Publisher's summary[]

YOUR HUMBLE SERVANT VADER! DARTH VADER may be the most feared man in the galaxy. But to the proud Grand Moffs of THE EMPIRE, he's just the Emperor's apprentice – below them in the hierarchy. But what fury burns in the heart of a SITH with such overwhelming rage when a mere Moff dares command him? And at what point does Darth Vader show them his true power?

Plot summary[]

Emperor Palpatine rules the galaxy with his mighty and mysterious apprentice--Darth
Vader--at his side. Vader has slaughtered many Jedi and brought entire star systems to

Notes and references[]

↑ ^1.0 ^1.1 Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion - Darth Vader (2019) #1 on Marvel Comics' official website (backup link)
↑ The chestplate of Vader's armor in Age of Rebellion - Darth Vader 1 is the same as its appearance in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. Therefore Age of Rebellion - Darth Vader 1 takes place after Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith, as that features his previous chestplate, but before his next chestplate appears in Star Wars (2015) 1. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary places the construction of Fortress Vader, which Darth Vader (2017) 25 takes place immediately after, forty-six years before the Starkiller Incident, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY. As Star Wars: Galactic Atlas also dates Darth Vader (2015) 4 to 0 ABY, and Star Wars 1 takes place before it, the latest that Age of Rebellion - Darth Vader 1 can be set is that year, meaning that it takes place between 12 BBY and 0 ABY.
