The Rebellion begins
Some ok action scenes but definitely has the feel of a 2 part film. It feels quite slow paced without an awful lot actually happening. Saving up all the real action for the finale.

Short story by C.S. Forester, set in the early years of Hornblower's career and in which he foils a plot to stir up rebellion in Ireland.

As a short story, this is a snack rather than a meal in effect.

Set after A New Hope but before The Empire Strikes Back, this collection details the plot arc how the Rebellion came to consist largely of Mon Calamari (Admiral Ackbar species) capital ships, saving Vader only to cameo in the very last panel.
  
Third solo entry/story arc in Marvel's new Daert Vader line of stories, which see's Vader returning to the planet of Shu-torun, where he had previously installed a puppet ruler, to deal with a rebellion (small r) on that planet - a rebellion that has nothing at all to do with the Rebellion (capital R).

Having read this, it almost seems like the planet itself is more-or-less a stand in for Mustafar, complete with boiling lakes of lava and a character falling into such (sound familar at all?). Vader also seemingly has completely forgotten about the news Boba Fett brought him previously re. Luke Skywalker, as there's not a single mention of him at all in these pages. There's also nothing like the panels in Vader down, where he single-handedly takes on an entire platoon (and wins).

In short, the story-arc itself is a little forgettable, with no real connection to the films, and with no panels showing just why Vader is so feared.
