Star Wars: Vader - Dark Visions #[nn]

Darth Vader astride a powerful horse against a blazing orange sky — with dark birds circling overhead and the Imperial crest emblazoned like a shield — Greg Smallwood's cover art for this 2019 Marvel collection reimagines the galaxy's most feared villain as something almost mythic. Gathering stories written by Dennis "Hopeless" Hallum with art by Paolo Villanelli, Vader: Dark Visions explores the Dark Lord through unexpected perspectives, the anthology's title "Savior" hinting at the unsettling ways ordinary people in the galaxy might actually see him. It's a quietly striking package that earns that pull-quote about wonderment.
