From writer Greg Pak, interior artist Raffaele Ienco and cover artist Rahzzah comes Darth Vader #26, landing Wednesday 24th August and bringing us the almost unbelievable image of Darth Vader riding a podracer, much like he did in his childhood years on Tatooine.

Anakin Skywalker once raced for freedom. Now, Darth Vader will race for revenge.

In Marvel’s Star Wars: Darth Vader #26, the Sith Lord looks to finally capture Governor Tauntaza, an Imperial working secretly with Crimson Dawn. Vader has tracked Tauntaza to a fortress concealed by an artificial sandstorm, bringing up memories from his former life — and skills long buried. In StarWars.com’s exclusive preview of the issue, Vader finds himself mounting a podracer once again and driving head first into the protective waves of sand. “I’m the only human who can do it,” he once said of podracing. It’s still true.
