How Did Anakin Get His Scar in Star Wars Canon?

Anakin Skywalker took his share of licks in the Star Wars saga, even before he fell to the dark side of the Force and became Darth Vader. Count Dooku claimed his right hand in their duel at the end of Star Wars: Episode II — Attack of the Clones. But he also had a scar on his face, which he gained sometime between the end of that film and the beginning of Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith. Considering its prominence, and that it didn’t come at the hands of Obi-Wan Kenobi like most of the rest of his scars, the question of its origins looms large.Strangely enough, no canonical explanation currently exists. The omission is curious, not only because of Anakin’s enduring status in the Star Wars franchise, but because the era in which he got it has been thoroughly explored thanks to Star Wars: The Clone Wars. That series more or less reveals when his scar appeared… but not how. Star Wars Legends has a more specific answer, but until more definitive canonical explanations arise, fans continue to speculate.RELATED:Star Wars: How Much Older is Anakin Than Ahsoka?
