Genndy Tartakovsky's hand-drawn "Star Wars: Clone Wars" series, which aired from 2003 to 2005, did not mark Star Wars' first foray into animation. Such can be traced back to 1985, shortly after "Return of the Jedi." But the micro-series heralded the arrival of a new era for animated storytelling that seriously expanded the canon of the galaxy far, far away. While Tartakovsky's contributions are archived as proto-canon, slotted in the same "Star Wars Vintage" section of Disney+ as 1985's "Ewoks" and "Droids" animated series, his shorts provided the blueprints that the rest of the franchise built off of for both animated and live-action projects alike.
