Following a reader vote, Empire Magazine has unveiled six awesome covers featuring the greatest Star Wars characters of all time.

While most fans will likely agree with the first 4, the final 2 may come in for some backlash - especially when you take into account that the likes of Obi Wan Kenobi and Yoda never made the cut at all.

At any rate, the positioning is bound to promote a lot of discussion, so have a look and let us know what you think in the comments.

Han Solo

Empire - September - Greatest Star Wars Characters


Han Solo is widely considered to be one of the greatest characters in cinema history, so it's hardly a surprise that Harrison Ford's iconic space-smuggler claimed the #1 spot on this list.

Darth Vader

Empire - September - Greatest Star Wars Characters


Again, not a shock to see the Dark Lord of The Sith so close to the top spot. Darth Vader remains one of, if not the greatest movie villains of all time.

Luke Skywalker

Empire - September - Greatest Star Wars Characters


If Vader is an all-time great baddie, then his son has to be considered one of the greatest movie heroes. Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) comes in at #3.

Princess Leia Organa

Empire - September - Greatest Star Wars Characters


Princess Leia is the final character from the original trilogy on the list. The late Carrie Fisher brilliantly reprised the role for The last Jedi, and will return via unused footage for Episode IX.

Kylo Ren

Empire - September - Greatest Star Wars Characters

Bit of a controversial one here perhaps, but there's no doubt that Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) has established himself as a worthy Star Wars villain. Does he deserve this spot over some classic characters that didn't make the list, though? You tell us!

Rey

Empire - September - Greatest Star Wars Characters

Although some will disagree, most fans recognize Daisy Ridley's Rey as a worthy successor to Luke Skywalker and the force-wielding hero that'll carry on the franchise. The girl from nowhere comes in at #6.

Subscribers Only Cover

Empire - September 2018

Finally, we have an awesome subs cover featuring both Harrison Ford and Alden Ehrenreich's takes on Han Solo.

No Obi-wan cover? Seriously?? I don't mind Kylo and Rey getting their own covers, but they should have had an Obi-wan cover.
