The Blind, The Betrothed & The Betrayed

This issue is right on target
I was primed for issue 6 to be a suitable end to this arc, but assumed it would fall short of the high bar set by the action packed awesome-fest that was issue #5. Damn does it feels good to be wrong! Issue #6 was a perfect ending to the first Arc. Like any great TV show's season finale we got a few lingering questions answered and in the process get some big new ones to set up the next arc!

MEGA-ULTRA-FANTASTIC SPOILERS FOLLOW!

This is only a Test.

Gushing & Procrastination     

Before I get to my review, I wanted to get some gushing and ranting about a few things off my chest regarding Darth Vader the character and the comic in general. In the interest of time I'm going to put that off and keep it vague for no, but I will be posting a more detailed post about Darth Vader as soon as I get around to it. For now I will just leave it at this: I think the Darth Vader series so far is one of the greatest things to ever happen to Star Wars. Seriously. No, really I'm not being hyperbolic. I'll back that up at a later time, now onto the review.

     Before I get to reviewing the story just let me say that this cover is amazing. All Adi Granov's covers are amazing so far. I have six comics, representing several franchises that I love, framed as decoration in my "office" or as my wife designated it when she designed it; "the nerd room". Currently I have Star Wars #1 & the 3rd printing of Darth Vader #1 (I preferred the green for decorative purposes) as the representatives of my Star Wars Fandom. I keep wanting to take down other comics to replace them with more Vader issues. Ok, for real this time I promise I'm going to write about the issue.
