Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Comic shows the moment of the Ghost Force army that we have never entered the film

For years, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Fans discussed what could have made that final climatic battle more difficult. Now, thanks to the final number of the adaptation of the Marvel Comics film, we can finally see a powerful scene that has been cut by the film … Rey standing side by side with an army of Jedi Force Ghosts.

The moment of the film in which Rey declares “all the Jedi”? It affects differently when you can actually see those Jedi with her.

In 2019, the film ended with Rey in front of the emperor Palpatine, supported only by the Jedi voices of the past including Yoda, Obi-Wan, Mace Windu, Ahsoka Tano and more. And as he listened to those family voices they gave the fans a cold, the comic book takes a further step forward.

Writer Jody Houseer and artist Will Sliney Go all in, putting those Jedi right there with Rey, fully visible as an army of ghosts of the force. The scene offers a visual representation of generations of Jedi standing behind the young Jedi warrior.

This is a moment that Lucasfilm once considered by including in the film, but for a series of reasons, it never arrived on the screen.

It is interesting to note that his omission may have benefited other Star Wars stories along the way. See Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson) Back Obi-Wan Kenobior Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) appear as a ghost of the force in AhsokaProbably he would not have had the same weight if they had already sprung up with Rey.

Chris Terriowho co-scored the film with JJ Abramsonce touched on this exact topic. As for the ending of the film, he said:

“We have absolutely discussed who would have been there in the end. It is not as if those ghosts of the strength will never seem Rey now that it is really the first of the new Jedi.

“I think he has all those Jedi behind him. JJ was quite clear about the idea that he did not want to remove from the moment Leia eventually appears as a ghost of the strength and the twins finally together.”

As for that final scene on Tatooine, he added:

“This could be in novels, but we talked a lot about how Leia lost her home. Alderaan has disappeared. So, she could never take Luke to see where she grew up like a princess, but Luke could have brought Leia to see where he grew up as a farmer.

“But the twins have never been together (to visit Luke’s childhood farm). So, the idea of ​​seeing the twins together after the sabers were put to rest that it was something that moved a lot from me and JJ”

That emotional thread certainly has merit. But from the point of view of the fans, see Rey, flanked by the spirits of Obi-Wan, Aayla Secura, Kanan Jarrus, Mace Windu, Yoda and more, standing against Palpatine, is the type of Star Wars Fans of the moment live.

Then while while Skywalker’s ascent It may never get a “special edition” to bring it to the screen, the comic fills the gap. At least we can see it visually led to life in the art form of comics.

“The last hope of the Resistance! Rey Gare to face Palpatine, but can stop it before the final order devastates the galaxy? Hope comes from unexpected places while the resistance makes its last position!”
