Star Wars brings again prequel trilogy characters in new comedian

Star Wars continues to disclose shocking issues that Darth Vader encountered after The Empire Strikes Back.

In the most recent problem of Greg Pak and Raffaele Ienco’s ongoing Darth Vader comedian e-book collection, Vader has a number of sudden reunions with prequel trilogy characters he knew again when he was harmless little Anakin Skywalker.

This occurs after Vader survives the cliffhanger on the finish of the final problem the place he was dealing with near-certain loss of life in an underwater Gungan temple, with an enormous sea monster about to eat him.

Of course, we knew this was by no means going to occur and as soon as Vader makes use of his wits (and a few highly effective weapons) to flee, he continues on his mission to go to Padmé Amidala’s tomb to uncover the mysteries of her loss of life.

Before he will get there although, he is stopped by the Amidalans, who’ve sworn to get vengeance for Padmé’s loss of life by killing Vader, who they assume was the one who killed her (not fairly true…).

Padmé’s handmaiden Sabé is not on this explicit batch of Amidalans although and, as an alternative, they’re led by Ric Olié, who you might keep in mind from The Phantom Menace.

Played by Ralph Brown in The Phantom Menace, he was Padmé’s private pilot and was the commander of the Naboo Royal Security Forces.

Despite Olié’s battle abilities, the Amidalans are little use in opposition to Vader’s may and Olié suffers a critical, however not deadly, damage. Vader survives unscathed and continues on to the tomb.

But he faces one closing battle to get into it as Padmé’s handmaidens – Sabé, Eirtaé, Rabé, Dormé and Saché – are there to cease him. All of them have been seen within the prequel trilogy, performed by the likes of Keira Knightley and Rose Byrne.

Vader will not be as vicious in the direction of them as he’s to the opposite Amidalans, even giving them the prospect to surrender. He does finally defeat them in battle, however his assaults aren’t meant to be deadly, simply aimed toward subduing the handmaidens.

It’s arguably the primary trace in the direction of his eventual redemption in Return of the Jedi – in different circumstances, Vader would not suppose twice about slaughtering anybody who obtained in his means.

The problem ends with Vader getting into the tomb, and we’ll have to attend till the following problem to see what secrets and techniques await him. We do know that problem 5 will wrap up this explicit storyline, with the Darth Vader collection then happening to tie into The Rise of Skywalker.

What that hyperlink can be, we do not know but, however now we have a sense it will have one thing to do with Palpatine.

The complete Star Wars Skywalker Saga is out there to look at on Disney+. You may also personal the Saga on DVD, Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD.
