Aww, Vader is holding his old Saber again.

That first issue was pretty fantastic but I kinda don't want Vader vs Luke at this point in the timeline. As long as this is the only time it happens before Empire Strikes Back then I suppose I'm okay with it. It's certainly a hook to sell comics and this scene plays out really well.

@syncig: Obviously this won't be a long fight, I'm guessing Leia and Han will save Luke at the last minute.

@the_stegman: Yeah, I know. I'm guessing that this is the entire fight between the two and Luke will be saved in the next panel or two. I just don't want this comic to fall into the trap of forcing Vader into the story too frequently to the point that it diminishes how special a conflict between the two is. I love The Clone Wars but one complaint I did have about it is Dooku had too many duels with Obi-Wan/Anakin. By the time Anakin kills him in Revenge of the Sith, they had already fought a handful of times before. I'm confident that Jason Aaron/Marvel will do a great job with this series (especially since they are working with the Lucasfilm story group) and I'm just being overly worrisome. But that's what fans do I suppose. lol

@syncig: Have faith, all will be well! Plus, Vader is getting a series too, so I don't think he'll be in the main title too much.

@syncig: I hope Vader doesn't maim or kill Luke.

@g_man: And then all of the Star Wars stories after this will be erased like the photo in Back to the Future! lol

Badass.

i honestly have never read anything Star Wars related before this most current run back at Marvel. I can really say the 1st issue had me really interested and i'll def be coming back for the 2nd issue and more.

Awesome. Can't wait to see what happens next.

Bit to soon for Vader Vs Luke but they had to I guess. Really enjoyed Issue one

Seeing Vader and Luke do battle, devalues what happens in Empire. No, Just NO! I see what they are trying to do here. Vader wanting revenge for the destruction of the death star, but this scene doesn't line up well with continuity. MEH.
