Was that the only time Obi-Wan and Luke met?
When The Phantom Menace was released, a stand-out moment was seeing the first time Obi-Wan Kenobi met Anakin Skywalker, the young child he’d eventually chop into pieces. Now, we got to see the first time Kenobi met Anakin’s child, Luke, whom he has a much healthier relationship with. That’s nice and all but once we get to A New Hope, Luke seems pretty aware of “Old Ben” who lives out in the desert. That can’t just be from this one awkward meeting, right? We know that in the comics at least, Obi-Wan crossed closer paths with the young Luke a few times, but the boy was largely unaware of Obi-Wan’s involvement in those moments. We wonder what other circumstances drew the two Jedi together over the years, especially since Owen asked that Obi-Wan keep his distance.
