A Star Wars fan comic called Skate Wars. Panel 1: A mobile home sitting in a desert environment. Panel 2: Inside the mobile home, Obi-Wan Kenobi gives Luke Skywalker a skateboard. He says, "This was your father's board—" Panel 3: Luke takes the board and Obi-Wan says, "He would have wanted you to have it."
Panel 4: Obi-Wan tugs on his beard and says, "You must learn how to use it, if you're coming with me to Alderaan." Panel 5: Luke sits down at a table and says, "But what can I do? Dad never wanted anything to do with us." Panel 6: Obi-Wan sits across from Luke and says, "He used to be part of The Jedi Collective—he was a great skater. And a good friend." Panel 7: Obi-Wan looks down and says, "Until he signed with Empire."
Panel 8: Luke asks, "He's still a skater, though, isn't he?" Panel 9: Someone standing in the kitchen area a few feet away from Obi-Wan and Luke says, "He's a sellout, Luke." Panel 10: The speaker is revealed to be Ahoska. She's leaning against a kitchen counter and is holding a magazine.
Panel 11: Ahsoka places the magazine on the table in between Luke and Obi-Wan. Luke looks up at Ahsoka and asks, "Yeah, Leia said that—what does it mean?" Panel 12: Obi-Wan interrupts and says, "He knows Leia??" Panel 13: Ahsoka pats Luke on the head and says, "The Lars and Organas accidentally sent them to the same summer camp... I was their counselor..." Panel 14: Close-up of Ahsoka smiling. She says, "It's a whole other movie."
Panel 15: Close-up of Obi-Wan saying, "Luke—there are skaters, posers, and sellouts. Your father let greed consume him." Panel 16: A close-up of the magazine on the table. Obi-Wan's hand is holding it. The magazine's title says, "Skate Life." Darth Vader is on the cover. He's doing a trick on a skateboard. His suit is covered in company sponsor logos and his billowing cape says, "Empire." Obi-Wan says, "He's more billboard than man, now."
