Issue #1- Set literally minutes after the end of RotS. Vader leaves on his very first mission for Palpatine(ie. to kill Jedi Kirak Infil'a, and create a red kyber crystal for his own Sith lightsaber.)

Issue #6- Set a matter of days after issue #1. Vader returns after successfully completing his first mission. His original armor is stated to be newly constructed, and the Empire itself is stated to still be in its infancy.

Issue #13- The intro page(along with Palpatine himself) explicitly state that it has been 3 years since the Empire was formed.

I did not know that. That's pretty cool the let us know these things.

BTW is that a new Inquisitor with the long white hair? He looks pretty badass, kinda looks like Rahm Kota.

Quick question.

How do we know there is a 3 year gap between issue and #7 and #13?

As for the Jedi, I hope it's Eeth Koth as we don't know his true fate as of yet.

Don’t think it’s koth, he was confirmed to have survived the purge

Wasn’t confirmed*

Where?

In a Darth Vader issue of a few months ago we saw a list of the Jedi who survived Order 66. Koth wasn’t one of them

Did we see the complete list?

Yea I don't think the list was complete. Was Kanan on the list?

Nope admittedly he was not on that list. The Jedi there were: Kayce Beradun, Yoda, Ahsoka Tano, Quinlan Vos, Kirak Infila, other two unreadable names. Still I think that if Eeth were going to be relevant again as Vader’s enemy they would have listed him there

Now that I think about it, that list was about high priority targets. Maybe Caleb, being barely a padawan, was considered a threat to the empire like these Jedi knights and masters listed

Kenobi should have been on that list along with Jocasta Nu.

Ok then

No, it was just a partial list -- gave a few Jedi names as Easter Eggs.

Jocasta was on the list. Kenobi wasn't, though.

But again, it was only a partial list.

Yeah, that Inquisitor is new. He was never shown until this issue, and hasn't even been given an official title/designation yet.

My prediction: he was introduced solely as a fodder character for the unnamed Jedi to kill.

I wonder if this series will introduce the 2nd through 4th Inquisitors?

Assuming the Grand Inquisitor was #1.

It's quite annoying that still the GI has been the only interesting Inquisitor.

Technically the Jedi could kill 2 out of those 3 Inquisitors because we know Ahsoka kills the Sixth Brother iirc.

Does anybody find it odd some of the Inquisitors carry their lightsabers on their back rather than their hip? It don't seem practical for drawing purposes.

Darth Vader #14
