Star Wars: Darth Vader and the Ghost Prison #4

The penultimate chapter of this five-part Dark Horse series arrives with a cover by Dave Wilkins that radiates menace — Darth Vader dominates the composition, lightsaber blazing red, flanked by an armored trooper and a determined Imperial officer crouched with blaster drawn. "The Battle for the Ghost Prison!" declares the cover, and the image makes that promise feel entirely credible. Writer Haden Blackman and artist Agustín Alessio bring this 2012 series to its dramatic near-climax with real momentum building.
