The volume concludes, wrapping up the Schism Imperial arc with Vader taking the power for himself and standing against the Emperor only for his master to offer one more lesson. Vader’s return to the fold wraps up the main storyline with various epilogues catching up with other characters including Vader taking out his wrath on Ochi and the reveal that the Schism was all a bit of theater for the Emperor to toy with his apprentice.
The comic is notable for a couple of scenes featuring Sabé spending a short amount of time with both of Padme’s children. Her scene with Luke allows him to suspect her connection to his mother, but is not confirmed, and a confrontation with Leia allows us to see her concern over Leia becoming her father’s daughter. However, seeing Anakin can’t be saved (at least not by her) and his children (one of whose identities she’s worked out for herself) are on a proper paths she appears to fade back into the mist of the Star Wars Universe until she may be needed again.
