Collects Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) #6-11. Darth Vader failed to turn his son, Luke Skywalker, to the dark side. Vader sought revenge against those who hid Luke from him for all these years…and in doing so nearly betrayed his master. It did not go unnoticed by Palpatine…and now it is time for Vader’s next lesson. Now, left battered and broken by his punishment, the Dark Lord drags himself across the scorched surface of Mustafar with vengeance on his mind! But as Vader closes in on the key to Palpatine’s greatest secret, the deadly assassin Ochi of Bestoon stands in his way. Vader and Ochi are in for the fight of their lives, with the fate of the Emperor in the balance — but how much of this deadly scenario is Palpatine’s grand plan?

Kanan Vol. 1 - The Last Padawan

Ah, a good end. Wanted more.

Wrapped up nicely, nothing shocking though. Good story, solid artwork. 

I'd like to read more Kanan stories in the future.

This is basically a short story about Poe Dameron's parents, and why he's so loyal to Leia, and the rebellion. I love it. His parents are adorable and I'm glad I got to read about their strength and love as they fight for the right to raise him in a free Galaxy. :)

Continue to explore the early days of Kanan Jarrus, the sensational star of Star Wars Rebels! You've seen Kanan's last adventure as a Padawan, now witness his very first! The boy who was Caleb Dune must find his feet as the Clone Wars rage all around him. When the Jedi Temple comes under attack, what can a mere Padawan do to make a difference? Caleb and his new Master Bilaba will take command of their own Clone troop, and lead them into the furious Battle of Mygeeto. But lying in wait for them there are a pair of Separatist Generals, one of whom is one of the most deadly threats in the entire galaxy! Can Caleb and Bilaba survive Grievous? COLLECTING: KANAN 7-12.

Kanan Vol. 2 - First Blood

Kireth Sandhu

Yes, this feels like a small Clone Wars TV show-esque story but the ideas and themes are clear - Windu and the Jedi are hesitant to join this conflict as it begins to engulf the galaxy. Loved the discussions had, and the art at times was awesome, especially lightsabers in the rain - however, at times faces were drawn really oddly. I loved how there were clear visual and dialogue references to Mace's actions in the prequel movies, but the average plot and forgettable villain gave this book an overall 3/5.

For years after Episode III, I was interested in seeing some padawan survive Order 66 (like that boy almost did, T~T) and while I didn't get that with Clone Wars, the moment Rebels was announced my fangirl died and became one with the Force. Been a fan since the first 5 minutes of episode 1, and really enjoyed A New Dawn, which is how Hera and Kanan met, while also revealing Kanan's real name. But it just felt...short. Even though it's a chunky book, I wanted more, more of what Kanan meant by going to a dark place after Order 66, and why he's determined "Ezra not be like me".

This comic gives that. It shows the Ghost crew doing their thing in season 1, while flashing back to just what Kanan did to survive, and what he went through started with the day they had before Order 66. It shows the clones working through coming out of it, and what happened to an old Separatist general. It doesn't disqualify the revelations of A New Dawn, merely added onto it beautifully. It's quite good and ends on a cliffhanger and now I really need to see what happens next!!! Will it go into season 2? Will we see more of how Kanan went from thief to miner to rebel?
