Notes and references[]
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Star Wars Adventures: Tales From Vader's Castle #5 (of 5) on Amazon.com (backup link)
- ↑ Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle 5 ends with Darth Vader imprisoning Vaneé, and as shown in Star Wars Adventures: Shadow of Vader's Castle, he doesn't get released until after the end of the Galactic Civil War. As he appears in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas places in 0 BBY, Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle 5 must take place some time after 0 BBY. Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle takes place immediately before Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle, meaning that Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle 5 takes place after 0 BBY. As Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle features Darth Vader, who dies in 4 ABY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas, then this series must take place some time between 0 BBY and 4 ABY.
- ↑ The frame story takes place shortly after the construction of Fortress Vader. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary dates the construction forty-six years prior to Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY. Therefore Fortress Vader was constructed in 12 BBY and Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle 5 takes place around the same year.
