Star Wars vs Harry Potter by Henry G

 Star Wars and Harry Potter are two of the most iconic fantasy novel and movie series. While these two series may seem quite different at first, with one using wands, and the other using lightsabers, the main character in both series actually have quite a lot in common. First off, both Harry and Luke did not grow up with their parents because they were dead (or believed to be). Instead, they were raised by their aunts and uncles and later taken away by an old man from a secret organization related to their parents. At the end, both characters eventually defeat the villain who is somehow related to their family. Harry's parents, who were wizards, were killed and Harry was raised by his aunt and uncle. Then, Hagrid takes him and introduces him to the wizarding world, where he would follow the footsteps of his parents and eventually defeat Voldemort, who killed his parents. Luke's parents were also dead or believed to be dead and Luke grew up with his aunt and uncle in a fairly normal life. Then, Obi-Wan Kenobi took him and introduces him to the Jedi order, which Luke's father belonged to. Luke would follow his father footsteps and become a Jedi. In the end, Luke realized that Darth Vader was his father turned evil, and Luke manages to turn him to the light side before his defeat and death. In the end, while Harry Potter and Luke Skywalker may seem like two very different characters, they actually have a lot more in common then most people think.
