Star Wars: Vector Volume 2 -- Chapters 3 & 4 Written y Rob
Williams and John Ostrander; Pencils by Dustin Weaver and Jan Duursema; Inks by

Vector is an epic story with repercussions for every era and every
hero in the Star Wars galaxy. Told in four chapters, this is the
concluding volume. In Chapter Three (Rebellion Volume 4) Luke Skywalker
and Princess Leia have to deal with Vector as it crosses their paths and
changes the galaxy! On the dark surface of a desolate moon, Luke meets his first
Jedi since Obi-Wan Kenobi, only to realize too late that Celeste Morne is far
different than his fallen friend -- twisted by a Sith Talisman and enraged by
Darth Vader!
Then, over 135 years later, in the final chapter (Legacy Volume 6),
Cade Skywalker's plan to assassinate Emperor Darth Krayt is aided by a "secret
weapon" in the form of Celeste Morne -- the Jedi Knight of the Old Republic who
is in possession of, and possibly possessed by, the powerful Muur Talisman. Cade
and Celeste will change the galaxy -- for better, or for worse!
The epic Star Wars: Vector storyline spread over four thousand years
of history and crossed over four comic-book series -- Rebellion, Knights of
the Old Republic, Dark Times, and Legacy! |
