Star Wars #35

The concluding chapter of the "Darkness" arc arrives with a cover by Jon Foster that sets a brooding, atmospheric tone — a battered Twi'lek woman slumps in the grip of a dark, scarred figure who holds an ignited red lightsaber, the dim cave-like background amplifying the sense of desperation and menace. John Ostrander and Jan Duursema's four-part story reaches its finale here, promising the kind of morally complex Star Wars storytelling this creative team consistently delivers. If you've been following the arc, this is the payoff issue you've been waiting for.
