As I’m reading the newest Vader series, it occurred to me that he had no input into the design of his Vader armor, nor did he ever make any kind of noticeable aesthetic changes or upgrades to it.

That seems wrong to me. I’m gonna blame Lucas on not having the foresight to work that into the third film, and instead paying fanboy service at the last minute because he was running out of time to tie the third film to the fourth one. “Oh god, gotta show Vader in his costume, gotta show the Death Star, gotta get Leia to Alderaan, gotta get Luke to Tatooine...oh fuck only got three minutes of screen time to shovel all this is at the very end!!!”

Went into one of the other local shops last week(the guy that had the stroke last year) and picked up most of the Age of Republic/Age of Rebellion oneshots that came put over the last few months, and also TIE Fighter 1 and 2. I spent over $60 but man, he seemed super appreciative that I dropped that much in his store. He was super excited looking thru all his boxes(he’s very disorganized) finding the issues for me.
Still need Dooku and Jabba issues, and I don’t think Luke or Vader issues have come out yet.

Dark Horse has a new Star Wars series coming out next week. It looks to be the all ages replacement for the IDW books.

Their first release was a 500-page collection of English translations of Rebels comics from Germany.

God bless you, Dark Horse
