Issue 8: Sheev attempts to teach Vader a lesson, to use his emotions, but to use them wisely. He warns Vader against letting himself be controlled by his feelings, otherwise his lessers will become his masters.

Issue 10: Vader doesn't heed Sheev's lesson. He allows Jocasta Nu to make him mad. First she exposes that he's Anakin Skywalker to the clones (whom he kills as a result), and then she taunts him of Sheev wanting to train other students. As a result, he loses himself in his feelings and does exactly what Jacosta Nu wanted of him: to kill her, so she can't expose her secrets to Sheev, and even to destroy the knowledge on force sensitive children. A weak old lady, Vader's lesser in every way, became his master. Sheev's warning made manifest.

This is one of the best mini-arcs we've had, let's be honest. I really like how the relationship between Sheev and Vader is being portrayed, here. In the EU, Vader was little more than an emotional bitch with Stockholm Syndrome toward Palpatine. Here we see Sheev and Vader have mutual respect for eachother, and Sheev even treats Vader like a genuine friend, even while maintaining the sharp edge of a Sith by constantly pushing and testing Vader not to grow complacent. Vader has massive flaws, but he's never weak or whiny. He makes mistakes, but he doesn't lose sleep over mustache-twirling evil Emperor doing something that challenges his morals. In fact, in this portrayal we see how Vader is more mindlessly destructive than Sheev is, which makes perfect sense, since Vader still has so much more to learn and ultimately fails at doing so.

I'll just come out and say it. The portrayal of Vader, and Vader's relationship with Sheev, is better in this Marvel comic than it is in the Dark Horse comics.

It raises an issue that I think some hardcore EU fans have to come to terms with more, myself included.

Things produced by Disney aren't incapable of some sort quality.(From what I've heard, the Vader comic, Tarkin, and Thrawn are pretty okay.)

However, just because a single work turns out to be better than expected, Disney is still ultimately horrible for Star Wars as a whole. So, Disney is always bad, but individual writers and artists can still find a way to make something interesting regardless.

That's completely inconsistent with the character of the Emperor that's presented in the six films. Sheev views his apprentices as tools, nothing more. Or do you forget that he disposes of all of them?

I knew someone would bring this up, I was even tempted to address it beforehand but decided against it. All I can say is that it works in the context of what's presented. Vader is constantly referred to as a "monster" and even forms a sort of complicated attachment to his armor, as if it's part of him. But it's quite obvious that he's uncomfortable with having to be on life-support 24/7. I can only surmise that he wanted to maintain the image of Anakin Skywalker as he was before the defeat on Mustafar. Still, it's a good observation on your part.

>>25688

Sheev still acts like a Sith and constantly tests Vader, but Vader is the most powerful tool he has. I never meant to imply that he's all cozy and friendly with Vader, because that's not what happens at all. It's just that it's a much more realistic and meaningful connection. Pic related maybe helps portray what I mean.

I'd disagree. There are one or two Dark Horse comics that show Sheev's relationship with Vader to be almost parental and not just that of one of Sheev's tools, which seems to be your point of contention.

>>25685

nu-Thrawn and Tarkin are written by EU veterans, so that's not a surprise. Tarkin specifically was meant to be a Legends book as I understand it, Luceno had it ABD when the switch happened, he changed some minor details to fit with mouse canon and published it as it was.

>>25688

Sheev with Vader is the closest Sheev ever gets to parental. Of all his apprentices, Vader was the one he thought would one day truly replace him, prior to his potential getting sliced off and burned on Mustafar. And even after that, he was still immensely powerful; I believe Lucas said that pre-Mustafar Vader had twice Sheev's potential, while post-Mustafar he was "only" around four-fifths of Sheev.

At first i thought that as well, that old EU Vader was just too depressed and everyone shat on him to promote their new pet characters (Force Unleashed was the worst offender)… but after some thought i came to consider the best depiction. Vader was supposed to be a wreck, a broken man, the guy with that small thing that made him not a perfect sith but capable of redemption.

Palpatine was the psychopath, the crackling villain who got orgasms by killing people with killer piranhas or by lighting. Vader was the guy with a cold anger, a self hate that he ventilates by killing his officers or politicians but not deriving joy from it. Palpatine was the sadist, not Vader.

Also Vader wasn't whiny… when he understandably goes on tantrum for being a fucked up wreck, Palpatine had a talk and then cut out him of his self pity. After the events of Dark Lord he sobered up.

Respect? Vader hated Palpatine who considered him only a tool and would be always eager to dump him at the first chance. Palpatine lost his respect, his special care for Vader after Mustafar. The guy was a wreck, especially at mental level. Palpatine killed his whole family and was ok with that. Vader lost his mother and then killed his wife and was haunted forevermore. He was obsessed with keeping people alive, Palpatine didn't gave a fuck about anyone else besides himself.

Its kinda hard for them to fuck up the concept, especially with how carefully Marvel manages this one since its their only consistently popular comic, or at least it was until midway in. But for me it started sucking before that when Aphra joined the scene. The more recent ones about Fortress Vader are just corny.

As for the main SW comics, they're just pure dogshit with some of the worst art I've ever seen. The same goes for the Aphra comics, whose art is not as bad, but its writing is worse than even American Chavez.

This right here. Vader's characterization beforehand fit with his image as a broken soul, but casuals who were more enthralled by his depiction in A New Hope as a generic and all powerful evil overlord wanted more of that regardless of what the PT or ROTJ set up. I can't take the Vader/Sidious relationship in this seriously either since it was a relationship of mutual distrust under a guise of friendship. Any trust Vader had in him would likely fade after the first few months after Padme's death, with the only reason he would remain loyal was due to desiring the same goals as Palpatine for the most part. Another issue of these new comics I can't stand is how they changed up how lightsabers function with this "crying" business.

To give the man the benefit of the doubt, Disney's lawyers may not have given him much of a chance to speak out against the change in ownership. Unless you mean him writing anything at all. And I can understand that to a point, but the guy's an author. Man's gotta eat, and he did make the best out of some pretty bad source material.

Good post, reminds me of that "what it feels like to be Anakin Skywalker" description from the RotS novelization.

>>25736

>Sheev wanted to live for ever.

The thing about Sheev is that he's been characterized in so many different ways it's hard to say exactly what he wants. I'm personally inclined to believe that he wanted to uphold the Sith grand plan to the best of his ability, which as long as Vader was capable of overpowering him is the Rule of Two, and as long as he can't is the Rule of One. Given that Sidious himself profitted immensely from Plagueis's hubris that he was the one who would institute the Rule of One, I don't imagine Palpatine would fall to the same mistake. This is why he was so obsessed with turning Luke and I believe he succeeded in Dark Empire, I haven't read it yet, because he'd finally someone whose Force potential rivalled or even surpassed his own–something which was once true of Vader but wasn't any longer. But without a potential successor to him, he follows the Rule of One doctrine, as anyone who replaces him would make the total power of the Sith lesser.

Every Sith wants to live forever. It's a given when the entire philosophy is a power trip. Through strength I gain power. As long as a Sith has power, and believe me they will want it and more, they will never let it go. To be otherwise would mean that they are weak in some way. It means they've cracked and that can be exploited by even the weakest of foes.

True, no Sith will just voluntarily lay down and die. Maybe a better way to put it is whether or not they expect to live forever. Every Sith lord of the Bane line was aware on some level that he would eventually be killed, if not by his current apprentice then by his replacement after the first one failed. Sure they'd resist with every ounce of strength they had. But the implication was that one day, the apprentice becomes more powerful than the master, whether that's because the master becomes feeble or the apprentice becomes strong. Sheev bucked this trend because he had good reason to believe that none of his apprentices would ever be capable of overpowering him. But I don't think he rejected the Grand Plan in its entirety. If and when he had an apprentice that could potentially exceed him I think he'd acknowledge that possibility, even as he fought tooth and nail to make sure it doesn't happen.

Sith ideology is based on Satanism. The idea is that they give up their connection to the living force in order for material power, and like all Satanists, they want to live forever because they know there is no after life for them, their soul is gone. Sheev had no intention of ever dying.

Why? It makes sense, especially in regards to Sith views on life and as George, said they represent material wants and desires while in a pursuit for knowledge to satisfy physical needs. There's also a mixture of demonology mixed in there since Sith can create their own manner of demons in the form of sithspawn. Then there's sith sorcery which occasionally seems more akin to witchcraft. Not to mention a lot of the emotions and wants that sith stereotypically fawn over fit with most of the 7 deadly sins. Even Sion and Nihilus can be considered embodiments of these, with Sion representing Wrath and Nihilus representing Gluttony.

Not really, no. They overlap from time to time because both Jews and Satanists are materialists, but they have different mythologies. The reason you sometimes see Jews using Satanic imagery is because it's a way to mock Christians, who they (largely) despise.

On the other hand, there are some Satanists who absolutely despise Jews. So it's really a mixed bag. Satanism is almost entirely a larp. The only real constants in Satanism are a reverence for material pleasures, a penchant for misanthropic contrarianism, and a tendency to blow smoke up your own ass. So Satanists and Jews can get along with one another, and they often do, but there's no actual requirement for it.

Well the Sith obviously differ from Satanists in the fact that in the Star Wars universe, magic is real, and in the real world there is nothing more than the mundane, as depressing as that is.

Like everything else in Star Wars, The Sith are an amalgam of similar archetypes. The Empire for example could be compared to the British Empire, the Third Reich, or even the United States itself. It isn't a direct copy of any of them (that's where Disney fails big time) it's simply using a combination of familiar motifs and cultural touchstones to give off that Imperial vibe which is timeless and universal.

Second, "satanism" has been around forever. The concept of a uniform religion being recent is true, but people have been worshiping the devil forever, whether in the form of pagan idols or outright desire for wickedness; pic related.

Third, what a ridiculous concept, that Satanism has nothing to do with Christianity.

said with the Empire resembling several real world armies, but again, the similarities are superficial or have similar motivations, which are again superficial. SW does a good job of setting up a unique and alien setting that's unique and out there with with enough real world parallels to make it easy to access.

A lot of anons confused this comic with the previous Darth Vader marvel comic that features the Aphra roastie. This isn't the same comic. I'm confused by all the marvel comics too, but this is the 2017 comic. The Aphra Darth Vader comic was from 2015 and it was shit.

>>25712

>There are one or two Dark Horse comics that show Sheev's relationship with Vader to be almost parental

I don't want it to go that far, rather it just makes sense to me that Sheev would still act with the same personality toward Anakin as it was during the prequels. It makes no sense that all of a sudden Sheev acts like a total mustache-twirling villain and stranger and completely forget his charisma from the prequels. That's what this comic did right. It brought back Prequal Sheev.

>>25718

I disagree, because it's just tedious to go through personally. You're right that Force Unleashed is the perfect example of how tired I am of Vader being treated like a bitch.

Can we stay on topic and discuss the comic please?

Anyway, I read it initially and it started off well enough, but it quickly lost its charm after the 6th or so issue, which proved this would have been better off as a short series like the Lando comics. The most recent issues just use the stupid World between Worlds concept from Rebels to try and bring back Padme and it resulted in one of the most lackluster fights one could expect regardless of the hype. This time travel shtick is getting on my nerves.

I agree with you, but the comic you're talking about is the 2015 one. This thread is about 2017 version because Marvel keeps making shitty new Vader titles every year to keep interest in their shit comics afloat, since Vader is the only real best seller after they fucked up with Star Wars. The 2017 issue is just slightly better than the 2015 one, but that's not saying much.

Well no fucking duh. But the state of all the new comics are just abysmal with all of them having terrible writing, dialogue and characters, but the worst thing has been the art. The only series with remotely decent art is the Vader comics and some Afra issues (a waste of talent if you ask me). But the main Star Wars comics focusing on Luke, Han and Leia are just horrible. They're just tracing pictures of the actors now and the anatomy is all wonky.

I don't mind Sheev discussion at all, but just saying "this is terrible" without any explanation is OT neckbeard-tier. It's better than most EU shit I've read, and this is coming from someone who hates Disney's shit too. EU was better for games, but I admire what Charles Soule did with Sheev and Vader. At least in the beginning issues, I haven't read past issue 15 yet.

>>25843

>The 2017 issue is just slightly better than the 2015 one

I disagree. I couldn't stand Kieron Gillen's 2015 comic. Too much focus on roasties like Leia and Aphra, and Vader acted like a doormat robot. Also let's not forget the WE WUZ SHERLOCK HOLMES N SHIET character. The two aren't even comparable, in my opinion.

I get the feeling that this whole thread is just going to turn into mindless purism of everything post-EU is trash no matter what, though, so if that's the case I'll just leave it here and be on my way.

We explained to you why it sucks. Vader and Sheev aren't buddies, Vader is Sheev's bitch, just like Dooku and Maul were. If you want to hear people sucking off the mouse, you can go to reddit or any other normie website.

Sheev is a Sith, it's survival of the fittest. Obviously if someone is stronger, the weaker disciple gets replaced. That's just common knowledge. It doesn't mean that Sheev's entire charisma from the prequels should just be swept under the rug and act like he's just a 1-dimensional baddie now. It's funny because this comic makes Sheev more true to the Prequels than most everything else. But I doubt you even read it.

Obviously Sith ideology is based on Catholicism. The Emperor is clearly a stand in for the Pope; he even dwells in the Imperial City - Vatican City. And just like Catholics they abandon scripture and the word of God/Jesus (the teachings of the Jedi) in favour of material goods.

Hahaha, holy shit. Do you even know what Charisma is? Yes, Sheev is Charismatic, and what does he use that Charisma to do? Trick people into becoming his pawns. We see what happens to Dooku at the very beginning of Revenge of the Sith! Dooku is shocked because Sheev charmed him too. When you become Sheev's apprentice you are making a deal with the devil. It takes a big idiot to think Sheev isn't meant to represent pure evil. Evil is seductive, that's the whole point, but it's still evil.

Anakin made a deal with the devil, and he became the devil's dog. That's whole point of his story, he descends into hell (mustafar) and loses his soul (becomes more machine than man) He isn't truly Anakin again until his son redeems him in Return of the Jedi.

There's a difference between being a charismatic Sith and being just a figure of evil that only knows how to spout menacing one-liners.

But it's the same shit they've been doing in every other Disney Vader comic.

The only difference I see so far is the art is a lot better than that awful last series where everyone looked like a mixture of tracing and CGI.

Are you fucking kidding me? It was bad enough when that first Disney Star Wars comic had Vader using Stormtroopers as human shields to block laser blasts when he could have just used his lightsaber.

What is up with Disney/Marvel and their penchant for the bad guys always killing their own men?

Anon, I thought you said this Vader was in line with the Prequels version of Anakin? Anakin was always portrayed as caring about his men. Even in the original trilogy Vader only killed officers.

And don't tell me I didn't read the dialogue. The droid even tells Vader he has the docking codes!

Man, fuck this comic.

I just realized this is the same shit as the last issue, a contrived action scene where Vader slaughters mooks for no reason. He literally had the docking codes, he is literally a high ranking member of the Empire, and for some reason he decides to slaughter Imperial soldiers.

Seriously, anon, how is this in character?

No, this comic is more in line with how Prequels did Sheev, we didn't really get much of Vader in the Prequels. I did mention that Vader is much more destructive (than Sheev) in the OP. It lines up with Vader choking out that moff for no good reason in the OT, but I agree that it's a major flaw of Vader's, that even gets addressed by Sheev later.

Once again, thanks to decompressed storytelling and a lot of filler, we have an entire issue where nothing happens.

Lets break down the first two issues so far:

>Sheev tells Vader he needs to build a lightsaber

>Sheev drops Vader off on a planet with a ship

>Vader flies that ship to an Imperial outpost

>Vader then decides to slaughter everyone at that outpost for no reason

>Vader then gets information on where a surviving Jedi is

I'm going to guess the entire next issue is just Vader fighting the Jedi and then getting another clue at the very end.

You're using the same argument that RLM uses to shit on PT, because why did Vader kill all his former friends and family in the Jedi Order just like that. He wants to constantly test his strength. Anakin more than anyone lives to fight. He's a Sith. Let him act like one. It's a flaw, but at least he's not being an emotional wreck that's supposed to be "strong" but can't sleep because he's so emotional about it.

No, I'm not. They were taking things out of context. I'm putting things into context.

Lol, that's such a retarded statement, I don't even know where to start. Vader should be an emotional wreck, he killed his wife, and he thinks he killed his children, all because he fell for Sheev's lies. Vader should hate himself, he should be self-destructive, not just randomly killing clones. He has no reason to be angry at clones, he has every reason to be angry at himself.

But I'm not going to get into this now, because if I do then I'll never finish storytiming this comic.

The last think he knows is that Padme betrayed him with Obi Wan. The key factor here is that he did choke that roastie bitch out and Obi Wan had to intervene. Venting his frustration by fighting is exactly what Anakin would do. But we can get into this later, yeah.

This is definitely a step up from the last comics, even though Vader fighting a Jedi is nothing new, it is at least something compelling. This fight has some actual weight to it as both parties have a reason to be fighting and both parties are known.

All that being said, the first issue should have been this. They could have skipped the bandit planet bullshit, and the clone bullshit, and had Vader search through the Jedi archives on Coruscant for this guy's files or whatever after talking to Sheev about needing a lightsaber, and then jumped to how this issue started. There was no need for everything that happened in Issue 1 and 2 to be as long as it was.

There's nothing to complain about with this issue. It's Vader fighting and killing a Jedi, embracing the dark side, being evil and angry. It works fine here because it doesn't contradict anything else. The series definitely should have skipped the Bandits and Clones, and gotten here as quickly as possible.

And once again, he has to ruin what could have been a perfectly fine issue by having some stupid shit where Vader smashes the guards against the windows. This reeks of Kylo Ren, not Vader. I don't buy it, there's simply no reason for it. But whatever, it's not as bad as the shit with the clones. So the Lightsaber arc is complete then. I guess each arc will be roughly five issues?

Oh fuck, this is gonna get so bad. Okay, I did five issues, I'll do the next five later when people are actually online, so I'm not just torturing myself for no reason.

So far, from these first five issues, it's better than the other Disney Vader comics. But that's not saying much, because those Aiden Gieron comics or whoever that faggot writer is, were absolute dogshit. The Dark Horse stuff is still infinitely superior to this. We'll see where the rest of this goes later.

Good art, and mediocre to occasionally infuriating writing.

Yeah, 5 per arc seems about right. After next arc it'll be all new things for me as well so I'm looking forward to it.

I still think you vastly underestimate Anakin's rage, honestly. He was about to kill Padme herself in rage, and had no issue slaughtering the entire Jedi babbies. But I understand your complaint. I just don't see that it contradicts anything presented in his character. I don't remember him ever going out of his way to save his crewmates. In fact he was so reckless that he'd constantly be putting his clones in danger too, like when assaulting Dooku's ship.

In that Dooku ship scene, he says he's going to go back and save the clone pilots, and then Obi Won tells him not to. Obi Wan tells him that the Clones job is to die, and that their job is to save Palpatine. Aside from that, I'll admit I get a lot of Anakin looking our for his clones from the Dark Horse Clone Wars comics (pre even the genndy series) which were great. I'll have to storytime them sometime.

I don't mind Vader's rage being a thing, I liked the part where he unleashes the water on the city and basically tortures that Jedi, making him watch all those innocents die because he forced Vader to chase after him. Vader being a hate fueled monster is fine with me, the problem is when he's a mindless hate fueled monster, Vader is in my opinion able to channel his anger at specific things, he saves it up, and then unleashes it on people. He doesn't just use it 24/7.

I agree that it's a huge flaw. But if he was perfect at channeling that rage then he wouldn't have killed Padme. There has to be a reason why he's the apprentice and Sheev is the master. And as in the OP, Sheev even brings this stuff up and tries to guide Vader to be wise when exercising his power. Perhaps that's how I should've stated it from the start: I like how Sheev actually tries to teach Vader in this, because that's what he's supposed to be doing as the master. In everything else, Sheev basically just ignores Vader unless he needs Vader to do something.

That alienation is necessary, though. Sheev does ignore and neglect Vader, because he views Vader as failed investment. He wanted the Chosen One, and he got it for a very brief period, and then Vader got defeated on Mustafar and turned into broken man. The way Sheev treats him after that point is what plants the seed in Vader's head to tell Luke that they can overthrow the Emperor and rule the galaxy together as father and son. The moment Anakin goes into the armor, he loses the father figure that Sheev was playing as, because Sheev no longer sees any point in keeping up the act, he already owns him, he already broke him.

I see Anakin's entire story as him being desperate for a father figure, that's why he goes to the dark side in the first place. Qui Gon was the father he shoud have had, but Sideous' apprentice killed Qui Gon, and Obi Wan simply couldn't be the father figure Anakin needed, instead Obi Wan treated Anakin like a brother, and Anakin did not need a brother, he need to be guided. That's where Sheev came in and manipulated the young man.

Vader planned on overthrowing Sheev since before Mustafar, that's why he told Padme that he's stronger than the Emperor and will usurp him. It's a difference in taste. I want Vader to be a Sith, because he's Darth Vader for a reason. You want him more to be like a dark jedi. Even after Mustafar, Vader is probably still stronger than Maul and Dooku, it's just now there's actually a chance of him being replaced if Sheev finds someone stronger. That doesn't mean he's a lost cause and Sheev would just treat him like he wasn't a Sith. I get your point of view, but I simply don't like it. At its core it really is about turning Vader into a dark jedi figure instead of a Sith.

No, the Muun is right. This is out of character for Vader and it's trash.

Even if this shit-tier justification made sense it still doesn't explain why Vader is slaughtering clones after the lengths he went to to protect his men.

Rest of the comic is okay. Not great, Dark Horse did Vader-hunts-Jedi much better, but the fight with the Jedi was all right. Channeling the dark side into a focusing crystal to make it red isn't as good as the original lore about crystals but it wasn't as retarded as I thought it would be. But the series is very fillerific, and Vader going on temper tantrums like a petulant child is neither compelling nor in character for him. Especially in the last scene with Tarkin, where he just spergs out for no reason, and doesn't even have a specific trigger for his anger. Like other guy said, it reeks of Kylo Ren and the hopeless plebians who thought he was an actual character.

What about the fact that the royal guards brandished his weapons at him, because Vader in a suit is still new and no one really knows who he is outside of Palpatine, who obviously didn't inform his royal guards about him? What about the fact that no one showed him respect when walking into the room, even though he knows very well that he's stronger than everyone there besides Sheev? So, he asserted himself to show that he's not a limp noodle.

It's not that your criticisms are bad per se, because it's your opinion if you want Vader to be a bitch, it's just that you're being dishonest.

Let's make a concerted effort to analyze this with honesty and no personal attacks. Both of you see Vader as a dark jedi tool, and not as a Sith apprentice. I'm not saying this as an accusation, but let's look at what's been stated:

You do not want Vader to be trained by Sheev.

>Sheev does ignore and neglect Vader, because he views Vader as failed investment.

You do not want Vader to assert himself against his lessers when they pull their weapons out at him.

>Vader going on temper tantrums like a petulant child is neither compelling nor in character for him. Especially in the last scene with Tarkin, where he just spergs out for no reason

You want Vader to be permanently torn up about Padme, whom he tried to choke to death of his own volition.

>Vader should be an emotional wreck, he killed his wife, and he thinks he killed his children, all because he fell for Sheev's lies. Vader should hate himself, he should be self-destructive

You want Vader to be broken goods who just obeys Sheev for no other reason than because he's so mindfucked.

>Vader got defeated on Mustafar and turned into broken man

Whether you realize it or not, you two view Vader as a dark jedi failure, not as a Sith apprentice. You view him as dark jedi that's being used by a real Sith with no chance of becoming something more than a dark jedi failure. I get why you've come to this impression, but it really shouldn't be like this. Vader isn't able to fulfill his real potential of being the strongest force-user, but he's still powerful enough to be a Sith. And once he stops being powerful enough to be a Sith, then he gets replaced. This is what happens to all Sith who become weak, it's part of the Rule of Two. But the key here is that he is still a Sith apprentice.

That's why he calls Sheev his master.

That's why Sheev calls him his apprentice.

So I ask you again to give him a chance at being a Sith instead of trying to bust his balls for trying to be a Sith. Because it's more interesting this way. It's more interesting because we get to see how Sheev imparts his lessons, and because we get to see a different side of Vader that isn't just hopeless and without future until Luke "redeems" him. This is infinitely more interesting than Sheev being just a force of evil with nothing interesting to say, and Vader being just a broken puppet that does what he's told.

>That alienation is necessary

It isn't. It really isn't. Bane used Zannah as a tool. He trained other apprentices behind her back. But they still had a master-teacher relationship. That's what it means to be a Sith following the Rule of Two. That's what Sheev should be doing. Constantly challenge Vader. Constantly see if there's someone stronger than Vader. But also constantly teach Vader until something better comes along, because until then Vader is the best thing Sheev has at his disposal.

And I'd just like to point out that this comic really tries to say the same thing I am (so far). An example is this panel on Mustafar. It's showing how Sheev didn't give up on Vader being his apprentice, and sends him to be reborn as Sith.

>Here, you will reclaim yourself.

>From the site of your greatest defeat, you shall rise–strong, unbroken…

Isn't this better than Sheev just ignoring Vader until he needs an emotional bitch to wipe his ass? It's better for me, and I really can't say why you prefer the alternative.

I didn't even realize they were changing lightsaber crystal lore because I was never big into the technical aspects of everything in the universe, but of course they are. It's so obnoxious. I remember being super annoyed at what The Farce Awakens did with yperspace/lightspeed and the part where they jump into the planet's atmosphere. That opened up so many problems, and then in The Last Jedi they made it so you can win any battle by light speed kamikaze through another ship, opening up the question of why they didn't do that to the Death Star?

Have you ever considered that it's not actually Vader that you like? But that you just like the power fantasy of being a powerful Sith with no limits? Vader is a broken Anakin, if you think Prequel Anakin was "bitch" then Vader should be even more of one. Personally, I don't think either of them were bitches, I think they were realistic depictions of a child who grew up without a father, who was destined for great things and had great power, but was never actually guided by anyone of worth.

The way Vader acts in these comics seems a lot more bitchy to me, lashing out at random bystanders (Clones, Guards, etc) and not being able to control his temper or channel it against those worthy of it, seems like bitch behavior to me. It seems like Kylo Ren behavior. But anyways, I'm gonna storytime the next five now.

Not a fan of the inquisitors are at all. Not just because they look absolutely retarded, but because I prefer the version where most remaining Jedi were tracked down and personally killed by Vader. I've never been a fan of more characters with red lightsabers, I think Vader and Sideous are enough. When you throw in all these Dark Jedi (and Jedi) at the same time period as the Empire, it just feels wrong. I didn't like The Force Unleashed either, so I'm not just shitting on Disney here. It was always a problem with EU writers wanting to making their own OC, do not steal, force users.

Also,

Why the fuck is the Librarian still alive?

Man, fuck off with this shit.

I don't know what happened to her in the EU, but I see no reason why she wouldn't have been killed during Vader's assault on the Jedi Temple in Revenge of the SIth. Are we supposed to believe he didn't kill any named Jedi while he was there? Looks like another filler arc full of shit that isn't actually interesting.

That seems to be the case with the writers and fans of these comics. You'll even see examples of this in the comments section of Star Wars Theory or on forums like resetera. They just wanna see Vader go full super sith and destroy planets with ease rather than actually caring about plot while also hating the idea of seeing him at his most emotionally fragile or having any sincere character depth.

Dude looks like a fucking Ninja Turtles villain. Fuck, Rebels had horrible art design. Also, the idea that all these inquisitors are ex-jedi, I guess from the Jedi temple, raises a lot of red flags. Why would the Emperor risk having these people in his organization? Makes way more sense when the Jedi are actually eradicated and it's just Vader tracking down rogue force users.

I didn't address your Sith/Dark Jedi tangent because I think it's a meaningless distinction. I know that there's tons of Sith lore about what Sith are and what their rules are, but it doesn't feel honest to me. Sith, the same as Jedi, is just a title. The Jedi Order in the Prequels is a bureaucratic mess, it's a corruption. I see no reason why Sheev's Sith would be anymore traditional than Yoda's Jedi were.

Whether someone is a Dark Jedi or a Sith is really just an opinion. The Rule of Two is a rule, not a law.

It's objectively more interesting if Sheev has a chance to speak about more than evil one-liners and if Vader is a character that is able to achieve some form of character development instead of being a broken character. If he were a broken character like that, then Sheev would've killed him way before ANH events. I don't want an all powerful Vader that can destroy planets and stuff like that, I just want a character that's mentally stable and not some puppet, because it's a more interesting character.

I'm simply not buying any of this Jocasta stuff. She was a dumb Librarian who was so sure of the Jedi Archives that she assumed Kamino simply didn't exist. She was meant to be a representation of the failure of bureaucracy. This comic is blowing smoke up the ass of character that should never have been mentioned again after Revenge of the Sith. She probably got her ass shot by Clone Troopers while acting indignant and oblivious about what they were doing in the Jedi Temple.

Sorry, but this ain't Star Wars. It just ain't.

She's meant to be an illustration of what's wrong with the Jedi. This comic is suggesting that she's actually a good person, and not a withered up old hag. It's putting my point of view about her in the mouth of Sheev, implying that the point of view one gets about her from watching the films is wrong. This comic is revisionist, it's bad. This comic is trying to turn her into a cool character because she has a vag, under Disney Jocasta is just Leia, or any other female character. She can do no wrong.

Your post is baffling. You seem to think that whatever Sheev says must mean it's automatically wrong for some reason only you could discern. When this comic has Sheev be right more than once, and this is no exception. It's the same thing with you thinking Jocasta is presented as anything else but a jedi with obvious flaws. What makes her cool in how she's presented? The fact that she knows how to be an archivist?

They are saying she survived the Jedi Purge, for one. Which automaticlaly makes her more skilled than all of the named Jedi we see get gunned down by clones. That means in Disney's eyes, Jocasta is a greater Jedi than Plo Koon, Aayla Secura, and so many others.

Then they have her being an action hero here, with a secret lair and more, which I'm sorry, is fucking stupid for her character.

This is Jocasta

She's old as fuck. She's not going to survive the Jedi Purge when much younger and fitter Jedi did not. I see no reason why she wouldn't have been at the Temple in Episode 3. I see no reason why she wouldn't have been gunned down by either clones, or killed by Anakin. I don't understand why you like this.

Because it's such a fucking little thing to get tripped up over. There's countless secret passages in the Jedi Temple and it makes sense that Jocasta would be a priority to evacuate since she knows how to make holocrons, which not all jedi know how to do. What if she had help from all the other Jedi to escape, precisely because of that ability? You're not going into this with an open mind so don't pretend like you are.

My honest opinion is that Jocasta, is an old fuck who got shot by clones and was not a super special action hero.

If you'd post the rest of the comic you'd see that she's not a super special action hero and that she gets BTFO'd fast by the spinny faggot. The same spinny faggot that got BTFO's in no time flat by Vader. It makes it obvious that with her lack of skill she would've had help to escape. Which again makes sense since she's the archivist. If you're gonna try to save anyone, it should be the one who remembers the most knowledge and can record it down.

Except she didn't actually know shit, as was shown by Obi Wan in Attack of the Clones. Her books are still there, so there's no reason to keep her alive. This plot is incredibly fucking dumb. She was never important, Disney just wanted to make her important because she's a woman.

In the comic where Vader fights the Dark Lady, she is using the living force which all around them in the vegetation, and all he dialogue is really good, and she's an original character, she's not a character from the movies with a bunch of baggage. Vader also wrecks her, try reading it sometime. She also doesn't use and gun and she obviously is way more fit than Jocasta.

Because arguing is fun. This feels like an old fashioned nerd spat you would see in a 90s comic shop before everything went to shit.

Its an old fashioned kind of in-fighting that heats up the spirit and it frankly feels good seeing them fight over something like this, so let them keep going.

To be frank, seeing her get taken out like this is more satisfying. The Vader comic itself is pretty good for the first 5 or 7 issues before going to shit, but the stuff surrounding Jocasta is just lame even when compared to the other shit moments in the comic. Honestly, Marvel should've just stuck with keeping Vader's comic as a mini series.

The whole "you have to follow & mirror the film characterizations & logic" thing honestly bugs the fuck out of me. The films are anything but perfect, Lucas contradicts himself all over the place, and changed his mind so many goddamn times about shit trying to weave his "in the moment" mistakes into a whole far greater than it ever was, and failing, constantly belittling the great or genius bits by trying to cram his low talent period bullshit in to fit with them.

Disney fucking sucks & they have no idea wtf they're doing with most SW things, but there have been a scant few working under various parts of their umbrella who've tried to improve things, and not done "bad" work at it.

At its best under Lucas SW was still more often than not far better in concept than actual execution.

Nice attempt to create a false consensus here, at least change your flag before you post moron.

As for my take: While this Darth Vader series is the best I've seen from the new Marvel Star Wars regime, that is a very low bar to achieve. It might not have the annoying Mary Sue-pandering of Dr. Aphra or the garbage tier art of the main cast's comics, but it still feels very in-congruent with the films. Most of the fights seem like complete filler, the only one with any merit being the Jedi mountain fight. The comic would have been much better if we just spent a few issues of Vader going through the trials and tribulations to reach his target rather then spend it on meaningless filler that doesn't go anywhere.

Another thing that bothered me was that Vader seems to kill his own men at a whim. While he did choke Admiral Motti and other officers during the OT, those were for the purpose of putting someone in their place, and punishment for incompetence. He did not kill his own blindly without reason, and it seems very reminiscent of Kylo Ren's temper tantrum's in the sequel trilogy. Also, the fact that the Emperor did not tell any officers or clone commanders who Darth Vader was, is incredibly stupid. So much wasted resources and deaths could have been averted if the Palpatine just announced that Vader was his right-hand man and gave him some authority like he already should.

Jocasta Nu surviving would have been okay with me, if they had given an explanation as to how. From what the films showed us, she had spent most of her time in the Archives, and didn't seem to have much fighting ability. But zoom to this comic, she's just hiding out under a waterfall somewhere with her nigger (lover/slave?) who looked like he just walked out of Starbucks sipping his soy for the day. The lightsaber plasma gun was the dumbest shit I've ever seen, every fight between Jedi has been resolved with lightsabers. Lightsabers themselves are individually crafted on top of that, so to see a ranged weapon that melts lightsabers is baffling. If the gun needed a power source why doesn't it just use the actual crystal rather than the device around it? It's so baffling and just, not Star Wars that it defies me to find an explanation as to why they included it.

They constantly made three book series of great material into 9 book series of averagely mediocre material through constant stretching, padding, and filler. Fate of the Jedi was probably the worst example; that one would've only been "alright" even as a trilogy.

Small tidbit of action, a second assassination attempt in the form of planetary defense trying to blow Vader out of the sky. Vader has enough of this shit and decides to confront Sheev about this directly. Sheev more or less ignores him.

And then a response. Some words of wisdom from Sheev toward his apprentice. He says that he doesn't test, he teaches, but that's a little bullshit. Or just not the whole truth. He tested and prodded around Anakin when he was still a Jedi, and he does it with Vader too. Still I enjoy that he's trying to share his philosophy with Vader. This is not long after Anakin's turn against the Order, so he really doesn't know much of anything about being Sith still.

We had two masked individuals talking about the Vader assassination attempts. It seems that some higher ranking members of the Empire are concerned about Vader and the obvious favoritism Sheev displays for him. They even attempted to turn the two against eachother. Vader comes up with a plan to prove his power in the Empire through a method that I'm sure a lot of you will disagree with. Even so, it's now clear that Vader is the Emperor's voice, and if someone is trying to get to Vader they'll invoke the the Emperor's ire doing so.

Honestly this is part of the reason why this is a gap that needed to be touched on. I don't know if you've ever had your own "core" shaken & seriously compromised, but man, that fucking rage is all encompassing.

I don't know why they got included, it almost seems like they were forced in by some disney CEO that told Soule to include these fuckers in.

We end by catching a veiled glimpse of the third Jedi on the chopping block. Outside of the inquisitors which make me groan every time, it's a good issue setting up the Empire intervention on Mon Cala. I don't think it's the Jedi who blew up the imperial ambassador's shuttle, but it doesn't look like it was Tarkin either. My guess is that it's the grey-colored fat Mon Calamari who seemed particularly hostile to the Empire.

We're told that if they exposed Vader for being a "Jedi" it would've hurt Palpatine's image with the public, since he gave that big speech about the Jedi betrayal. It's a bit of a stretch, though. I doubt most people would've given a shit about it as long as the order is dismantled.

Overall the art for this issue was impressive because you had a lot of stuff happening action-wise. The fighting, the whales and water devastation looked nice. The best part of both this and last chapter was Tarkin, though. I hope the inquisitors drowned and we won't see them again. I'll stop here.

Then George made a mistake, because in the films we see that the 501st, Obi Wan, Bail Organa, and Yoda all know Vader is Anakin. There's no way other people don't know as well. The other clones would obviously be notified that Vader is the Emperor's second in command.

Can I just ask you, do you really think this is better? Vader being just a robotic lapdog, a Grievous 2.0 but who also constantly thinks about Padme? Sheev being just there to sound and look evil and nothing else?

Yes, yes I do. Because it's consistent with the Vader we see in the films. Vader is Palpatine's dog, that's literally his character, he almost lets Palpatine kill his own son. The Vader that you like, isn't present in any of the movies.

You don't actually like Vader, you just like his armor, and you like power fantasies.

Try watching the Prequels sometime. Padme is someone that saw Anakin as a slave, she's one of the few people who saw his true self, and still loved him. Padme was his only connection to a normal life. He went from being Watto's slave, to the Jedi's slave, to being Palpatine's slave. His only moments of actual freedom were with Padme, on Tattoine, on Naboo.

Try actually thinking about Anakin's arc once and awhile. Him being Palpatine's slave is not a good time, it's not fun. He killed the one person who ever truly loved him, and all because he fell for an evil old wizard's lies. Presenting the Emperor as anything other than a devil figure after Anakin has seen his true face makes no sense.

That's hilarious because I hate his armor, and the Vader in this 2017 comic is flawed to shit. You noticed it as well, he gives in to his rage and makes mistakes because of it, like killing the clones, killing Jocasta before Sheev could get to her, and destroying the force sensitive babby information. I just like that he's an actual character and not just a dog. I liked when Prequels expanded on Anakin's character and made him not just a dog. I like that he gives in to his rage at this point in time, because it makes sense considering he almost killed his wife in rage, too.

The very fact that he did kill his wife is what has made him less inclined to go into fits of rage. He is actively suppressing his own power because he realizes it can't give him the only thing he ever wanted, Padme's life.

So if the death of Padme cured him of his rage, then why does he obey Palpatine unquestionably like a dog, you yourself said it's "not a good time". So why does he do it? You also said that Palpatine is just a devil-figure and nothing more than a despotic master. He's not a mentor. So then why does Vader stay with him? He's cured of rage, cured of any reason to stay to the Dark Side. He's evidently not broken enough to be useless and powerless. As a mechanic and engineer, he could easily live independently even with his burned body. Why did Lucas insist so much on making Sheev call him "apprentice"?

The fact that he's had a "flaw" artificially grafted to him doesn't make him a good character. Compelling characters have their flaws and strengths rise organically from their experiences, something this Vader clearly lacks. All you're showing here is that your standards for good characterization are so low that you'll say anyone that isn't a Mary Sue is a good character.

That's the point of his character interaction with Sheev and why he would be willing to create plans to betray him. His story is not about being a badass, its about being a fallen hero with a broken spirit. Half the shit he does in these comics doesn't even match up with the broken and limited man we see in the original films.

That's what happens, in my opinion. Prequels established two flaws with Anakin: he wanted to enact change by force without being limited by bureaucracy, and he could easily fall into fits of rage especially concerning the people he love, like the time he massacred the Tusken and choked Padme. That rage isn't limited to just matters concerning Padme, though.

You're very low-IQ.

Here's what you don't get about Vader, he never became a full Sith. There was always a bit of the light side still in him, only Luke was able to sense it, but it was still there. You simply want Vader to be someone that he isn't, you keep on saying you want him to be a Sith, but he isn't a Sith, he's a broken man, who gave into the dark side in the hopes of saving a life. He didn't want power in order to dominate the galaxy for the sake of dominating the galaxy, he wanted power so he could keep those he cared about safe. He went down the wrong path, for the right reasons. I don't think you'll ever get this, though.

This is what I mean. I said a massive flaw of his, is that he can't control his rage. You said that he can suppress it and channel it because Padme died so the reason for uncontrollable rage is gone according to you, so he's cured of that flaw. I didn't say you said he never feels anger, but that you said he doesn't fall victim to mindless anger. He's not afflicted by that flaw anymore according to you. He's cured of that flaw. This is what you said, isn't that correct? And then you twist my words that I said he never feels emotions. Do you see how difficult it is?

No, that's not what I said. And you really do seem to have autism, which is fine, but stop pretending that you don't. What I said was that he is suppressing his rage because he remembers what happens when he gave into it, he destroyed the only thing he ever cared about. There is no longer any real motivation to be powerful. It's not that he's not getting angry, it's that he's depressed, he's apathetic, the person that makes him most angry is himself. He's not going to sperg out on some random stormtroopers or security guards, they have no emotional hold over him. He's not going to get angry at people that don't matter to him or that don't remind him of other people.

Even in this >>26186 post you implied that he can control his emotions (though I know you're referring specifically to acting out on mindless rage) but that doesn't mean he doesn't have emotions.

>What I said was that he is suppressing his rage because he remembers what happens when he gave into it, he destroyed the only thing he ever cared about.

The key thing to understand here is that he can suppress his rage according to you. Can we just accept that you think he can do this thing? Because if he can, then he's not a victim of falling (quite often) into mindless rage. I would dispute that, since we've seen Anakin act on his rage even before Padme with the Tusken, and with Dooku.

>you have autism

I don't, but I'm trying really hard to reach out and try to form an understanding. It's probably useless. I feel like I have to fight you over even the simplest statement, but I'm giving it an honest shot.

Do you understand that that's something that happened in the past? And what was he angry about? Them raping his mother. So he killed them all. What was he angry at Padme for? For betryaing him. He's angry about that because he loves her. Once Padme is dead, there's no one left in the world that he loves. Think about that. Without anything to love, how can he have anything to be angry about? All that's left to him is despair and depression.

No. There is also pain. A brutal fucking ton of emotional, physical, and spiritual pain. And in many, rage is born from pain.

That's going to be a problem, because we don't know what happens with Anakin between movies. Do you remember how ROTS ended? It ended with Vader screaming in rage and messing up the entire place. And then we don't know what happened until the OT, where he's much calmer, but by then many years have passed. I know you're going to say that his

>NOOOOOOOOO

moment is when he exhausted all his rage after finding out about Padme's fate, but you really can't say for sure when exactly this period of rage ended. Please understand this. The movies don't show him to be depressed and apathetic. The last scene we see is him still being very passionately angry. I don't know why I'm repeating myself, it's probably because I know what I said will be misconstrued yet again.

That's really one of the problems with this whole series, honestly; because it's always been far better in concept than execution (and some parts of the execution have been truly atrocious) we all kind of have to make our own sense of things. Everyone has their own little headcanons; we can sway one another's to a certain degree, but some core bits of it are individually set in stone essentially.

I think there's a difference between being awkward and being a sperg. Kylo is an emo with no legit reason for being that way, while Anakin was raised as a slave, then taken into a fucked up monastic order and forced to become a celibate while starting puberty. Anakin has all kinds of legit reasons for being odd, but it never felt spergy to me. When he kills the Tuskens, he's fully justified, that's not sperging, that's just righteous anger.

This is the Vader I like. I made the mistake of looking at the comments on that comics site, and there are Disney fans talking about how this comic is shit and how this Vader is one-dimensional unlike the amazing stuff Marvel has done with the character.

I guess I just have to admit I have absolutely nothing in common with modern Star Wars fans. I'm 24 and I feel like a boomer.

>When he kills the Tuskens, he's fully justified, that's not sperging, that's just righteous anger

Fully agreed there. The sperging to me comes from his complete inability to articulate exactly what his (justified) problems with the Jedi are (viewing attachments as a path to the dark, but attachments to the ORDER & what it needs are totally fine, and this view coupled with truly shitty advice from other Jedi costs him his mother's life despite the force clearly screaming at him to save her; and he feels it will also cost him Padme), and it coming out instead in immense asspain & teenage attitude over Obi's faults & not being made a Master. Acting outside the order with shit like executing Dooku, yet still supposedly beholden to it, and constantly flip flopping around.

That's a fair point. The fact that we all have our different takes on Vader is fun, and it allows us to have actual conversations and disagreements. The Disney version is however the complete opposite of how I always saw him. It pains me that the Dark Horse content is being shit upon by the people who buy Wendig books and think Rogue One is a great movie.

The only thing that pisses me off is when people develop a subconscious group-enforced consensus on what's good and what isn't, and any deviation should automatically be taken out of proportion and chased off. This is what happened to the Prequels. Don't get me wrong, the Prequels have their faults, but some people acted like they were literally the worst pieces of trash ever that ruined SW. Disneyshit is basically always in the range of retarded to tolerable, but each piece of content should at least be analyzed on its own merit and demerit instead of following the herd of what's acceptable for whatever in-group you belong to.

And there definitely is this in-group bias, whether conscious or not. Just look at me. I got accused of being a disneyshill even though I never even bought anything disney, never went to the theatres. When the movies came out I was on /tv/ watching the leaks in webm format and laughing at how stupid it all was. I can guarantee that I consumed less Disney media than most anons here calling me a Disneyshill. Then there's the reddit boogeyman–it's the same story there, I don't visit because I couldn't be assed to make an account.

I really don't think that's much of a concern with anyone who was a fan before the buyout; however even I can only reread DH & EU stuff so many times. This isn't like some other "franchises" save for Marvel/DC; this shit has existed for four decades & many of us have carried it in us since childhood for the bulk of that time. It's not something that's going to go away on its own, and trying to excise it would take with it a core chunk of who some of us are.

I find myself in a stage now of trying to pick through it like a kid tossing out the lettuce from my lo mein, adding the small scattered bits I like while tossing the rest.

All that said, it's "smart" for them to try & use the chunks of time not spoken on in their new "official" canon to nudge Vader's personality to more closely mesh with Ben's, especially given the idolization. Their canon is shit but it's not like they're going to walk it back at this point, they're clearly "all in".

Good luck.

Seriously, though, there's a huge tendency in discussion about anything "hot button" to begin going off on tangents & counterarguing people other than the one you're directly interfacing with. Nearly ubiquitous it seems. I try to just toss all of that irrelevant garbage & focus on the actual points & counterpoints instead, not even speak to it. Doesn't mean I always succeed.

TLJ & the Disney tactic of going full retard ad hominem on the fanbase left a lot of deep cuts, however. I don't blame anyone for universal lashing out at them or anything from them.

That whole comic isn't any good either but still preferable to that retarded shitshow of Jocasta Nu or a spic family lasting against Vader for more than a second on that shitty biker cantina.

If anything, I feel Vader got harshly mistreated by every EU author after ep III released, they pretty much turned him into a jobber, getting his armor shredded the fuck out on every fight against random shitters or no-name useless jedi, a trend that Disney-turned fags gladly continued.

I don't know why the fuck that shit even started, portraying Darth Vader as being weak and pathetic, it's ok to show he has inner conflict, that's the whole fucking point of his character on ep VI, but making him job on fights feels really perverse from the authors, it's almost as if they were making a deconstruction of what Vader is.

Darth Vader is supposed to be strong and evil, he commands and aura of authority and chokes officers who dare to talk back, so they make him vulnerable, in a physical and mental sense, and portray him as being really petty. There's a dark horse comic where he throws a cripple imperial officer, who was his sidekick for that mission, out of a balcony because the guy found favor with the emperor, which felt as it was a caricature of villainy instead of sith lord behaviour.

I never liked what they did with Vader in the EU, the portrayal was inferior to what was shown in the films, I wonder if some of that came from authors lashing out against the character of Anakin Skywalker, which was shat upon really hard for years due to prequel bashing faggotry.

Hell, I think Vader got better treatment out of the Tales series than from his oneshots or Empire.

Perhaps i'm looking at this as if it had any depth, when it's something that's devoid of it. They just make Vader job on fights so they can have some cheap tension, and uniforms getting shredded is a staple of comicbooks, no matter how badly that reflects on his fighting skill.

I've got no clue what /sw/'s consensus on Vader was, I just stated my opinion which ended up being the opposite of what /sw/ wanted. I got into this to begin with because I checked /co/ and saw this and thought it was dumb as hell. Here you have big bad Vader not even being able to sleep if he hears about slavery. I know it's supposed to be touching or something, but he's also supposed to be someone you can respect as an antagonist I think. That's why I dislike forcing his obsession over Padme, and forcing this shallow "I obey because I'm broken" concept.

And because I know you fags will bitch at me about it, yes I know Anakin was obsessed with Padme. But she's dead. I'm not saying memories of Padme shouldn't be used because she's obviously an important character to him but does he really have to think about a dead chick 24/7 for fuck's sake.

He's honestly the kind of character that works far more effectively if you don't break the mysteries of who he really is, or his own personal thoughts & motivations. The PT revealed too much, and too much of the characterization he got in them was George trying to fix the ROTJ problems with him after table flipping all his plans following the divorce & forcing Vader through what should have been at least one more trilogy's worth of character development.

You mean the Gentis Coup? That was during the very early days of the Empire, Vader wasn' the seasoned sith lord, he was just entombed in his armor. It wasn't "Vader got his armor = blam, he was the veteran dark lord who doesn't act stupid".

> which felt as it was a caricature of villainy instead of sith lord behaviour.

Not really, there was a whole story building around that and it was tied to previous Empire comics. Trachta (the very same guy who would try to depoose the Sith) warned Tohm about throwing his lot with Vader. Palpatine rubbed in Vader's face that Tohm could be considerate a replacement for him.

Vader killed him because "not suffer a rival to live", he was younger, prone to rashier actions, early in his sith tutelage and disputes in the imperial court. It was to show is first steps in cold blooded, political motivated murder. He killed without anger, without joy, he killed Tohm because he was a political threat. Just like when he killed commander Vill who basically confirmed that Palpatine had contigency orders against him. "He fell", he killed the clone to avoid him telling the Emperor about Vader inquiry on the subject.

You might actually just be a little bitch if you think having a Dark Lord of the Sith not even be able to cry himself to sleep over the existence of slavery is good. He should get angry. Upset. Conflicted. Pensive and determined. That's what Prequel Anakin would've done. He's the right hand man of the Empire, if he wanted to he could go around freeing any slave he wants with a snap of his fingers. Nobody would give a shit or tell him no. Instead what does he do? Sulk all night long like an impotent retard. And you faggots call this good writing. If it wasn't in the EU and something you grew up with, and if it was presented now, you'd say that it promotes "soyboy" behaviour or something like that.

You dont understand the relationship of Vader and the Emperor and the difference of power between them. Vader was Palpatine's slave to the point of nullify himself in his presence. It was something that everybody knows. Just watch RoTJ or read the novelization. Palpatine was a black hole in the Force, is presence was enough to make even Darth Vader feel like a nobody.

Sheev would give no shits if Vader wanted to free whatever slaves crossed his path. Sheev doesn't even give a shit if Vader kills one of his moffs on a whim for fuck's sake. Vader is the second in command of the entire Empire and his word is law. You act like Sheev would get triggered if Vader decided to free up some slaves, which is abnormally retarded even for this place.

Literally only this places is so stuck up its own ass to think this. The only place where he's this pathetic lapdog who exists just to follow orders and has no spine is from your fanfic. In the movies he killed a host of Jedi and even Palpatine himself after being injured from his fight with Luke. In the movies he's presented as Sheev's apprentice, not ass-wiper. In the movies he killed a moff on a whim just for disappointing Vader and didn't give a shit. Luke forgave him and "redeemed" him from the dark side, he didn't give him fucking therapy sessions to get over his depression.

It's only in your fanfic that he's mindbroken. In your fanfic, he can't even free a slave out of fear of Sheev even though Sheev wouldn't give a fuck. In your fanfic, he's can't even sleep because of how much of a tormented soul he is. I don't even like Vader, but your fanfic is garbage, bruh.

In the movies Anakin only chopped Mace Windu hand, moved in to kill the jedi children, and was show facing Cin Drallig and his apprentices. And as Vader he never killed a "moff". He killed only 2 officers, admiral Ozzel and captain Need. Both waaay lower than a moff.

Call it fanfic, headcanon, call it whatever you like, I don't care. If Lucas wanted Vader to be a traumatized ass-wiper, he wouldn't have presented him the way he did. There's a reason why he has the same title (Darth) as Sidious, even though we know Sidious is the master and him the apprentice.

The PT did an incredible disservice to this concept, trying so hard to get it across on a lowest common denominator level it gets dumbed down to the point where it comes off as some kind of sadohomo grooming & requires headcanon gymnastics to get Vader's balls out of Sheev's purse again.

I don't know that his autism would've let him see it; there's a lot of shit in the PT he probably thought came across as he intended that then had to be clarified in novels & TCW.

If you look at the movies by themselves it's never really all that clear why Annie specifically falls for Sheev's weak pickup artist type tactics, and a lot of the lines Sheev uses on him come off that way with how they got delivered in those particular takes.

At least to me, I can never discount my own retardedness.
