I’m surprised there hasn’t been more talk about Charles Soule’s Darth Vader series in this thread. I honestly think it’s one of, if not the greatest SW comic series ever made. It started off kinda slow, though still very good, but the last story-line, and the ongoing one, has been fantastic.

This series, to me at least, has really has made up for the overall blandness of the past two years of Marvel SW (both the writing and the art). I finally got around to reading Jason Aaron’s main SW series and was pretty pleased with it overall. But apart from a few good miniseries (mostly the Soule ones), there hasn’t really been too much to get excited about in the last two years IMO.

Does anyone actually know who’s going to illustrate it? They only mentioned Camuncooli as having drawn the banner, and It would be awesome if he drew the entire series, though I’m not quite sure how that would affect his work on the Vader series. I enjoyed Houser’s comic adaptation of Thrawn, but as far I know she’s only written one Poe Dameron annual as far as original SW stories go.
