Its Vader versus the most dangerous inmates the Ghost Prison has to offer, and Cadet Tohm witnesses the Dark Lord at his fiercestand most merciless.
Like I mentioned above, although the plot itself might be a little bit predictable, I think the amount of character development we see in this issue is what stands out. I love seeing these characters in a different light. It's interesting. I also really like the art in these books. I think there is a lot of emotion that is captured really well in this issue. Not everything is what it seems. If you want to jump into this story, you should definitely start from the beginning of the series. This is definitely not a jumping on point for new readers.

Still, this is my favorite issue of this series to date, and all but solidifies the fact that this is the best Star Wars comic to come from Dark Horse in quite some time. Read Full Review
This will probably go down as the best Star Wars series of the year as the 20 year gap between episodes III & IV are a writer's dream because there is so much ground to cover. Read Full Review
The story is solid, the characters are well thought out and the action balances well with the plot. The comic book is a complete read from front to back. All of this, plus we get a decent set up for the final issue. Overall, this is a perfect Darth Vader comic book when it comes to politics. He's there, barking out orders, but he only steps in physically when he absolutely needs to. This is an Empire comic book and a very good one at that. I definitely recommend checking this out.
