When he's being choked? I've never seen anyone engage saber combat while being force gripped.
Anyways, he's just getting used to his suit in RODV. In Purge, he saber rapes two Jedi Knights instantly, then force pushes a Master across the room while engaging two other Masters and one Knight in saber combat.

Good grief ppl, must you all squabble over these petty matters? I ask is it worth it? Darth Vader is the shit (excuse my language) and I believe he is able to own all of the established gauntlet. and whats the deal with Darth Bandon, he is a glorified video game boss that could not beat vader period. with or without sith troopers. Heck, Vader would kill them outright with his mind then school bandon. And maul, yes i believe he was phenominal lightsaber wielder, but Vader would still kill him.

Erm, in purge he beats a rage filled Jedi who charges to him with her hand above her head. He then tosses one out of the way, and a Jedi gets a cortosis blade and shuts his lightsabre off. He then kills four incompetent Jedi with it, then he gets his ass handed to him by the remaining three and his hand cut off.

1. Just because all the Jedi are dead, it doesn't mean that there aren't any force-sensitives left. Think about the Emperors hands. They were powerful, but not as powerful as Vader. There was still lots of potential to find a new Sith apprentice, but Vader was the best.

Yeah, just like every Sith ever. They are all looking for a more powerful apprentice. But, Sidious was not going to and did not find one. He had the whole united galaxy to choose from, but Vader was the best.

I'm talking about the beginning of the fight, right when he enters, when he kills the first two knights and tosses a master across the room, while engaging three other masters.
After that he kills one more Jedi, gets his blade shut off, snaps the girl's neck (who looked a bit too young to be a master, meh). Kills one more, get's hurt by the midget and the fat one, kills the hot headed one who betrays someone else, then gets caved in by three of them bringing down the cave...
Yeah, weird fight.

Well, he was effectively pwned by the Jedi. If the stormtroopers hadn't came in, he would have died.
But he was able to take them on with some skill.
Obi-Wan Kenobi, by Dooku.
It would be an infinity, if there were things that specifically contradicted it.

Yeah, but he couldn't do anything, he was being held in midair.
And what's stopping Vader from doing the same? Being 80% of OT Sidious grants you immense force powers.
Well, RODV does.
It takes place right after RODV. By this time he would be a bit more used to the suit.
And remember, this OT Vader has an extra 20 years of Sith training.
He had a galaxy to run. he had no time to train an apprentice from an infant, like he did with Maul.
Maybe not, but he still left most of the governing to the Moffs, the Admirals and Vader. He devoted alot of his time to the Dark Side, considering he wrote three huge Dark Side encyclopedias. And he also supervised and trained these Dark Jedi:

Sidious had plenty of time, but no one better than Vader, thanks for the list, Gamblor (and Glentract, as I take it).
And what's stopping Vader from doing the same? Being 80% of OT Sidious grants you immense force powers.
It takes place right after RODV. By this time he would be a bit more used to the suit.

Well, if he could have he would have when they fought in EU.
Uh, when?
It takes place before RODV.
According to TFN, a generally reliable site, it takes place after RODV
http://www.theforce.net/comics/darkhorse/cp_purge.asp
And (in ANH, anyways) had just got his suit fixed after getting injured by Maul.
I didn't know Tales were part of the EU Continuity. I thought they were infinities.
Okay, then none were stronger than Vader, but the point is Palpatine still never planned to keep him.
Why not though? Vader worked out perfectly for him: He would never be more powerful than Sidious, but he'll be powerful enough to mop up the remaining Jedi and inspire fear throughout the Galaxy.

I think that Joruus was more powerful than Vader.
He was powerful but not on Vader's level. He only really excelled at Battle Meditation
Except Commander Appo is in that comic. Unfortunately, he dies in ROTV, meaning the Comic Book had to have taken place first, when Appo was still alive.
Ah, I see. Well, there is the unlikely possibility that Purge takes place in RODV, after Alderaan and before Kashyyk...
Uh, that cmoci they fight in. They fight on Tatioone just before (maybe even during) ANH. Vader thinks that the Stolen Death Star Plans are there, goes there, and is attacked by Maul. He is losing but then wins by stabbing his lightsaber through his own cyborg body, which nearly kills himself.
Yeah, I think those comics are infinities. Vader would never ever return to Tatooine anyways.
