HARD TO FIND. RARE and OUT OF PRINT.

The empty throne of the once-mighty Empire is the goal of Carnor Jax, who seeks to position himself as the new Dark Lord, now that the last of Emperor Palpatine’s clones have been destroyed. But out in the galaxy, laying low on some backwater planet, is a former colleague, Kir Kanos, now an enemy of the Empire, who Jax knows is a threat to his ambition. Kir Kanos is depicted as the classic knight-errant, the valiant paladin with a shady past and the scars to prove it, struggling against enormous odds. He and Jax were once members of the elite Imperial Guard; the personal bodyguards of the emperor. But that was a long time ago and far, far away…

In addition to the impressive cover paintings by Dave Dorman, this comic features previously unknown events with Darth Vader, as Kir Kanos remembers his tortured past.

PLUS: Star Wars Crimson Empire Handbook
offers fans detailed entries on the characters and locations from the six-issue limited series Star Wars: Crimson Empire, an engrossing tale of events that occur after those depicted in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Learn the history of the ambitious Carnor Jax, a former member of the fallen Emperor Palpatine’s Imperial Guard who now seeks the throne, and the noble Kir Kanos, something of a knight errant who is Jax’s greatest opposition. And, just to add some spice to the mix, Dave Dorman’s gorgeous painted covers make this series a must-have!

Featuring lavish full color artwork printed on high quality paper!
