One of the major mysteries from the gap between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi — when Marvel’s main Star Wars comics are currently set — is how Luke Skywalker created his green lightsaber. It’s a question writer Charles Soule, who’s explored lightsaber crafting before in his “Darth Vader” run and “The Rise of Kylo Ren,” will begin to answer in next week’s issue of “Star Wars,” and we are pleased to bring you this exclusive preview.
