Star Wars could be hinting that Luke Skywalker’s evil clone will soon become a part of the new Disney canon. After rebranding it as the non-canon “Legends” line, Star Wars has borrowed elements from the old Expanded Universe, from characters like Thrawn to entire storylines for the sequel trilogy. A new issue of Marvel’s canon Star Wars: Darth Vader comic book dropped a hint that another Star Wars Legends character, Luke’s clone Luuke, could be the next to make the jump into the franchise’s new canon. SPOILERS follow for Star Wars: Darth Vader #11 by Greg Pak, Raffaele Ienco, Neeraj Menon, and Joe Caramagna.
