In recent years, Star Wars comics have given Darth Vader additional reasons to turn against the Emperor. Now, a new comic is addressing the Sith’s questionable loyalty to the Empire.
When the Emperor hired the Sith assassin Ochi of Bestoon to eliminate Vader, things didn’t go as planned. Darth Vader beat Ochi and turned him into his own personal servant, joining him on adventures and going into harm’s way whenever it was convenient. As Vader traveled to the forbidden Sith planet of Exegol, he had his first opportunity to enact revenge on the Emperor.
The comic is also set to feature a variant cover by series artist Ienco, and a “traitor of dawn” variant by Renaud. The title of the variant seems to similarly tease a betrayal in the upcoming issue. With the amount of characters currently associated with Crimson Dawn, there’s a wide selection of potential traitors.
Darth Vader comics have arguably made his eventual return to the light less dramatic, as he has solid motivations for turning on the Emperor even without Luke’s convincing. The right opportunity for him to betray Palpatine has yet to occur, as he lacks the apprentice he wanted to have in his son. Vader has also lost the support of Ochi, who has joined Crimson Dawn in their war against the Empire.
