By Kenneth Allan This volume collects the first six issues of the new Darth Vader solo comic series. In my opinion 'Darth Vader' is the strongest of the comics which have come out so far ('Star Wars', 'Princess Leia' and 'Kanan: The Last Padawan' being the others). Kieron Gillen is one of the best writers in comics today and excels when writing non-heroes (just see his amazing Kid Loki 'Journey into Mystery' series for proof). Salvador Larroca's art isn't revolutionary but it is very good and the colouring by Delgado brings the comic to life.Darth Vader follows the title character after the events of 'A New Hope' as he attempts to discover the truth about the young pilot who destroyed the Death Star, and as he tries to remain on the Emperor's good side. We find Vader teaming up with a young rogue-ish character and a deadly droid to give him a slightly more human/approachable side for the reader.Of particular note is issue #6 which crosses over with 'Star Wars' and is a great look into the emotions that Vader feels. I won't spoil everything, but the last panel is as good a close to a first volume as you could hope for.The only downside to these initial trade paperbacks is they are often short on extras. I would have loved to see some of the variant covers for #1 included in the back; instead we just get some boring sketches. Alas.

The Dark Lord's Dark Journey By Anarchy in the US Everyone loves a good villain and one of the best, and possibly most famous, is definitely Darth Vader. The character is an icon in pop culture, both visually (that Dr. Doom-like look) and audible (thanks to John Williams “Imperial March” theme). There are few villains who come close to his presence. So with the Disney buyout of Lucas products, Marvel (owned under Disney) has given the Sith lord his first ongoing series about him. With the success of the main series Star Wars Vol. 1: Skywalker Strikes under Jason Aaron and John Cassaday, I feel this series is in good hands.STAR WARS: DARTH VADER VOL.1: VADER collects issues #1-6 and take place between the events of Episode IV: A New Hope and Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. The Death Star has been destroyed and the Emperor, Vader’s master, is disappointed in Vader’s failure to defend the space station. Seeing how the Sith do not tolerate failure (especially when it comes to a moon-sized weapon full of thousands of imperial workers), the Emperor has demoted Vader from his position as general of the Imperial fleet and now under the command of General Cassio Tagge (one know, the one guy who doubted Vader and his religion in the first film?). Vader is angry, not to mention he feels the Emperor might looking for a replacement due to his loses. With power slipping through his fingers, Vader plans to secretly build his own army if that’s what it takes to assume control.Kieron Gillen has a tough job of keeping all the aspects tied together from Vader being in control, cunning, and borderline unbeatable in the first two films, while keeping characteristics of the films and sister comic book from Jason Aaron in tact. Thankfully, I think Gillen does it well without interfering with continuity to Aaron’s work and still fill in some holes. This series can be read by itself or with conjuncture to Aaron’s Star Wars. Gillen keeps Vader like his film self being powerful and mysterious, yet because Vader is supposed to be a powerhouse and not weak, he would have no opposition. Gillen remedies this by having the conflict with Vader and his Master that shows some of this within the first three issues under the new command of general Tagge (which Vader hates). Nothing wrong with that, but a comic staring Vader cannot last long on that premise or else everything would be too easy for Vader. Thankfully, Gillen does this by expanding Vader’s supporting cast.Aphra, a rogue archeologist in search of lost weapons, Triple Zero and BT-1 are C-3PO and R2-D2 evil versions (with BT-1 having a load of weapons on him). The three additions are humorous to lighten the mood, get in trouble, and convey the narration, so it leaves Vader to come in and wreck havoc with little to say. This makes a good mix of duality having the supporting characters offset Vader’s power and presence. Not to mention, we still get some subtle insight on Vader in his mind and actions.All the art is carried entirely by Salvador Larrocca. If there is any high points to love is Larrocca’s art work. All the high detail, original designs of the original films are true to form, and Larrocca does a darn great job at showing the complexities of Vader considering he has no physical reactions. Some panels are less detailed than others, but it’s solid art all around.If there are any problems I had is Gillen does include aspects of the prequel films through flashbacks. This means some (or many) fans will hate, seeing as Jason Aaron’s Star Wars series make no connection to them at all. The flashbacks are very few thankfully, and only in Vader’s mind. He makes no mention of it to anyone. Additionally, the supporting cast just feels like evil versions of our heroes. Boba Fett and his Wookie partner are stand-ins for Han Solo and Chewbacca, while Triple Zero and BT-1 are C-3PO and R2-D2. And Aphra is a female Indiana Jones in space (an archeologist in Star Wars? I think Gillen is linking his two favorite franchises together). I do not think the new characters are bad, just simply not enough creativity I think. And the Emperor looking for an apprentice angle doesn’t sell because we all know Vader is the Emperor’s #1 guy in the films and isn’t replaced (though the added story with prospects to other apprentices does sound interesting).So it may have some flaws, but STAR WARS DARTH VADER VOL.1: VADER is still a promising start for a powerful character such as the Dark Lord. Gillen keeps most of Vader’s badass factors intact, by offsetting him with a opposite supporting cast, fills in some holes, and has great art to accompany it. The inclusion of the prequel films and slower pace might not sit well with readers, but I think Gillen can make things work.Not quite as strong as Jason Aaron’s STAR WARS comic, but still good.

7 of 10 people found the following review helpful. Vader's journey home, begins here. By J. Richmond It isn't easy to put one's finger on why this comic book, one about origins of Vader's internal and very personal rebellion, is so good. But good it is. The art on all the Marvel Star Wars comics leading up to Star Wars: The Force Awakens has been great. That is true here. The writers grasp Vader, and Star Wars too. The book has a dark melancholy feel, but like all good Star Wars fiction, it also finds fun and energy and joy. I doubt that things will end well for Vader's new "friends,' (how can they knowing what we know) but these relationships, with a death wishing tech wizard trying to foment a droid rebellion, and two murderous droids and perhaps, a couple of bounty hunters, are the first steps in his way back to his humanity.
