Revan was both Light and Dark, Jedi and Sith. He found balance in the both the Light and the Dark Side of the Force. As a Jedi Knight, he learned how to use the Dark without letting it consume him, and as the Dark Lord, he learned how to use the Light without letting it weaken him. He found wisdom in compassion, and strength in mercy. He eventually transcended both the Jedi and the Sith, viewing them as dogmatic and narrow minded. Ultimately, Revan found that his true power came from embracing both the Light and the Dark, and asserted that only the foolish or woefully ignorant believe that either side is inherently superior to the other.
Too many people in the Fandom give Luminara hate, say she's a sh** teacher, and call her various obscene things, because Barriss broke character and turned into a dark side corrupted terrorist, which unless I'm mistaken is only in Canon.
(those people should read The Approaching Storm)
But nobody says the same things about the Masters of other fallen Jedi.
The same crappy treatment is never towards Yoda for Dooku, nor Dooku for Komari Vosa, nor Qui-Gon for Xanatos, nor Obi-Wan for Anakin.
Nor Luke for Ben Solo, and however many other fallen students he has, nor Tholme for Quinlan, nor Quinlan for Aayla.
Nor Ky Narec for Ventress, nor Mace for Depa, nor Arca Jeth for Ulic Qel-Droma, nor Vodo Siosk-Baas for Exar Kun.
Nor An'ya Kuro for Aurra Sing & A'sharad Hett/Darth Krayt.
Nor whoever it was for Freedon Nadd, nor the various masters of Revan & Malak for them.
I’m not saying that Jar Jar is a Sith Lord… but… he WAS the Senator (or Senator-in-place-of-Padme) who voted to give emergency powers to Palpatine… a Sith Lord… so… y’know…
Dark Lord of the Sith focuses on the early days of Darth Vader. How he met the Inquisitors, the building of his Mustafar palace, and more importantly how Anakin Skywalker still haunts him.
Darth Vader is my favourite Star Wars character, and these comics didn’t change that. It was very entertaining to see Vader adjust to his new way of life. At this point in the Star Wars timeline Vader has just lost everything and its interesting to see the struggle between Darth Vader and Anakin Skywalker. The struggle between serving his new Master and bringing Padme back. During this time Vader is still being the badass bad guy he always is.
The artwork is phenomenal, especially considering The Empire’s colour scheme is mainly dull colours. So much detail went into different worlds visited and each species we meet. Giuseppe Camuncoli did an amazing job.
Any Star Wars fan will enjoy this comic series. It will not let you down.
Here's a shocker. I never grew up with Star Wars. Obviously i know the characters, names, lore, terminology and general info of the series, but for one reason or another, i never watched the original or prequel trilogy (first film i saw was The Force Awakens). Cause of this, i've never drawn any Star Wars characters since i'm not technically a fan. But for Inktober i thought Darth Vader would be fun to try and draw
