Star Wars Vol 3 #28 Marvel Comics 2021 Darth Vader Luke Skywalker

Star Wars Vol 3 from Marvel Comics (2021) delivers a relentless space-spanning chase that fans have been waiting for. Written by Charles Soule, with bold art from Ramon Rosanas and a striking cover by Carlo Pagulayan, this 28-page, full-color installment puts Darth Vader on a direct collision course with his son, Luke Skywalker, turning every panel into a tense duel of wates and wills across the cosmos.

In this arc—titled “THE CHASE!”—the Sith Lord uncovers that Luke Skywalker is within striking distance, and the pursuit intensifies as Vader closes in. Readers get a rare look at the dynamic between master and apprentice as the hunter becomes the hunted, raising the stakes for both sides of the Force. Meanwhile, Leia Organa faces her own high-stakes challenge, contending with the criminal might of Crimson Dawn to reclaim her lost love, Han Solo. This interwoven storytelling creates a richer, more cinematic Star Wars experience on the page.
