I try to avoid super-listing in categories whenever possible. Since Darth Vader is part of Imperial characters and Sith characters, which are both sub-lists of Star Wars characters, I don't think Darth has to be listed in the Super-list. Oberiko 01:06, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)

A previous version read that Vader killed Kenobi. In fact Kenobi focuses and then entirely disappears bodily, leaving Vader kicking his clothes in puzzlement. Individuals hit with light sabers in the movie series (Luke Skywalker, Darth Maul, the Tatooine bar victim) suffer searing flesh wounds, not complete disappearance.

Thats because none of them are jedi Knights like Obi-Wan. It's mentioned in several interviews by Lucas that Kenobi learned how to preserve his identity when he died so yes no doubt he was struck down by Vader.

I think Lucas did that just to look cool, like a Wuxia kung fu movie.

Also calling "second-in-command" without qualification is retconning I think. In the Episode 4 he appeared to be under Grand Moff Tarkin.
