Fantastic job to everyone who worked on this issue. The detail in his eyes watching the flames of his destruction are so impressive. Vader’s helmet looks shiny, tangible, and real. The detail in Darth Vader’s suit, from his torn armor to the Valath skin thrown over his back, helped elevate Vader to a new level of fear.Īt the bottom of page 7, Curiel’s colors make the sunrise genuinely appear bright and real. Now, as much as Soule should be commended for his creativity, ingenuity, and masterful storytelling the art team of Camuncoli, Orlandini, and Curiel also need to be applauded for their fantastic work. After the second reading, it became easy to see that Soule viewed himself as Tarkin. Readers can see the time, preparation, and thought Soule put into concocting ways to take down the galaxies worst and most ruthless of all villains.
The schemes he created to hurt, distract, provoke, and cripple the Sith Lord were impressive. However, Soule did a fantastic job dueling out respect for Governor Tarkin. Tarkin began the hunt with 20 men, and gradually Vader picked them off. Tarkin was a skilled hunter in his youth.
It also turns out, Darth Vader did some research on Tarkin and learned of his past. Why? No one is left in the galaxy who can even come close to standing in Lord Vader’s way. Readers find out that Vader wants Tarkin to try to kill him. If you recall from the past story arc, Tarkin owed a debt to Darth Vader, and it was time for him to collect. How could you be more afraid of this Sith Lord? Let’s find out! WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD!! Readers will leave this issue with a new respect for Tarkin and a more profound fear of Darth Vader. DARTH VADER #18 written by Charles Soule, layouts by Giuseppe Camuncoli, finishes by Daniele Orlandini, colors by David Curiel, and letters by Joe Caramagna hits shelves this week as Soule gives us a glimpse of the greatest game of all.
