Star Wars: Empire #35

Darth Vader dominates this cover of Star Wars: Empire #35, ignited red lightsaber in hand, with a massive Imperial Star Destroyer looming behind him — a striking image that perfectly frames the story's tagline, "Never lie to Vader!" The header promises a "Hunt for the Rebel Fleet," setting a tense Imperial tone throughout. Michael Sutfin's cover art captures the Dark Lord at his most commanding, making this 2005 Dark Horse entry in John Jackson Miller and Brian Ching's run a compelling pick for any Star Wars fan.
