Synopsis:
This book collects together the following comic stories
-
What Sin
Loyalty?
Trooper TK-622 is proud to do his duty in the
service of the emperor, but he suspects that that
may not be the case for every member of the battle
station's crew. Strange "accidents" and
equipment malfunctions point to the presence of a
saboteur, but can the trooper prove it before the
station goes into action above Yavin?
Occurs during the Battle of Yavin.
-
The Savage
Heart
Vader alone.
Vader the undefeated.
Vader the savage.
After the destruction of the Death Star, Darth Vader
attempts to make it to an Imperial safe haven in his
crippled TIE fighter, only to crash land in a savage
wilderness. Forced to make his way on foot, attacked
by ferocious native carnivores, Vader shucks off the
restraints of Imperial order and Sith schemes and
embraces his raw, wild power.
Occurs immediately after the Battle of Yavin.

To The Last
Man
He may have washed-out as a pilot at the
Imperial Academy, but Lt. Janek Sunber has found a
new home in the infantry. Hoping for a post on a
world where he could see some action against the
Rebels, he instead finds himself on the jungle world
of Maridun as part of a regiment overseeing the
construction of a new base. But just when he’s
resigned himself to a long, uneventful tour of duty,
things heat up. The alien natives are restless, and
on the hunt for human skulls! Sunber is about to
learn one of the truths about the infantry: all
service is sacrifice, and in the infantry that
sacrifice is usually in blood!
Imperial Lt. Janek Sunber wanted to see action, and
now his wish has come true, in spades! Sunber's
infantry regiment on the jungle world of Maridun is
cut off from the rest of the Empire. Their
communications have been destroyed, and their way
out of the jungle is blocked by thousands of hostile
native Amanin. Hopelessly out-numbered, they must
choose between combat or surrender, but either
decision may mean death!
Thousands of angry alien Amanin versus less than
sixty Imperial troops. So much for being "the
glue that holds the galaxy together."
The Imperials are doomed, but newly promoted Captain
Janek Sunber is determined that they will sell their
lives dearly. If only some of his fellow officers
exhibited the same courage, they might have a
chance. But is it bravery, or foolhardiness that
drives Sunber? And, if they all die, who will tell
the story of their sacrifice? Who will record the
glory of their final stand?
Occurs shortly after the Battle of Yavin.

Target: Vader
Having failed to locate the Rebels’ new base
after the destruction of the Death Star, Vader sets
out to redeem himself by strong-arming his
underworld contacts for information about the
Alliance. But other deeds from Vader’s past return
to haunt him as a group of aliens attempt to kill
the Sith Lord as revenge for a slaughter he
perpetrated on their homeworld.
Fighting vengeful aliens is all in a day’s work.
The real challenge for Vader is coming to terms with
the man he once was, and the "monster" he
has become.
Occurs shortly after the Battle of Yavin.
