The shadow of Darth Vader looms large over the Star Wars galaxy, and nowhere does it reach deeper than in the mind of young Kylo Ren and the rise of the First Order!
As Marvel enters a new era of STAR WARS storytelling, the dark obsession of young Kylo Ren leads him to Mustafar! But what secrets does Fortress Vader hold for the young tyrant? And what face from the past will guide him on his quest? Next, Ren’s formative journey takes him to the home planet of his grandfather, Anakin Skywalker — where he must face Gardulla the Hutt and her guards — plus a rancor! Secrets of the past will be unearthed in the harsh sands of Mos Espa!
COLLECTING: Star Wars: The Legacy of Vader (2025) 1-6
Based in Brooklyn, New York, Charles Soule has written novels, comics, screenplays and stories of all types. Also a musician and an attorney, Soule somehow finds time to be one of the busiest writers in comics. Among his Marvel credits are Thunderbolts, She-Hulk and the landmark Death of Wolverine, as well as its immediate follow-up (Wolverines) and its eventual sequel (Return of Wolverine). Soule brought his legal expertise to the pages of Daredevil and assembled a blockbuster squad in Astonishing X-Men. Following solo series starring Darth Vader, Lando Calrissian and Poe Dameron, Soule turned his attention to the iconic rebel crew in a new volume of the flagship Star Wars title, and he was one of the select group of authors chosen to chart the unseen era of the High Republic.
Brazilian artist Luke Ross has been drawing comics since the early ’90s, proving himself an able stylist of super-hero action on titles such as X-Man, Sensational Spider-Man, Green Lantern and JSA. Ross stepped in for Mike Perkins as foil to Steve Epting on writer Ed Brubaker’s Captain America and joined a rotation of Marvel’s top artists on the thrice-monthly Amazing Spider-Man. His other Marvel credits include Secret Avengers, Dark Tower: The Gunslinger — The Little Sisters of Eluria, Star Wars: Darth Maul and Star Wars: Thrawn.
