Uncle Owen *Really* Hates Him at This Point
The most recent Obi-Wan trailer gave us a biting taste of Owen Lars’ relationship with Obi-Wan by the time the new show begins. But all those encounters, and the occasional brush with Luke as a young boy, mean that actually at this point Owen basically despises Obi-Wan. Several stories across From a Certain Point of View and that first volume of Marvel’s Star Wars comic touch on Owen often resorting to anger and violence to keep Obi-Wan as far away from Luke as possible—so if anything the glimpses we’ve seen of their relationship in trailers so far is downright amicable compared to some of the arguments we’ve seen in the books and comics. Suffice to say, even then, don’t expect anything too buddy-buddy.
