Essential Star Wars. This is where it all starts to turn for Vader after Ep4.
This was a fun read. I have always seen Darth Vader as being impervious. One of the things that bugged me about the prequels is I had a hard time marrying the Darth Vader who was so in control to the emotional roller coaster of Anakin. Maybe I was blind to Vader's weakness all this time. All this to say that I felt this same incongruity in this story. I enjoyed the first four or five issues more than the last one or two.
The artwork is beautiful. It's worth looking at this graphic novel, even if one doesn't get into the story. I give the story 3 stars and the art 5 stars.
