"All I am surronded by is fear. And dead men." - Darth Vader When I tell y'all this man is not lying, this is easily one of the coldest quotes in all of Star Wars history.

[@MasterJack2]

this is the most badass line in all comic media.

[@bryandouglas739]

@@ancientking224 I did a spit take when I heard Rob say it! 😂

[@13kbcab]

"All Im surrounded by is fear and dead men!"

You probably have but did you notice that Nick cage is also in the comic

Unhinged

[@Jaytrocious]

Been my favorite Star Wars comic quote for years

[@shinobixa4]

MIC DROP!!😳

[@mauricebarr4035]

I would have left

[@plr985]

I still like the Vader quote from the Rebels episode twilight of the apprentice when Ezra tells him he's not afraid of him and Vader replies " Then you will die braver than most" pure savage lol

[@Sylla402]

Love that

[@FormerGovernmentHuman]

Perhaps not

[@thefrogthatknows5251]

The depth behind "Who's flying that?" "A Dead Man" is wild though. Vader is, as most Sith become, a revenant. A corpse holding not onto life, but the anger and the pain that killed him. Like Maul before him, he isn't alive, he just keeps going because he doesn't have anything left, the fire inside him is someone's else's flame, and it burns him inside out. He doesn't die because of his mask being removed, he looks at his own son, and lets all of the grief finally wash over him, lets himself mourn for the first time in decades, sees his son, and just... Drops. He is a dead man. He was always a dead man.

[@BELLAoBARTALK]

Real talk.

[@WoundedWings]

Beautiful observation

[@Oz1manndias]

Vader didn’t lose control. He just decided to stop being controlled.

[@DavidAmrod]

Leah was force sensitive in Empires Strikes Back. That is how they found injured Luke after he fought Vadar

[@tvdinner1986]

"this guy could kill us all and be home in time for corn flakes" made me giggle hard 😆

[@Turshin]

Total recall reference

[@kryogenik]

I like when Rob uses that line lol

[@rybec8500]

Can't go wrong with the corn flakes. Lol

[@UpcycleShoesKai]

Gotta admit, that's smart AF. pulling all their grenade pins

[@myaldeade]

Yea. Thats why thermal detonators don't have pins, they have activation slides

[@myaldeade]

@NoneOofyourbiznesss true, force lightning also works as well

[@SoApost]

Vader was a Stand:The World user.

[@Vamroc]

"I'm not trapped in here with all of YOU, your all trapped in here WITH ME"🤣

[@chancemeyers8502]

Pretty Much lmao

[@wallywest2038]

At least get the quote right

[@redstarlegion7009]

You outnumber me 20 to 1. That's unfortunate... for you!

[@acgamingpresents9070]

“All I’m surrounded by is fear. And dead men.” Finishing that quote won me trivia night on May 4th.

[@Marx1684]

14:35 You put, “Standing on business” & malarkey into a single sentence. Well done. 👍🏾 😂

[@Jonglohn]

Talent. Hahaha.

[@stephencirilo3515]

Darth Vader always has some great lines in the comic series, extremely confident when he talks. He's very much like Dr Doom with his replies💯

[@lonetrap]

I see some parallels between both characters

[@blairbrown4812]

And this is one of the most emotionally troubled, if not outright disturbed, men in all of galactic history.

[@takeruneverborn4740]

Dr Doom and Darth Vader are basically two sides of similar coin both tragic beings that find security in villainous acts and gaining power to be safe and even having a lost Lenore they want to bring back to life

[@stephencirilo3515]

@takeruneverborn4740 great point u made, they both do have loved ones that they miss and want back

[@wallywest2038]

Darth Vader was based on Doctor Doom.

[@Simon_Barreto]

This is the sith equivalent to the Mace Windu fight from Gendy Tartakovsky Clone Wars

[@danielland3767]

OMG YES! That's my favorite battle sequence ever I'm SW! The only thing that I actually missed as cannon fights go and the only thing that irks me about episode 3. Kitt Fisto and the rest are nerf bad, could have used more screen time no matter how powerful Palpatine was

[@givesrespect8788]

He from the shatter point book? I don't remember that enemies name was but it was a wild fight

[@marlz11]

Gennedy Tartakovsky is the one who made me like Star Wars from his miniseries. That Mace Windy short was my favorite moment in the entire series!

[@JonnyHighTyde]

Why couldn't Vader ever find love? He was looking in Alderaan Places.. I'm here all week.

[@daymenpollet4202]

More of these please.😂😂😂

I've been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meet again, at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner. Now, I am the master. Leave it to Disney to make such an iconic line make no sense, Disney and their stupid retcons 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@DeepFleeceheart]

"And be home in time for cornflakes" I'm dead

[@l0n3w01f]

The thing with Vader is that he never stopped believing that he was the chosen one (which he was). So Vader hearing that this other person is the chosen one frustrated him even more.

[@deathgun9120]

One of the best quotes and coldest moment in star wars

[@TheEbonyMystique]

They did talk about Leia being force sensitive in the books. Luke was training her for awhile. But she chose to fight through politics.

[@rignatetris4435]

yep, she had her own lightsaber and everything and was decently far into her training, before deciding to stop being a jedi and walk the path of a senator.

[@MrJonthebassist]

The Thrawn Trilogy right? Great books!

[@TheEbonyMystique]

@@MrJonthebassist yep.

[@trillination]

Vader down is such a funny sub title for this comic. Every time I hear it I imagine a comic cover with vader knocked out on the floor in some crater looking like Yamaha after he got blown up😂. A bunch of rebel soldiers pointing guns down at his unconscious body.

[@Mystery-pd6jc]

Those voices that Vader is hearing at 13:51 are lines from the prequels. Paired with the fact that he says "ghosts" I'd wager that Obi-Wan isn't talking to him, but rather that the force is echoing stuff from Vader's past.

[@NightMahar]

Do more, these are awesome and theres so much more. Wasnt a huge Star Wars fan till I fell into the comics realm.

[@edforeman92]

You got me at Darth Vader!

[@mopar_man74]

Shows that no matter how much vader tried to bury anakin to cope with all his evil deeds and misery, he will never kill him fully, anakins flair for the dramatic remained and he was a show off till the end

[@supervillainintl.6758]

Love the Vader comics. The displays of power 🤯

[@blairbrown4812]

"And since a restrained Darth Vader is bad enough, you may assume that you're going to see some seriously ratched shit."

[@shoken4421]

Bro if you see Vader coming what you have to do is RUN! don't be a hero just run!

[@JediAcolyte94]

You really need to cover more Star Wars comics Rob. KOTOR, Crimson Empire, Darth Vader and the Ghost prison, Darth Vader and the Lost Command, and the Clone Wars comics are all S tier stories that need coverage.

[@brianbaylark3889]

Why because all 13 of you guys think so?😂

@@brianbaylark3889 Because they are just that good.

[@josipmarasovic2436]

​@@brianbaylark3889becuase most of them are amazing storys not becuase of star wars but stories are great. Most of star wars fans are because of books and comics not movies

[@emwbjr]

I think it's always nice to see a a little break from the roster of the Justice League, Avengers, and X-Men. Power Rangers, Walking Dead, The Boys, Spawn, X-O Manowar, Invincible, of course here with Star Wars, those have all been really fascinating stories to see covered through different arcs. Then the extra stuff like Punisher Max, still some of my favorite Patreon stuff to go back and rewatch (Especially Barracuda and the Nick Fury request).

[@lachlanbold8319]

That line from Vader is iconic and it gives me shivers every time I see it.

[@bryangonzales4223]

YES!!! Do more Star Wars comics!

[@elybeanz4500]

The plot armor in the beginning is insane 😂😂

[@Its419games]

That "...fear and dead men." line is, easily, the greatest line, ever, in Star Wars if not in comics, period!

[@LexLio501]

I have have been waiting a long time for Rob to cover this one and finally today is the day so damn happy

[@bryandouglas739]

Yes Rob I want more Vader. Did you really have to ask that though because I think you want to do more!

[@ThatOneWogGuy]

I NEED more Star Wars content now Rob 😂❤

[@varunnathamuni5540]

This reminds me a bit of the Kessel Arc from Legends where a Vader who's only had a few months of retraining in his suit walks into a ambush of 8 Jedi and manages one way or the other to kill over half of them before the remaining bring an entire ceiling down on top of him. Even then, Vader still wasn't done fighting, and he had an amputated hand also. This man is an absolute hoss.

[@JediAcolyte94]

Ah yes the Star Wars purge comics.

[@nhizzle_]

Please do more Star Wars!!

[@iskander0725]

This whole chapter is literally just the extended cut of the Rogue Squadron scene on steroids. And I'm here for all of it.

It would be really cool to go through these new Star Wars stories.

Yes more starwars it would be a nice refresher for the channel. The Vader books by Jaden Blackman are really good.

I know it's not Marvel but Dark Horse Comic's run of General Grevious was pretty cool.

This is why VADER is the Big Bad of the Star Wars Universe and the face of the Dark Side.

[@RovalisGTO]

I love that you are covering the Vader comics and the good side of current Star Wars in general.

[@MNeilGri]

You saay there was no indication in the original movies that Laia was force sensitive, but there was. Luke was speaking with her on Nedore, and he said "the force is strong in jy family. I have my father has it. My sister has it".

[@Dr_plague9]

Yessssss Star Wars I’ve been asking and waiting for this

[@Vamroc]

Vader took the shot from Han's blaster in E5 so you can make a case for Leia's attack to fail as well

[@walterroche8192]

Damn... never thought of how Vader parallels with Doom before. Sure Doom was created first, but Vader got far better writing before Doom ever did. Still that is one helluva line he said. 🔥🔥🔥

I would love to see a fight and conversation between Vader and Apocalypse

I read Marvel and DC comics but not Star wars comics so thanks a lot for this new experience brother.

[@JediAcolyte94]

Plenty of S tier Star Wars comics. I'd recommend the KOTOR comics, Crimson Empire, Darth Vader and the Ghost prison, Darth Vader and the Lost Command, Tales of the Jedi comics, and Star Wars purge.

[@sculptmeplz]

Aweeee snap this was so unexpected and very appreciated

"What does it look like when he loses control?" 'Noooooooooooooo!' - Vader died right there.
