Luke's Death?
So how did luke die? It just says he became one with the force, has that been answered yet?
 * How he died hasn't been revealed yet. --Imperialles 20:16, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
 * What we know for sure is that he appeared as a Force ghost in the Legacy series of comics. So as an obvious consequence, he died beforehand. - TopAce (Talk) 15:44, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * What if it was a vision from him from like Tatooine!~ Meesa yoda 17:44, 20 August 2007 (UTC) ~
 * I don't own any of the comics, nor have I read anything about this era outside Wookiee. I guess there is a canon source that directly states that it is a Force ghost, not a simple vision. - TopAce (Talk) 12:52, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
 * You had to ruin my fun i no he died sob sobMeesa yoda 17:43, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

You know, he may not have died, in the conventional sense. Remember what happened with Obi-Wan? How do we know Luke didn't offer himself up to the Force in a similar manner? Only time (and the whims of Lucas) will tell the tale... Cybrarian 22:20, 18 March 2008

Wait...I may just be still in shock from what I read in the article, but did he seriously die in Inferno? My brain isn't processing it...Luke is immortal. Smuggler Freak 03:13, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Something tells me that he's not really dead. It would just be cruel to have JAINA kill Luke by accident. The writers won't let him go like that. I assume we're supposed to think he's dead for a little while, and BOOM he comes to save the day at the last moment. innkeeper 09:34, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually, from what I've read on the Jacen Solo article, it appears he survived. But I haven't read the novel yet, so I can't confirm this. supergeeky1 [[Image:BobaFett.jpg|20px]] The Cantina 16:28, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
 * And I read the novel he didn't die. He faked his death to sabatoge the Anakin Solo.  Someone needs to fix it so people aren't thinking he died.
 * That's what I thought, that he would just "disappear" for a while. Thanks, I was scared for a while there.Smuggler Freak 22:05, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Just a grammatical suggestion :"Luke merged with the Force in a degree which seemed the Jedi Master, physically or as an individual personality, not present on the battlefield anymore." That's not a complete sentence. It needs another verb in it.

If Luke died in 137ABY then he was at least 156 years old because he was born in 19BBY are we sure this is the year he died?
 * 137 ABY isn't the year he died, it's the year when his Force ghost has first been seen. --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) 17:05, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
 * i remember in Inferno when Luke faked his death i was momentarrily dazed like omg i couldn't beleive LUKE SKYWALKER was going to die, then he came back and i was like all rightummm if u need a name find your favorite species ex:ewoks and pick a word from any of the movies ex:menace what do you get ewokmenace don't take it it's mineEwokmenace 22:55, 7 January 2008 (UTC)ewokmenace

Luke vs Gethzerion question
Under Luke's accomplishments, it lists the attack Gethzerion used against Luke as Force Lightning. I may be wrong- that's a high possibility, seeing as I don't have my copy of Courtship out with me right now- but IIRC, the attack was described differently from Force Lightning. Please correct me if I am indeed wrong. If not, should it not be changed? Dewback rancher 01:43, 28 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I think you're right. I sounds more like some kind of heavy force punch (telekinesis): "She pointed a finger at Luke, and before Luke even recognized her evil intent, a ripple of Force slammed into him. White lights exploded behind his eyes, and the right side of his face felt as if it had been smashed by a hammer. [...]He felt the hammer blow to his left temple, [...] Luke realized distantly that Gethzerion's spell had ripped open blood vessels in his brain, [...]." The only Force Lightning I remember in the book was created by Ocheron. --Craven 02:09, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
 * So you agree it should be changed? Dewback rancher 13:01, 28 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes. I changed the sentence, hope it's more accurate now. --Craven 19:03, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Lightsabers
Luke, in the Marvel comics, wields a lightsaber after losing his father's and before constructing his new one on Tattooine. The New Essential Chronology confirms that the Marvel events take place before the Shadows of the Empire events and the construction of his new lightsaber. It should be added in the behind the scenes section. I'm guessing another saber he found at Obi-Wan's. --Master Starkeiller 15:55, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
 * as i have said, ... i don't trust the comicsEwokmenace 22:56, 7 January 2008 (UTC)ewokmenace
 * Comics are usually unreliable as fact tellers.--UESPA 22:35, 28 January 2008 (UTC)


 * i think i should read some of the comics to get sort of a two idd point of veiw i still don't trust them though. I mean they've got these comic/ action figure packs i thought about getting some for the action figures and just now realized you get TWO and a comic book so i willEwokmenace 00:28, 29 January 2008 (UTC)ewokmenace
 * Mind if I but in here? Anyway, I trust the Dark Horse comics.  The old Marvel comics?  The ones where Vader was tinted slightly greenish and had red eyepieces?  The ones where everyone was wearing absurd 1960s Marvel color schemes (like green uniforms on all the Imperial officers and such)?  Yeah, those I wouldn't trust at all.  Cybrarian 05:38, 19 March 2008

There's a possibility, than, the lightsaber near the head of C3-PO(in his suposed "death") could be the one from Luke? Darth Eclipse User:Darth Eclipse 22:21, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Vader's Quest
This article doesn't mention the events that Luke went through in the "Vader's Quest" comic. Having read it in french, I can't take it upon me to add it... (And I think we should add it, but I don't know of it has been considered canon or non-canon...-- Galak Fyarr 17.57PM (Brussels)

Apprentices
Could a registered user please add Kiro to the list of Luke's apprentices? Though brief, and though the man did not become a Jedi Knight, the master-apprentice relationship did occur.
 * rnt u a registered user? <**> its ok Ewokmenace 22:58, 7 January 2008 (UTC)ewokmenace p.s. like any ones going to find out if u weren't
 * i also noticed it's missing more than that like Cray Mingla and Nichos and wasn't Raynar Thul (later known as Unu Thul)Luke's apprenticeEwokmenace 00:34, 29 January 2008 (UTC)ewokmenace
 * Kiro should be added, but not all Jedi trained at the Praxeum should be counted as Luke's apprentices, per say. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 00:37, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

The Luke vs Vader picture
I made some enhancements to the picture on the page. Since it is locked, how can I get it uploaded to replace it?
 * u see that is where i render useless honestly I HAVE NO IDEA <**> Ewokmenace 22:59, 7 January 2008 (UTC)ewokmenace
 * If you upload the image, and it is of good quality, contact any of these fine folks here to have it inserted. If the image itself is locked, contact me on my talk page. The upload file button is on one of the side toolbars; please follow all instructions. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 00:38, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

"ONE" of the most powerful Jedi ever?
According to George Lucas, Luke Skywalker was "THE" most powerful Jedi ever, even going as far as actually "ACHIEVING" the potential of The Chosen One. Why does this say "ONE" of the most powerful? Why not "THE" most powerful. Cannot deny the facts that even the creator os Star Wars himself says is true.. (71.224.69.248 02:07, 2 February 2008 (UTC))
 * I agree
 * Would you happen to have a source for that statement? Or anyone, for that matter? Jorrel[[Image:Wiki-shrinkable.png|20px]]Fraajic  07:39, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
 * If someone can provide a source, then I agree fully.
 * I would say that according to all evidence I've seen, the Exile from Knights of the Old Republic II would be the most powerful Jedi ever. But I haven't read more than a handful of the NJO books or any of the comics, so I guess I can't say for certain. 69.111.74.200 23:33, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if this is real or not, but I found this after a Google search: (Quote from GL)
 * "If Anakin had never been injured and had remained on the light side, he would have become the most powerful Jedi ever. Even more powerful than Luke and Yoda combined. Anakin would have been many more times powerful as a Jedi as compared to being a Sith with no injuries."
 * And as Luke has the same potential as Anakin (should I find a reference for that? I'm not sure where I remember that from...) this should permit him being "the most powerful Jedi ever". Here's the link from where I found the quote: --Nex Terren 01:29, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Um, that's from SuperShadow. Anything from that website is as trustworthy as Richard Nixon.  I wouldn't use that as a source for anything.  Cybrarian 21:11, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, really? Didn't know. Sorry about that. --Nex Terren 02:46, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Yar, he even has a page here at Wookiepedia: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Mickey_Suttle. That guy is infamous for the fake "spoilers" and fraudulent reporting he does on his little website.  Tricksy as a Sith, that one is.  Treachery, his ally is.  Cybrarian 03:11, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I still think that it should be in the article.

Depictions of Luke
This is sort of speculative and I'm just gonna get yelled at, but should we really accept generic cover art as evidence of Luke's appearance throughout his life? He keeps looking progressively younger in many of the images... Many of the novels have generic cover art with no direct relation to the story that could have been commissioned and created at any time for any purpose. They are not necessarily chronologically accurate. 69.111.74.200 23:33, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Your right as i see him progress in his life he seems to keep hes young looking face from the movies, they should give Luke more older looking skin and hair, hes 50 right know.

Powers and Talents
Someone needs to add Luke's flying capabilities-he is a genuine Jedi Ace afterall. Also we need to add the Force Illusion he uses in Revelation when he creates a fake fleet to fool Darth Caedus (which is a Fallanasi level illusion).


 * Thanks

Updating Luke

 * The picture they have of luke is from Return of the Jedi.... Can't we post a more updated one, like from LotF or The one of him in the Dark Nest crisis? Mikey 20:19, 20 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Yea we should put like the Picture of him thats on the Inferno cover.--Darth Revanon 4:24, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Why? The image we have is a live-action, high-quality portrait shot of Luke. There is no policy requiring the main image to be from the latest appearance, either. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 20:31, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Source?
In the Luke's Origins section in the Behind the Scenes section, its says- [Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back Director's Commentary] Is that supposed to be a source? Because it definitely does not make sense. Aqua Unasi 20:49, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Jedi Master
During his first duel with Palpatine (Dark Empire), Luke claims to be a Jedi Master, but in the article says he only became a master after the final death of Palpatine, so when did he really become a master? Grand Master Luke 22:52, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

New Main Image
Is it just me, or does this new image seem less than high-quality? The old image was fine and more recent than this new one from Episode IV. I'm not sure how to upload images, so can someone with the old image or an image of higher-quality than this one please change it back?Darth Anakin 14:49, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I took care of it; thanks for the heads-up. :-) BTW, you can change it back yourself by editing a previous version of the page under the "history" tab; it's called reverting. Cheers. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 15:08, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
