“All I am surrounded by is fear. And dead men.” –Darth Vader, Star Wars: Vader Down
Star Wars: Vader Down offers a vision of Darth Vader in all his determined, menacing, Sith glory. At one point he finds himself surrounded by a small army of Rebel troopers, and when they tell him to lay down his weapon, he ignites his lightsaber, replying that he is surrounded only by “fear. And dead men.”
The scene is chilling. Like the end of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, it reminds us just how fearsome the Dark Lord of the Sith actually is. He inspires not only fear, but awe. And this scene has inspired the prizes for the 2018 Star Wars™: Destiny Regional Championships.
