The third volume of Darth Vader debuts with an immense sense of longing and futility as readers see the Dark Lord of the Sith blaze a new trail of revenge that's lined with stinging regret culminating in an ending that left us open mouthed and gaping.
If you're a fan of the Prequel Trilogy, then this story arc is likely up your alley; even more so if you read E.K. Johnston's "Queen's Shadow."
