Darth Vader and Sabé join forces to bring order to a planet ravaged by an Imperial Governor who has allied with Crimson Dawn. But what will connections to Vader’s past unleash?
Sabé in action! Vader on a podracer! Return of the Kitster!
Greg Pak breaks down the crack in Vader’s armor and Sabé searches for the truth behind Padme’s last words! Raffaele Ienco nails the art style and once again shows some really great expressions. The action is solid but there are also some fascinating introspective moments that dive deep into Vader’s psyche!
Here are my favorite moments from this arc!
SPOILERS AHEAD!
A Bold Claim
He’s such a tryhard.
New Fit Who Dis?
Sabé gets an Imperial upgrade which comes with a new costume! Where are my Sabé cosplayers at?
So Wizard
Vader shows up and is like “Holy poodoo. These guys used to be my homies!”
Just kidding, Vader is never like that.
Don’t Look Back
I love these glimpses into Anakin sprinkled throughout the series but this one is extra choice.
Now, This is Podracing!
Vader on a podracer racing into a dust storm to destroy some stuff is such a Vader diva moment.
Lightsaber Astromech
Hiding your lightsaber in an astromech is such a Skywalker move.
Power Suit
Governor Tauntaza has got a pretty sweet suit powered by the energy of the planet just to fight Vader.
Love that for her. Hope it all works out…
We Are Brave Your Highness
Sabé gets her moment for vengeance as the last words of her closest friend ring in her head.
And for one last time, she trusts in Padme.
Hope she doesn’t regret it.
Unlimited Power
In usual Vader fashion there’s overbearing violence and power, but the cracks in Vader’s mind are fascinating and wonderful to ponder. They add depth to Vader’s story we haven’t seen at this point. I love having Sabé’s story being told, and her interactions with Vader and Ochi bring me plenty of joy.
This comic is a must-read for Vader and Sabé fans who are looking for a peek behind Vader’s mask!
