This December, Marvel Comics is releasing a four-issue limited series titled The Rise of Kylo Ren. Written by Charles Soule with artwork by Will Sliney, the series will delve into Ben Solo's past.

Now, the cover for January's issue has been revealed and, as you can see, it pits Ben and Luke Skywalker against the Knights of Ren. This confirms a few different things; for starters, the Knights clearly aren't Luke's former students who Kylo turned to the Dark Side when he decided to align himself with Supreme Leader Snoke.

Ben must have also been given his "Kylo Ren" title by Snoke after destroying the new Jedi Order alongside the group, earning his place as their leader in the process.

"With the new Jedi school in ruins and fellow students hot on his trail for the murder of their master, Ben Solo flees to the only friend he has left in the galaxy…a man named Snoke," reveals the solicitation text for this issue. "But Snoke has plans for Ben…and ideas about the Force that are as dangerous as they are intriguing for the troubled young Jedi."

"If Ben wishes to be truly free…the answers might lie with the dark side. And with the Knights of Ren," it continues. "But it won’t be the first time he’s tangled with the Knights. In the past, Jedi Master Luke Skywalker journeys to the Unknown Regions and brings young Ben along for the mission. Can even Luke Skywalker stand against the fabled Knights of Ren?!"

It's a shame that none of this is being explored in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker but you have to believe the movie will shed some light on the Knight of Ren's place in the Galaxy...

I want to see a Disney + Show of this. Veteran Luke and young Ben, both chasing the Knights of Ren and the evil Snoke.

@Repian - seeing good hopeful Luke kicking some serious ass might redeem the crap the movies made indeed.

MutantEquality - 10/26/2019, 7:36 AM

@Tufasrox - that’s a hard one though. Knowing how far he falls after being so badass. It might make his fall even more ridiculous. So maybe not redeem them, more about forget about them 😏

@Repian - I can't watch a show knowing Luke and Snoke are dead characters.

DarkSuperman - 10/26/2019, 2:22 AM

This should have been a movie not a stupid comic book

GeneralZod - 10/26/2019, 11:17 AM

@DarkSuperman - comic books are never stupid. But you are right, this should have been a movie, and done before Luke and Snoke were killed.

What the sequels could have been.

GhostDog - 10/26/2019, 4:49 AM

Should’ve been former students of Luke’s who were seduced to the dark side.

Random goons in black who can’t use the force just sounds like mercenaries, who someone of Luke’s power could dismantle easily.

It’s like every single decision that Disney made with Star Wars was the completely the wrong decision....

Comic book cover reveals a better version of the sequel trilogy.

Cuhcoast - 10/26/2019, 9:06 AM

Disney lying again.

KnifeWasTooSlow - 10/26/2019, 10:38 AM

Didn't Kylo kill everyone when Luke wanted to kill him on his sleep?

GeneralZod - 10/26/2019, 11:09 AM

No one cares. Luke and Snoke KIA.

Kyos - 10/26/2019, 11:57 AM

All this will still only lead to a smug force projection of Luke further riling up his mentally unstable mass murderer nephew, while allowing the sister he'd abandoned and the sorry remnants of the Resistance he'd turned his back on to flee. Then he dies alone on an island he'd never left since way before the sequel trilogy had started.
