Triple Zero

Triple Zero is a protocol droid modeled after C-3PO's design but reprogrammed for torture and assassination. He serves as a darkly comic yet genuinely menacing counterpart to the golden droid, operating alongside Doctor Aphra and the assassin droid BT-1 in the criminal underworld.

Emerging from the darker corners of the galaxy in 2015, Triple Zero is a Modern Age creation from writer Kieron Gillen and artist Salvador Larroca — a sinister presence who made an immediate impression upon debuting in Star Wars #4. Published through Panini Deutschland, this chilling figure haunts the pages alongside some of the most iconic names in the Star Wars universe, sharing adventures with Darth Vader, Doktor Aphra, and the infamous BT-1. Across nearly a decade of appearances in Star Wars, Star Wars Reprint, and Star Wars-Darth Vader Annual, Triple Zero has carved out a genuinely unsettling niche in modern Star Wars comics — exactly the kind of cult-favorite character that rewards dedicated collectors who dig deeper than the obvious legends.
