Gone Horribly Right | |
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_1994ba0b | comment |
Gone Horribly Right: Palpatine stranding a crippled Vader on Mustafar and forbidding him from using the Force to escape was an attempt to remind him of what a "true" Sith is supposed to be. It leads to Vader taking the first opportunity to try and find out Palpatine's secrets, as a true Sith apprentice would. | |

Pay Evil unto Evil | |
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_1d18887f | comment |
Pay Evil unto Evil: In Issue #6, Palpatine punishes Vader for going against his orders by shocking him, Force crushing much of his armor and his prosthetics, and then dumping him on Mustafar to repair himself without the Force. While there may be some pity for Vader considering his wavering morality, that was a recent development for a mass murderer with decades of countless atrocities to his name. | |

Ironic Echo: In Issue #19, Valance confronts Ochi about Vader using him and the Revengers as bait, with Ochi snarking "You're working for Darth Vader. What did you expect?". A little while later, Vader throws Ochi into the resulting firefight with the others to act as further bait, with Valance repeating the line to mock him. | |

Uncertain Doom: It's left ambiguous as to whether or not the former Handmaidens, along with Olié, Tonra, and Typho, were among the Amidalan forces massacred by Vader and the Death Troopers at Polis Massa. Sabé eventually emerges and becomes Vader's dubious ally/lieutenant. The other four Handmaidens all turn up in Issue #28 to determine what she is up to. | |

Unfortunately for them, he manages to kill the monster and escape the trap. Later, Vader lets the Amidalans know where he's going, so that they'll all gather for a mass attack and allow him to finish them off. | |

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_38bf28e3 | comment |
Engineered Public Confession: In Issue #32, this is how Sabé deals with Jul Tambor — she tricks him into believing that Vader has set up camp in a village full of Skakoan refugees, which he proceeds to bomb to try and earn his species' loyalty by killing Vader in a show of force. It's only after he's gloated about this in a transmission to Sabé that she reveals that the village was actually empty, and the refugees have been listening in on the whole thing. This ruins Jul's reputation, destroying his movement and turning him into a powerless fugitive. | |

Foregone Conclusion | |
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_3bc88a7f | comment |
Foregone Conclusion: Though Vader learns the circumstances of Luke's birth, he never learns that Padmé also gave birth to a girl, Leia, as well, a fact he will not discover until his duel with Luke in Return of the Jedi. Vader's rebellion against the Emperor will obviously fail, as he's still serving Palpatine in ROTJ. Ochi will survive everything thrown at him until he kills Rey's parents as revealed in The Rise of Skywalker. Considering how the original trilogy turns out with no involvement from her whatsoever, it's clear that Sabé's tenure under Darth Vader won't last forever and that she'll either die or leave the services of Vader at some point. | |

Then he dumps Vader on Mustafar and leaves him to be hunted by a Sith Assassin. For failing in her part to torment Vader during the Into the Fire arc, Sly Moore is demoted from being part of Palpatine's inner circle to just another bureaucratic flunky.

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_5b168317 | comment |
Recycled Plot: One of the B-plots in the Legends novel series Coruscant Nights also featured Captain Typho investigating the death of Padmé on Mustafar, though he mostly did so alone in the novel, instead of being part of a large group of Padmé's former associates. And like the Amidalans, Typho came to the conclusion that Padmé and Anakin were ambushed and murdered by Darth Vader, not realizing Anakin is Vader. | |

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_5ca80293 | comment |
Pragmatic Villainy: Palpatine's actions imply this is the case for him being generally nicer to Vader in the new canon than in Legends. When Vader steps out of line, he's perfectly happy to brutally torture him and leave him crippled on Mustafar and hunted by an assassin to force him to get back in line with being a proper Sith or die. In addition, as Luke had now been discovered, Vader is far more expendable than he once was. | |

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_643618e5 | comment |
Replacement Goldfish: Vader projects his failure to save his mother and Padmé into saving Sabé when she's in danger. Issue #32 reveals that Anakin/Vader envisions Sabé freely remaining in his service as an acceptance of what he is, the way he wishes that first Padmé and then Luke could have. Though Sabé does remain, her reasons are more complicated. | |

Unwitting Pawn: At the end of Issue #14, Vader forces Sly Moore to attend the auction for Han Solo on his behalf supposedly so she can bring Han to him as bait for Luke. In actuality, it's just an excuse to put her in the same room as all the other people he plans to kill (though she ultimately survives). In Issue #21, Vader reveals that he's been aware of Ochi's service to Crimson Dawn all along, and was playing ignorant in order to use Ochi to lead him to higher-up members of the organization. | |

Took a Level in Jerkass | |
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_8cb1a369 | comment |
Took a Level in Jerkass: Padmé, painting herself as a bitter ghost to haunt Vader for his sins. Subverted in that she's actually Sabé, who is somewhat more cynical than Padmé. Darth Sidious, believe it or not. He was never remotely a good person to begin with but in past Darth Vader works, he was much more lenient with Vader, only scolding him and demoting him at the worst, and on some occasions, even praising Vader for going behind his back as being the way of the Sith. And the one time he assaulted Vader, it was only in retaliation for Vader attacking him first in a fit of emotional rage over Padme's death. However, by this point, he needs very little provocation to torture and maim Vader for going against his orders, bringing Palpatine's characterization much closer to his original Legends incarnation. Justified as this is more due to the fact that this instance of going behind Sidious' back had nothing to do with being a Sith or helping the empire at all. It was because he could sense that Vader was beginning to waiver in his devotion to the dark side and Sith, as revisiting his past brought up the reasons why Vader even joined Palpatine in the first place and Sidious sensed Vader being "weakened" by sentiment. Not only that but now that Luke is revealed and is a potential Superior Successor, Vader's value as an apprentice has greatly diminished, a point he is more than happy to imply. | |

The Bus Came Back: Four of the former handmaidens who were with Padmé when Anakin originally met her, along with one who was in her service just before she secretly married, return and have banded back together to avenge her. The Amidalans also include Ric Olie, the Queen's pilot in The Phantom Menace, and Gregar Typho, her former bodyguard in Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. Sly Moore finally makes a reappearance in canon after the Disney buyout, her last canonical appearance being in Revenge of the Sith. She is sent to Mustafar to oversee Vader's torture and keep Ochi in line, showing she is deeply involved in Palpatine's Dark Side activities like in Legends. Anakin's childhood friends Kitster and Wald show up in Issue #23, living on a colony of freed slaves. | |

Retcon: The Rise of Skywalker implied that Palpatine only started building the Final Order armada after being resurrected. Issue #11, however, shows that several hundred of the ships had already been built by the timeframe immediately following The Empire Strikes Back. However, the fact that Palpatine's ships aren't ready is justified not only by the sheer quantity of them, but the fact that the miniaturized Death Star tech that the First Order perfected by the time of The Last Jedi wouldn't be ready for decades. | |

Ink-Suit Actor | |
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_b8dbbc07 | comment |
Ink-Suit Actor: Sabé's depiction in this comic is based off an older Keira Knightley, her original actor in The Phantom Menace. ZED-6-7 even remarks on the physical differences between her and Padmé's original actor, Natalie Portman. | |

Metaphorically True: The Amidalans believe that Vader killed Padmé and Anakin on Mustafar, which is true from a certain point of view. | |

In Issue #2, Sabé demands that Vader's droid help her bury her men that Vader and his troopers just killed. Vader makes him do it not out of respect for Sabé, but only to peeve the droid for being annoying. | |

She-Fu: When Vader brings Sabé before Palpatine but leaves her to face off against him by herself, she uses such moves to fight off a pair of Red Guards and maneuver Palpatine into having to Force-lightning his own Guards. | |

Internal Reveal | |
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_c5ccf60f | comment |
Internal Reveal: Darth Vader learns what happened to Padmé after his duel with Obi-Wan on Mustafar, namely that Kenobi took her to Polis Massa where she gave birth and died, then took his newborn son into hiding on Tatooine. Issue 20 has Sabé learn for the first time that Padmé gave birth to a son sired by Anakin before she died, and her son is now the Rebel hero Luke Skywalker. Sabé remains unknowing that Padmé had twins. Like Obi-Wan had felt the annihilation of Alderaan through the Force, Vader had experienced the same. It is implied to have been internally haunting Vader since. | |

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_cc4d190a | comment |
Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: When confronted by the Summa-Verminoth, Vader ultimately uses the Force to make it submit to his will. In Issue #11, when Vader uses the tamed Summa-Verminoth as an eldritch mount to threaten the Emperor… an unimpressed Palpatine casually uses the Force to make the creature crush itself to death with its own tentacles, despite Vader’s own efforts to stop him. | |

Cruel Mercy | |
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_e19e68 | comment |
Cruel Mercy: Vader finds what he needs without needing to damage Padmé's tomb, and leaves Ric Olié and the former Handmaidens alive (albeit nonfatally injuring the former, and after massacring all the other troops with them), if only to finish them and the rest of their forces later. | |

Call-Forward | |
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_e3c36782 | comment |
Call-Forward: The Into the Fire arc has numerous nods towards The Rise of Skywalker — Vader is hunted by the Sith cultist Ochi of Bestoon (who will eventually kill Rey's parents), encounters the Eye of Webbish Bog (which appears in the official novelization of the movie), and eventually heads to Exegol. The Schism Imperial arc features a young Enric Pryde, who will one day serve as The Dragon to the resurrected Palpatine in Rise of Skywalker, and he's already displaying the blind devotion to the Empire that he'll still have decades later. | |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished | |
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2020) (Comic Book) / int_eb8f64a6 | comment |
No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: In Issue #38, Admiral Corleque ignores protocol and doesn't destroy the Executor when its droids are compromised by the Scourge and rebel, because Admiral Piett once saved his life in a previous battle. This buys the time Vader needs to destroy the droids and retake control of the ship, but also gives the Scourge the opportunity to spread to Corleque's ship, at which point Piett doesn't return the favor and follows protocol. | |

In Issue #12, despite Vader's rebellion against him, Sidious still accepts him back as his apprentice rather easily (against the advice of Amedda) and he even completely restores Vader (once again). After Vader is restored and is asking for orders, the Emperor simply tells him to decide for himself as a Sith Lord should. | |

Enemy Civil War: An arc starting in the last panels of Issue #41 features the Schism Imperial, a splinter faction led by Sly Moore composed of officials who have grown disgusted by the Empire's corruption and Palpatine's petty cruelties, and plot to overthrow him, eventually recruiting Vader as well. Palpatine knows all about it, and is using it as another test for Vader. | |

After Vader is restored and is asking for orders, the Emperor simply tells him to decide for himself as a Sith Lord should. A zigzagged example. In the same issue, while discussing about Vader, Sidious reassures Mas Amedda and Sly Moore that he is beyond Vader's reach but at the same time, Palpatine mocks them to be unworthy of Vader's attention. | |
