Senator Padmé Amidala

Few figures in the Modern Age galaxy carry themselves with quite the presence of Senator Padmé Amidala, who made her comics debut in 2002's Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones #1, brought to the page by George Lucas, Henry Gilroy, and Jan Duursema. A political force navigating one of the most turbulent chapters in galactic history, she keeps extraordinary company — sharing adventures across her catalog run with the likes of Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, and Mace Windu, names that speak for themselves. Her appearances stretch across nearly two decades of Star Wars comics publishing, from Dark Horse adaptations to Star Wars Adventures and even the spooky corridors of Ghosts of Vader's Castle, proving her staying power across wildly different corners of the comics universe. For fans who want to trace the full sweep of a beloved character from screen to page, Senator Amidala's comic appearances are a rewarding thread to follow.
