Summary
- Anakin Skywalker's scar between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith remains unexplained.
- The Dark Horse comic Star Wars: Republic #71 offers a non-canon explanation, depicting a lightsaber duel between Anakin and Asajj Ventress.
- The scar's symbolic meaning is more important than its practical explanation, as it represents Anakin's journey to the dark side and the toll of the galactic war.
