Disney has revealed a first look at the upcoming front covers from the comic book adaptation of the Disney+ Original series, “Obi-Wan Kenobi”.

The Disney+ series and comic book adaptation begin 10 years after the dramatic events of “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith” where Obi-Wan Kenobi faced his greatest defeat—the downfall and corruption of his best friend and Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, who turned to the dark side as evil Sith Lord Darth Vader.

The 6-issue miniseries has been written by Jody Houser with pencils from Salvador Larocca, every installment will tell the story of an episode from the TV series. The main cover has been created by Phil Noto, along with variants by Lee Garbett and Taurin Clarke.

Check out the “Obi-Wan Kenobi” covers below:

In an interview with Star Wars.com, Jody Houser spoke about the adaptations:

“Adaptations are how I got my start in Star Wars comics, and I’m always excited to try my hand at another. Obi-Wan Kenobi introduced some fantastic new characters, as well as giving us new insight into old favorites, and I hope fans enjoy seeing a familiar story play out in a whole new medium.”

With Salvador Larocca, adding:

“I’m very pleased to be back in the Star Wars galaxy. After Darth Vader and the main Star Wars titles, now it’s time for me to take on Obi-Wan! I hope all of you enjoy the series as much as I do!”

The new comic book series will be released in comic book stores and online from September. And the entire series is also available to stream now on Disney+.
