- Title: Star Wars #25
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Jason Aaron
- Artist: Jorge Molina
Luke, Leia, Han, Chewbacca, Sana, and the rest of the Rebels aboard the stolen Imperial Star Destroyer fight for their lives against both Sgt. Kreel and his elite band of stowaway Stormtroopers and the scores of Imperial ships attempting to prevent the stolen Harbinger from smashing through the blockade of Tureen VII.
The climax of the storyline focused on both the Rebels theft of a Star Destroyer and Kreel’s Scar Squadron, Star Wars #25 is filled with quite a bit of action including Luke in a lightsaber duel with Kreel and coming across Darth Vader in space (and smartly deciding to live to fight another day rather than push his luck any further).
While Kreel and his men fail the Dark Lord of the Sith, something few do and live to tell the tale, the latest issue of Marvel’s Star Wars series doesn’t completely shut the door on this storyline as Scar Squadron is able to salvage a small victory from their defeat by taking a hostage from the doomed Star Destroyer, one that Vader knows all too well. Worth a look.
