The popular Korean Star Wars web comic, focusing on the story of the original trilogy as told from Luke Skywalker's perspective, is now officially available in English on LINE Webtoon.
Starting today, fans can read new installments of the comic each Thursday and Sunday on the LINE Webtoon website for free.
The comic has had Star Wars fans buzzing because it reinterprets certain events from the original trilogy, leading to speculation over its canonicity. Lucasfilm's Jennifer Heddle responded to fan questions saying the comic exists in a canon "grey area."
Renowned Korean artist Hong Jacga, a Star Wars fan himself, created the comic. In it he reconstructs events from the movies while including main characters, backgrounds and locations consistent with the universe while adding his personal art style. Check out sample artwork from the comic below.
