Star Wars: Blood Ties - Boba Fett Is Dead #3

Darth Vader dominates this painted cover, striding forward in full armor against a backdrop of fire and chaos — a Stormtrooper flanking him on one side and an AT-ST looming on the other. Chris Scalf's richly atmospheric cover work gives the Dark Lord an almost sculptural weight, the warm glow of explosions reflecting off his helmet in striking detail. Part three of four in Tom Taylor's Boba Fett Is Dead arc, this 2012 Dark Horse issue promises shadow, power, and the unmistakable sense that the Empire's most fearsome figure is very much in command.
