As a huge Star Wars fan, I’ve always been fascinated by the story of Ben Solo. It’s tragic how he fell from the path of a Jedi, especially after Luke Skywalker took him under his wing. He ultimately became the villain Kylo Ren, brilliantly played by Adam Driver, and turned against his own family. What’s really compelling about Ben, and a big part of why I enjoyed the recent Star Wars: Legacy of Vader comic series so much, is his deep connection to his family history – all the way back to his grandfather, Anakin Skywalker, and even Darth Vader. It’s a family drama playing out on a galactic scale, and it’s been central to his character from the very beginning.
