Seriously though, the art looks stunning. I kinda drifted away from Star Wars and its EU throughout the years, but I might get into that series afterall. It's Vader afterall.

The first was great. Gillen really knows how Vader ticks. Cant wait to see where this goes.

What is the most intimidating sounding space ship name that we can think of? How about "Super Star Destroyer Annihilator"

This is great. I like how this shows Vader as a "hero" of the empire. Just because he's evil doesn't mean everyone sees him as such.

Love proud/strutting/fabulous Vader on the cover! This looks to be more awesomeness from this series.

A question, a bit of topic, about the first issue from someone who recently read it, how come Jabba is episode VI fat? Wasn't he like the snail human snail-size from Special Edition episode IV like a month ago (in the comic time)? (Or has the SE been altered and gotten rid of the embarrassing Jabba/Solo scene? Havn't seen any SEs since the first.)
