Star Wars #32

Part 4 of 5 in the "Screaming Citadel" crossover, and the tension is written all over this Marco Checchetto cover — Han Solo raises his blaster with those eerie red-glowing eyes while a menacing armored figure looms large behind him, and below, a lightsaber-wielding Luke Skywalker squares off against a dark-robed, lightning-wreathed enemy amid crashing waves near a foreboding citadel. Jason Aaron, Salvador Larroca, and Edgar Delgado bring the penultimate chapter of this arc to a boil, with the creative team firing on all cylinders as the stakes clearly reach a peak. If you've been following this storyline, issue #32 makes a compelling case that the best is being saved for last.
