Star Wars: Empire #4

Darth Vader stands at the center of Brian Horton's cover, lightsaber ignited and crimson, his imposing silhouette framed against a smoky, atmospheric background — with fallen figures visible at his feet, making the tagline "Vader Versus Everybody!" feel entirely earned. This is the fourth and final chapter of "Betrayal," and the image promises the kind of showdown that only the galaxy's most feared Dark Lord of the Sith could anchor. A satisfying capstone to the arc from Dark Horse's 2002 Star Wars: Empire series.
