That execution mainly comes down to dialogue. However, as with much of Charles Soule’s work, the ideas are solid, but the execution leaves me wanting. Darth Vader: No Good Deed is a satirical look at Darth Vader’s unforgiving reputation seen through the eyes of a Mouse Droid with Calvin and Hobbes-esque art to boot! It’s just that Star Wars and Star Trek are completely different tonally and approach these high concepts in their unique ways.Īlso included in this focused storyline are, Darth Vader Annual #2 “Technological Terror” written by Chuck Wending and the charming, Darth Vader: No Good Deed, written and drawn by Chris Eliopoulos.ĭarth Vader Annual #2 is more or less a procedural mystery that leads up Darth Vader’s involvement in Rogue One.

While I find the history of the Sith and the dark side, the spirituality and the power of the force compelling, there’s a point where these concepts thematically cross into Star Trek territory, which doesn’t quite sit well with me This is where I get tripped up within the ever-expanding off-screen Star Wars universe. Regret over the loss of his love, Padme Amidala, and his obsession with discovering secrets of the dark side of the force that could bring Padme back from the dead. We also learn that regret is what drives Darth Vader. We journey with the greatest villain in cinema history as he recreates himself in the aftermath of his defeat at the hands of his master, mentor and friend, Obi-Wan Kenobi.ĭarth Vader earns his lightsaber, erects his Mustafar fortress and establishes his reputation as the most fearsome foe in the Galaxy.

What follows are satisfying answers as to how that newly created Darth Vader came to be the ominous Darth Vader of the Original Trilogy. Revenge of the Sith’s, the birth of Darth Vader scene’s, say it along with me…īut, don’t let that deter you. For some, the starting point of this Darth Vader story will arguably be the most cringe-inducing moment of the entire Star Wars Skywalker saga.
