VADER FINDS PADMÉ’S HANDMAIDENS! This week, Mike embarks on the first volume of the 2020 run of Darth Vader comics; Dark Heart Of The Sith, set shortly after the end of Empire Strikes Back! Vader searches for answers surrounding Padmé’s death over 20 years after it happened, travelling back to Tatooine, Naboo and even Polis Massa, all while being entangled with The Amidalans! Mike also tackles the short story found in Empire Ascendant and gives additional info on Death Troopers, Gregar Typho, Padmé’s handmaidens, Naboo’s aquatic creatures and more!
These comics are set after Empire Strikes Back (& after the first run of the Star Wars, but before the War Of the Bounty Hunters crossover). The writer for these comics is Greg Pak, Raffaele Ience was the artist and Neeraj Menon was colour artist. Issue 1 was released February 2020, Issue 5 was released September 2020 and the trade paperback collection was released November 2020. In Service To The Empire is a short story from Empire Ascendant 1, released in December 2019 and was also written by Greg Pak, with Roland Boschi as artist and Rachelle Rosenberg as colour artist.
Mike tackled the first of the 2017 Vader comics in ep 62 (continued in 66, 70 & 74) of SWCIC and for the 2015 Vader run (set after A New Hope), check out episodes 15, 17, 19, 23 & 29 of SWCIC, plus ep 41 features the Vader: Dark Visions anthology mini-series and ep 49 is the Target Vader mini-series.
Keep an eye on Mike’s other podcast; Genuine Chit-Chat where Mike recently had an hour-long conversation with artist Paolo Villanelli!
Check out last week’s SWCIC (ep 78), where the legacy of Tarkin emerges! Mike continues the 2020 run of Star Wars comics with the full second volume; Operation Starlight, which, as well as introducing Commander Zahra and Tarkin’s Will, the issues show the rebellion developing a new way to communicate due to the Empire cracking their code, with Lobot being invaluable and a flashback about Han and Poe’s parents! Mike also gives additional info on Starlight Squadron, Eriadu, The Redemption (ship), Veermoks and more!
