanan Jarrus, one of the protagonists of the Star Wars Rebels TV series. The two story arcs; The Last Padawan and First Blood are written by Greg Weisman and penciled by Pepe Larraz. The Last Padawan takes place during Order 66, while First Blood depicts Kanan’s first foray into the Clone Wars.

Now… a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… Star Wars: Kanan – The Last Padawan! Kanan Jarrus – in STAR WARS REBELS, he’s a cocky, sarcastic renegade fighting against the Galactic Empire alongside the rag-tag crew of the Ghost…but years before, at the height of the Clone Wars, he was known as Caleb Dume, Jedi Padawan under the instruction of Jedi Master Depa Billaba. Neither master nor apprentice ever suspected that the Clone Troopers they commanded would turn on them upon the issuing of Order 66 – the order to execute all Jedi. How did Caleb Dume survive? How did he learn to survive on his own? And how did he become the man we know as Kanan Jarrus? Find out in this Star Wars tale bridging the years between the Clone Wars and Rebels!

Story/Spoilers:
Issue #1, “Kanan – The Last Padawan, Chapter 1: Fight”, It is a dark time for the galaxy. It’s been years since the fall of the Republic, when Chancellor Palpatine gave ORDER 66, wiping out the peace-keeping JEDI ORDER and rising to the role of Emperor. Since then, the Emperor and his Imperial forces have ruled the galaxy with a big, big fist. The people have lived under the yoke of Imperial oppression and the sparks of rebellion have begun in secret. Small clusters of rebels have begun fighting for freedom. One such rebel band is home to KANAN JARRUS, a mysterious former Jedi who has spent years hiding his Force powers and lightsaber. Not even his companions know his true past, that he was once a young Jedi Padawan named CALEB DUME, fighting in the Clone Wars under his master, DEPA BILLABA…
