This ongoing canon series explores Kylo Ren’s (Ben Solo’s) turbulent path as Supreme Leader of the First Order, set in 34 ABY between The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker. Issue #10 delves into psychological horror as Kylo embarks on a perilous quest through the uncharted, labyrinthine caverns beneath Vader’s foreboding castle on Mustafar. The volcanic planet’s dark underbelly amplifies the Force’s echoes, forcing the young tyrant to confront grotesque, hallucinatory visions of his fractured past—hauntings tied to his lineage, failures, and the shadow of Darth Vader himself. As sanity frays at the edges, Kylo must navigate this abyss to uncover hidden secrets, but the depths threaten to consume him entirely. Expect intense introspection, monstrous apparitions, and ties to broader First Order machinations, building on prior arcs involving the Knights of Ren and Vader’s lingering legacy.
Legacy of Vader (full title: Star Wars: The Legacy of Vader) picks up post-Last Jedi, focusing on Kylo’s obsessive quest to embody Vader’s dark side while grappling with his Solo heritage. Previous issues have featured Knights of Ren intrigue, Force visions, and Mustafar’s lore.
