    It's no easy to task to add nuance and character to a villain that has long since been dead, while also placing shackles on a creative team that they can only work with said character during a specific time in his life. Luckily, Marvel found the right creators for the job as Greg Pak, Adam Gorham, and Paul Fry are able to weave an interesting look at Vader while planting some interesting seeds for the future.

    Star Wars: Darth Vader #45 delivers a new part to the Schism Imperial storyline as Pryde's loyalty to the Empire and Darth Vader is questioned by the other members. To put it nicely, this comic is underwhelming due to not only having little to no action, but the characters and their writing feel very juvenile. The problem isn't Pryde being a believer in Darth Vader, it's how he's written that's the problem and that extends to the rest of the Schism Imperial characters. On top of that, the comic wastes the journey to Tython and nothing memorable or extraordinary happens there until the end. Thankfully, the next issue looks like it will be more interesting.
