Book Summary: YOUR HUMBLE SERVANT VADER! DARTH VADER may be the most feared man in the galaxy. But to the proud Grand Moffs of THE EMPIRE, he’s just the Emperor’s apprentice – below them in the hierarchy. But what fury burns in the heart of a SITH with such overwhelming rage when a mere Moff dares command him? And at what point does Darth Vader show them his true power?
Book Review: Vader may the most feared Sith in the galaxy but his leash is held by Palpatine and when Palpatine orders that Vader listen to the regional Governor. Unfortunately for the Governor, everytime he sends Vader out with the hopes that Vader will not only fail but die, Vader seems to return. But when Vader is given the order to destroy the most dangerous creature in an asteroid belt, Vader goes out and comes back angering the Governor whom learns that Vader is just doing what he has been ordered.

Vader is one of the most interesting characters in the Star Wars universe, simply because we don't know what exactly he is up to inbetween episode 3 and 4. Now we are getting glimpses and we can see that Vader continues his rampage against the Jedi as he sets out to destroy all of them.

Vader continues to be one of my favorite characters and I really enjoyed this issue. It was a bit short but well worth the read. There are moments where you can see Vader trying to fight against the leash that Palpatine has on him but in the end you know he can't fight against it.

I wish the Star Wars universe had a "What If" to it. There could be so many different ways these things could go.
