Marvel?s last run of Darth Vader comics dug into the Sith Lord?s machinations and his attempt to earn back Emperor Palpatine?s esteem after his failure to protect the Death Star in Star Wars: Episode IV ? A New Hope. Marvel?s latest ongoing Vader comic explores his truly formative era, beginning with a slight revamp of the dark lord?s rebirth ? one which tweaks and adds depth to the infamous scene from Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. Re-envisioning these iconic moments, the comic peels back further layers of mysterious Sith tradition. His quest involves undertaking a Sith right of passage, where he ?bleeds? his first lightsaber. Traditionally, whereas Jedi used naturally occurring kyber crystals, the Sith would artificially manufacture their blade?s power source, which resulted in the crimson hue. However, Darth Vader #4 introduced a new element into the mix. As Palpatine revealed during the second phase of Vader?s training, the true path to a Sith blade was not building one, but killing a Jedi in combat. Their crystal would then ?bleed? to red, as it ?mourns? for its former master and yields to its new one.
