I have to say that I am starting to prefer Charles Soule’s take on Darth Vader to Kieron Gillen’s. I think I like Charles Soule as a writer a bit better. Sure, Gillen gave us Doctor Aphra, Triple Zero, and BT-One (who I dig) but, Soule's series is a less dense and more fun to read. Soule gets that not only do we like excellent character work but we also like seeing Darth Vader do badass and menacing things.
This second arc continues a lot of the threads that Soule set up in the first arc, and even brings back a character from the prequel trilogy to act as a foil to Vader. Jocasta Nu, a Force-sensitive human female, the Jedi Master who served as the Chief Librarian of the Jedi Archives during the Clone Wars and who we see in the prequel trilogy is turned into amazing character here. She is making a desperate effort to gather and preserve whatever she can of the Jedi legacy after the purge (order 66) but Vader and the Grand Inquisitor cannot let her succeed (although, I will say, she is a powerful match for Vader). Yet, the Emperor orders Vader to keep her alive.......what knowledge does she have?
There is tons of new lore tidbits in this arc that even reference whats to come in some of the films (Rogue One, perhaps even parts of the new trilogy).
I'm loving this series. ( )
