Star Wars #65

Marvel's Star Wars #65 brings us the fourth chapter of "The Scourging of Shu-Torun," written by Kieron Gillen with art by Angel Unzueta and colors by Guru-eFX. Gerald Parel's cover is a tense, atmospheric standoff: Luke Skywalker, blue lightsaber raised and expression taut with focus, faces off in a dimly lit corridor against a hulking armored figure in red — cybernetically augmented and clearly not here to negotiate. The contrast between Luke's lean determination and his opponent's imposing mechanical bulk makes this one of the more gripping covers of the run.
