Aaron uses the unbridled crime of Tatooine as a way of testing those limits, putting Ben in positions where to help the innocent would be to risk the very reason he hid away in the first place. We meet Ben shortly after the events of Revenge of the Sith, and it's clear that the character is still very much getting used to his own forced limitations.
Writer Jason Aaron does a solid job establishing the tone of the read as quickly and efficiently as possible, setting up a great conflict of self that permeates the piece.
Told in a journal entry fashion, issue #7 plops us right in to the everyday struggles of the self-exiled Jedi Master. It's an insightful start to what will hopefully be a running saga, but it also fails to fully measure up to the other series' highs. Told in a self contained one-shot ripped from the pages of Ben's own private journal, the issue offers a pointed look at a man who walked away from it all for the presumed greater good.
Star Wars shifts it's hyperdrive in issue #7, turning its lens towards everyone's favorite former Jedi general/current hermit, Obi-Wan Kenobi.
