“Shadow of a Dark Lord!”

Looming over the entire scene in ominous fashion, Darth Vader's towering form casts a literal shadow over Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, C-3PO, and R2-D2 as they brace for conflict — Luke's lightsaber raised, Leia armed and ready. Marvel's 1979 adaptation continues with "Shadow of a Dark Lord!", and the cover by Carmine Infantino and Terry Austin perfectly captures the sense of danger pressing down on the Rebellion's heroes. It's a striking piece of Marvel Star Wars storytelling that holds up as a vivid snapshot of the saga's early comics era.
