Star Wars: Age of Resistance - Kylo Ren #1

Phil Noto's cover says everything about where Kylo Ren stands in 2019's Star Wars: Age of Resistance — the dark-robed First Order enforcer faces forward with crossguard lightsaber in hand, the molten, looming silhouette of Darth Vader's helmet burning behind him like an unshakeable inheritance. It's a striking image that captures the tension at the heart of this character: a man defined as much by a shadow he can't escape as by the crimson blade he carries. Writer Tom Taylor and artist Leonard Kirk bring "Out of the Shadow" to life inside, making this a compelling addition to Marvel's character-spotlight Age of Resistance series.
