I will never forget when i first saw this animation more than a decade ago. It got all the way into my mind for so many years. Knowing that this was an adaptation of a comic was something i always imagined, but never knew until very receantly.

@@alexthedemon2203 this channel uploaded it 6 years ago. It was made WAAAAYYY before that. I also remember watching it when I was 8 or something. I think Mauls first legs in the Clone Wars is a reference to this fan animation.
Owen is a good man, but like a lot of people on Tattoine, he thinks burying his head in the sand will protect him and his family from rest of the galaxy. Plus his brother Anikan also trained to be a Jedi, n what happened? Darth Vader. He is worried that same could happen to Luke.
I wish more characters in any media would make such bizare entrances and have no one question it. Obi Wan rising from the sand for no reason was the funniest thing ever.
bcuz he's bad ass! & also he's Luke's guardian n stalker-i mean watcher, lol butt seriously, Owen doesn't want him around so what else can he do. what u would u do in his position? ... but it does raise n interesting question...how often n for how long does he normally do this? lol
Emerging from the sand. i love it. absolutely hilarious. that was the best part, but i appreciate it all. you did good. i appreciated all the extra water vaporators too. Very like how we want to visualize if not always how it is. Very good. very good animation.
Maul’s death in Rebels was so much more meaningful. There’s a lack of development in this version of Maul, at least compared to what we have in canon. Maul died at the hands of Kenobi, and in his final moments he no longer hid the vulnerability he had felt for so long. Maul is a very tragic character, one who lost his name, his brother, his mother, all to the Sith. He coped with anger. And in his final moments, Obi-Wan comforts him. They both relish the fact that the Chosen One (whom they think to be Luke) will restore order and destroy the Sith once and for all. “He will avenge us.” No it’s not flashy. It’s no Battle of the Heroes. But the fighting doesn’t matter. It’s never mattered. What matters are the story and the characters in it. I couldn’t think of a better way for him to go.
I agree. It's a lot more symbolic that way. It's less about the fighting, and more about the meaning behind it. Maul had so much pent-up hatred for so long that all he could think about was killing Obi-Wan and getting his revenge. Nothing else mattered to him in life. His anger and madness blinded him. This is demonstrated in Maul's actions: if you watch the scene where Maul rushes Obi-Wan, you see that he tries to use the same move that he used to kill Qui-Gonn, a choice that was probably symbolic to Maul. However, Obi-Wan was anticipating this, and knew exactly how he would counter it. He killed Maul mercifully, and with emotional detachment- like a Jedi should. He even laid him to rest himself, when any other might have just tossed his body aside in the desert and gone about their day. I think all that ultimately says a lot more than a zany lightsaber battle culminating with Maul being shot in the head.
This clip is so great I wish there were more animations based on Legends I would like to see an animated version of the combat of A'Sharad Hett and Obi Wan
I spent so much time on flashportal back then. Can't believe how amazing it was back then vs. now lol. Artists and animators have come so far online since then.
I like the homage you try and give to the original 03 Clone Wars style. If there is ever a fan film contest in the future this should definitely be an entry. I hope you further your career in this as well, you got potential here.
Who else thinks that THIS should have been what we got in what those wretched, soulless, corporatist hacks Disney barfed out? "Kenobi" was a disgrace. But this... this is pure gold.
This isnt a alternate version, this is a animated version of a comic called star wars visionarys from 2005,technically rebels is one alternate version of this
In my opinion, this is way better than in Star Wars Rebels. The fight I mean. It’s to bad this is in Legends. This flash vidoe made me want to believe that Darth Maul survived. It’s more reasonable explanation than just his mere hatred for Obi-Wan kept him alive. Ik that’s what kept him alive but still, the idea of him surviving his injury in the clone wars is silly. In the end, I’ll give them credit for making Darth Maul a more relevant character and less minor. I think the idea of Darth Maul having a small role in the phantom menace was dumb concerning he was the antagonist for phantom menace.
Honestly wish that Darth Maul hadn't been brought back for TCW and Rebels. I think this would've been a great way to end an Obi Wan Kenobi stand alone Movie. Especially if they brought back Ewan McGregor and Ray Park to do it.
If you watch the director's cut version of Revenge of the Sith, Obi Wan hands over the baby to Owen and then proceeds to bury himself outside of Owen's house. That scene was removed due to time constraints
I have some teories 1-Because vader hates the sand 2-because no one would think that a master of the high ground is under the ground 3-because obi wan is so baddass that he can survive under the sand? 4-because this doesn't make any senses?
This material belongs to "Star Wars: Infinities", so it has always been considered OFFICIALLY by the "Holocron Continuity Database" overseen by "Leland Chee" for Lucas Licensing as N-Canon or Non-Canon; “Before the Dark Times, before the Empire.” *But I love it anyway! 🤩👍 -This one is much better than the version of "Obi-Wan Kenobi Vs Darth Maul" by "Dave Filoni", that seems to come from something like "Bushido Blade"(I guess that is what happens when someone confuses the word "based" with the word "is" or "same").
Anyone else notice Obiwan's old lightsaber hilt style from Ep. 2 AOTC and not the hilt he would have been carrying during this time period over from Ep. 3 ROTS?
Ive missed this. I animated this back in 2000 something for newgrounds. Thanx for uploading this ❤️
Now I want a remake of this.

Intense nostalgia with this one. This is from new grounds way back in the day. Good times.
Props to the original creator for using Bruce Timm’s art style for this short; I’ve always enjoyed that simplified, angular look
Reminds me more of the gendy clone wars style but now that u mention it I can see these 2 styles mixed.
That's no sand people...
THAT'S A MAUL!!
Isn't he a little short for a maul
Its too angsty to be a Maul ;)
I remember watching this when I was 6 years old, I’m now 22 and it still holds up.

Obi Wan is the master of a great entrance he jumped down for Grevious and literally rises from the ground for Maul
I like that in rebels obi says that he will take care of this old wound when maul shows up
Obi came out of the sand cuz he knows anakin doesnt like sand and is his only protection against him
Lmao
plus its just such a great horror movie move, and also from the movie dune
Interesting use of Bruce Timm's style for this.
johntheechidna1 This style was based off the 2003 Star Wars Clone Wars tv series.
Winston Poptart Nope, it’s pretty clearly based on Timm’s art style
Is that like based off the animation of Batman the animated series?
Is it just me... or is this significantly better than anything from the clone wars etc. This should have been Star Wars Obi Wan.
I agree!
I also made a dub of this on my channel if you are interested.
Does anyone still not like uncle Owen? He did have a point.
i think that if owen allowed luke to be trained by obi-wan then he would be more powerful
Owen is a good man, but like a lot of people on Tattoine, he thinks burying his head in the sand will protect him and his family from rest of the galaxy. Plus his brother Anikan also trained to be a Jedi, n what happened? Darth Vader. He is worried that same could happen to Luke.
@@AMPMASTER10 Good Point
Adventuring killed his half brother. He doesn't want the boy he raised as his own to die too.

To have a higher ground
well anakin said he hates sand....
@@LemonCupcakeVRInfinity lmao,if Vader went tatoin and saw obi wan do this,he would be terrified

but it does raise n interesting question...how often n for how long does he normally do this? lol
Top anime wtf moments

Oh yeah? Well, did Rebels have Obi Wan rise from the ground and not be questioned?
Checkmate
Butt Nuts thats funny shit
While I did like his death in rebels, the depiction of maul in rebels leading up to death did not do his character justice
100% Filoni wrote a most fitting end for Maul and the Obi Wan arc.
Fortner Films this is a cool fight but yes I do like the other death better
I think I prefer the confrontation in Rebels a bit more.
Sapphirewingthefurrycritic They’re both based on the same Star Wars Tales comic.
Nah rebels version makes Maul seem like an idiot
I hate to disagree with you, but Old Wounds makes Maul seem like less of a weakling
I agree. It's a lot more symbolic that way. It's less about the fighting, and more about the meaning behind it. Maul had so much pent-up hatred for so long that all he could think about was killing Obi-Wan and getting his revenge. Nothing else mattered to him in life. His anger and madness blinded him.

I think Filoni brought back Maul because he read this story.
Why tf is maul ripped?
Ethan Lambert art style
why not
Ethan Lambert He is under his cloak in the films
Working out is a great stress reliever, and coping mechanism after traumatic events.
*film*
I wish someone would make a life action version of this infamous Star Wars comic. :)
we gonna need usain bolt to run that fast
Rising out of the sand
The Highland P.c i hate sand
How else did he hide from Darth Vader?
estonia ball GENERAL KENOBI
the most shocking part about that is nobodys mentioning it in the comments :,D WHy tf was he in the sand ;,D
Why was he there?Whats the purpose??
This clip is so great
I wish there were more animations based on Legends
I would like to see an animated version of the combat of A'Sharad Hett and Obi Wan
yes
This wasnt legends, this was non-canon to both continuities
Mauls fucks up owen, then Obi wan fucks up mauls arm and cuts it off.
Maul: "Again with this shit. my legs now my arm."
Obi Wan seems to have a thing for cutting off limbs. Something Anakin learned from him.
I spent so much time on flashportal back then. Can't believe how amazing it was back then vs. now lol. Artists and animators have come so far online since then.
This very video was the reason i wasn't surprised when it was officially announced Maul was alive.
Wow, I haven't seen this in ages! Takes me way back, man.
This is ancient. I almost thought I imagined this.
Same here, I've tried to hunt it down every other year when it crossed my mind.
Someone explain to me why he came out of the sand
Nobody seems willing to answer that question |:S
Because sand is Vader-proof
Because no one will ever search a guy that mastered the high ground under the ground
Because obi wan is watching luke
@@minakostova1952 But why from under the ground?
So Obi Wan finally uses the low ground
He used it against Maul the first time
"Its-a me, Maulio!"
More people need to see this, you deserve so much more
I like the homage you try and give to the original 03 Clone Wars style. If there is ever a fan film contest in the future this should definitely be an entry. I hope you further your career in this as well, you got potential here.
Thank you for posting the full version with sound!
Great job! Really awesome effort and the rise of Obi Wan was a very cool touch.
I didn't know this story had been animated, it looks like the clone wars. Needs a remaster.
After watching the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, I right now wish Darth Maul was in it.
Would've love to see them in a live action rematch.
and then years later, star wars rebels used this very idea.
That should be a part of the Obi wan Kenobi movie
How would that fit into canon ?
this is simular to what happened in rebels and rebels is canon
Nathan Hills that movie comes before episode 1
Nathan Hills I agree
Harry Warburg oh never mind, My head was out of place
Maul more sounds like Palpantine xD
But cool Animation!!!!
fun fact: the voice actor for Starkiller from the Force Unleashed is able to do both Maul and Sidious voices
Actually sounds more like Cad Bane

We kinda, sorta got this in Rebels. Maybe not this version, but the closest thing to it.
Still a big ol' meh. @@finchborat
This is so much better than what we got at Rebels.
Immediately what I thought as soon as I saw Luke and Owen seeing Maul running right towards them.
It's 2019, I still love watching this (I know this was posted in 2017, but I meant the other older videos. There's one that's like 11 years now)
It's amazing how you adapted the comic
Although Maul stays dead as far as my film purist mind is concerned, I much prefer _Old Wounds_ to always losing TCW and Rebels Maul.
And to think that the actual final fight between them was somehow even more badass.
I really love this! Great job XD
This is very old right? Im 16 now, and i Think i remember first Watching it when i was 10 maybe? Liked it back then and still does👌
Kristian Vejrup this was released in 2017
MrPlays MrGames Yeah on you tube but i Think i Saw it years ago somewhere else
Kristian Vejrup ok
It says in the description 2005
2005 was when the original comic was published, not the animation
Thanks so much to have animated the comic
Fantastic. I remember seeing this the first time on NewGrounds!
I remember watching this so long ago
It's clear that Obi-wan was hiding underground from Vader.
Sucks we didn't get a duel like this in Rebels but leave it to Disney to disappoint everyone I reckon
Honestly, Twin Suns is a better ending for Maul's story.
I loved reading this comic, It was so intense and satisfying. To bad it wasn't canon
Awesome video! I remember that comic!
Not a huge fan of the animation style or this storyline but you did a great job and I appreciate the work you put into this!
This is really old. early 2000s
An alternate version of the final duel between Kenobi and Maul. I like it. It was unexpected, and I think that’s what I liked about it.
This isnt a alternate version, this is a animated version of a comic called star wars visionarys from 2005,technically rebels is one alternate version of this
Very cool. Has a fun 80s vibe to it.
Why was Obi-Wan under the ground?
Apparently, Obi-Wan also mastered the low ground as well.
Because he knew that vader weakness is sand,so he decided to stay there to survive
4:20
That is the one best hiding spot where Vader will never try to look. Under the sand.
In my opinion, this is way better than in Star Wars Rebels. The fight I mean. It’s to bad this is in Legends. This flash vidoe made me want to believe that Darth Maul survived.

Well, it's a pretty good strategy when you think about it.
That's about the last place you'd expect to find a master user of the high ground.
GintaPPE1000 god thats brilliant 😂
Did somebody say #Wonder
Was this a newground animation
I love that story :D great job with animation
Amazing! lot of work behind it..
Finally I found it I saw this when I was 4 or 5 and didn’t had knowledge of English
Better than Revaaaaa show
Why was he buried in the sand
Gus Thorpe who knows
If you watch the director's cut version of Revenge of the Sith, Obi Wan hands over the baby to Owen and then proceeds to bury himself outside of Owen's house. That scene was removed due to time constraints
"Obi Wan Kenobi - now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time. Probably because of all this sand in my ears. It gets everywhere."
I have some teories
1-Because vader hates the sand
2-because no one would think that a master of the high ground is under the ground
3-because obi wan is so baddass that he can survive under the sand?
4-because this doesn't make any senses?
I remember seeing this a while go and a have been looking for it for a long time
5:58 NANI!!!!!!!!!!!
Bloody Amazing.
This is one of the best videos ive seen in my whole lifetime
Damn... Coming back to see this after finishing Clone Wars and Rebels... It was nostalgic but man am I glad they rewrote Maul's return and death.
Ben: I believe the phrase you're looking for Owen is "Thank you for saving my family!".
Looks like something from the clone wars animated movie
Not even close
Are you using that to praise this or rip on that, personally I believe it's of a much higher quality than this even though I prefer the later seasons
MrPlays MrGames how old are you lmao this has the production quality of a newgrounds animation
Im sorry but this is not a very good piece of work
Hes not talking about the Cgi cartoon, he's taking about the animated cartoon
1:46 oh it’s like that one Monty python scene
Enough maul! I have the high ground!
The flash animation that inspired the return of maul.
It was based on a Star Wars visionaries comic by the same name.
Own:*shots blaster*
Me: NOOOOOOO!😫
speedster assassin's 101 me: yes
Still a really good short. It's up there with the encounter they had at night, when it was just obi and maul.

nice, ties a lot together
"Stay away, ok?"
Haven't watched this in absolutely ages. Rebels was better but this classic still has my love. Love the classic Ben 10 look
