STAR WARS: LEGACY OF VADER by Charles Soule and Luke Ross hits stands this February.

Set after Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the new ongoing comic series follows Kylo Ren as he uncovers the hidden past of Darth Vader in search of his own identity.
New York, NY— October 24, 2024 — In order to let the past die, Kylo Ren has to confront it. Witness the journey he took between The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker in STAR WARS: LEGACY OF VADER, a new ongoing comic book series launching in February. Announced earlier today at StarWars.com, the series will be delivered by two of the galaxy far, far away’s most acclaimed storytellers—New York Times best-selling author Charles Soule, who penned Vader’s rise to power in his 2017 Darth Vader run, and artist Luke Ross, known for his epic work on Star Wars titles like Jango Fett, War of the Bounty Hunters, and Thrawn.

After slaying his master, Supreme Leader Snoke, Kylo Ren is now the leader of the First Order, but recent events including his murder of his father, defeat at the hands of Luke Skywalker, and a surprising connection with the mysterious Rey force him to reckon with what it truly means to be Vader’s heir. As he pursues his dark mission to bring order to the galaxy, Kylo’s madness takes him down a deadly path to discover the truth about his grandfather’s life. From Mustafar to Tattooine, these are the thrilling adventures that enabled Kylo to confront his inner turmoil and meet his destiny!

DARTH VADER’S SHADOW EXTENDS INTO THE RISE OF THE FIRST ORDER! Kylo’s dark obsession leads him to Mustafar. What secrets does Fortress Vader hold for the young tyrant? And what face from the past will guide him on his quest?

"When fans talk to me about my Star Wars work, two of my Marvel comic runs come up more than almost anything else: my 2017 run on Darth Vader with Giuseppe Camuncoli and my 2019 series The Rise of Kylo Ren with Will Sliney,” Soule told StarWars.com. “I think both of those worked so well in part because they were set in parts of the Star Wars timeline full of unanswered questions about characters the audience really loves. This new series is not just a combination of those two books, but also a chance to explore an extremely rich section of the timeline that's almost entirely open: Kylo Ren's time as Supreme Leader of the First Order between Episode VIII and Episode IX. It's one of the coolest series I've ever worked on, and I am very thrilled that I get to keep following my own path through the Star Wars galaxy with an amazing book like this."

“Charles has wanted to tell these stories for a while and we finally have the perfect opportunity,” Editor Mark Paniccia shared. “You’ll be shocked at the revelations he has in store…things you never thought you’d see from Kylo’s AND Vader’s past.

“And Luke Ross has taken his visual storytelling to a new level. The page designs are incredible and flow hand-in-hand with Kylo’s dark and tortured story."
