Collects Darth Vader (2017) #13-18 And Darth Vader Annual #2.

As the Empire's grip tightens on the galaxy, the stirrings of a rebellion begin in the Mon Cala system. The fearsome Darth Vader knows order must be maintained at all costs — and this time the job of snuffing out hope falls to Vader, his Inquisitors…and Wilhuff Tarkin! Bringing Mon Cala to heel means finding the surviving Jedi that foment this unrest. No tolerance for rebellion can be afforded. But how far will Vader go to complete his mission? When the Dark Lord of the Sith and his Inquisitors finally track down their targets, a resistance will crumble and the seas will weep. And when the time comes for Tarkin to repay a long-standing debt to Vader, settling what is owed will require every last bit of his cunning — and will cost more than he ever imagined!

5.0 out of 5 stars I Really Enjoyed This
Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2019
Verified Purchase
I really enjoyed this book. The story is coordinated with Star Wars Vol. 8 Mutiny on Mon Cala and Star Wars Vol. 9 Hope Dies. It is not necessary, but to get a more rich, fuller story, you'll want to read this book first then switch over to those two Star Wars main series volumes.

I'm giving this review 5 Stars, but I have to say that I wavered on docking it by one star. I'm not crazy about the art. And, although the story is excellent (and as much as I love a good Vader story), I didn't enjoy it as much as I did those two Star Wars volumes I mentioned above; Volumes 8 & 9, Mutiny at Mon Cala and Hope Dies. Those books are top notch excellent. This book, I'd say, is a notch down, at very, very good.

Read it and see what you think. As a whole, I like how Marvel is filling out the years between the original trilogy movies with these stories. This story about the Battle of Mon Cala, over two different series, is fantastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Charles Soule's Series Continues to Impress and is Arguably the Best of Marvel's New Canon
Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2018

Darth Vader leads the invasion of Mon Cala. With the Empire tightening its grip across the galaxy, Vader is dispatched by his master to the aquatic world of Mon Cala to track down a rogue Jedi who may be advising the planet's king. With the Inquisitors in tow, Vader and Grand Moff Tarkin face off with one of the first open acts of rebellion in their new Empire. Soule is at his absolute best with this series as he continues to explore a version of Vader haunted by his own inner goodness and memories of the past (the book does contain some references to events of the Clone Wars television show, but you don't need to have seen it to grasp the story). Likewise, his exploration of the seduction of the dark side is fantastic with a new Jedi target willing to use deception and war in order to light the sparks of a future rebellion. The final issue of the book may be one of the best Star Wars comics of the entire new canon with Tarkin hunting Vader for sport (on the latter's request oddly enough) across a desolate and hostile planet. The issue isn't what one expects but makes a great deal of sense when exploring the relationship between these two characters (while also explaining why Vader is so deferential to Tarkin during A New Hope). The final addition is a decent annual that sees Vader investigating the Death Star and sabotage of its construction. The annual isn't the best addition to the series (the artwork isn't up to the standards of the rest of the series), but it does introduce some intriguing ideas about Tarkin and Vader's relationship and the events that set up the Rogue One movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars A superb addition to the Marvel Darth Vader canon
Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2019

An almost perfect run of comic books, focused around the Imperial assault on Mon Cala post-Episode III. Many familiar faces are here: Vader, of course; Tarkin; Ackbar; Palpatine; Rogue One’s Admiral Raddus; and many more, including Sith, Jedi, and clones (there’s a nice nod to Order 66). Charles Soule deftly weaves an intriguing narrative, fast-paced but also with plenty of depth. The art is also excellent. In addition to the main stretch of the story, the trade also contains the Darth Vader annual, an outstanding Rogue One story that caps things off nicely. Highly recommended reading for Star Wars fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great volume with great Tarkin/Vader relationships
Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2018

I am continuing to enjoy this ongoing series showing Darth Vader shortly after Episode 3. It's cool seeing Mon Cala prior to Imperial control. I like how there's a bit of a tie-in with the ongoing Star Wars comic series. There are also flashbacks to the Clone Wars era.

I like this time period. Each jedi that evaded Order 66 is dealing with the new world in a different way. I also really enjoyed seeing a young Ackbar.

There are two standalone issues included in this volume. First, there's a story that shows the relationship between Darth Vader and Tarkin developing into what we see in the original trilogy.

The other is an Annual written by Chuck Wendig. This shows another interesting Vader/Tarkin dynamic. There are a bunch of great references that I love in this issue! Project Stardust. Geonosis. Krennic. Galen Erso. Overall, it's a really cool tie-in to Rogue One.

Yet again, I give this volume of the ongoing Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith a 5/5.

Worthy of the Chosen one. Now fallen into complete darkness, the once Jedi, now Sith Lord, wreaks fear and havoc throughout the empire, in his unrelenting campaign as the Emperor’s Enforcer.

The story comes to life with plot twists, excellent graphics, and records Vader’s further descent into the abyss - which is the feared Dark side of the force.

An excellent read!
