Palpatine: "Ironic... he could save people from dying, but not himself" Anakin: *Wakes up to Palpatines rambling story ending* "Yeah sure... whatever you say, I am going now."
Palpatine: "Ironic... he could save people from dying, but not himself" Anakin: *Wakes up to Palpatines rambling story ending* "Yeah sure... whatever you say, I am going now."
What I love is Anakin/Vader imagined Obi-Wan on a blue-ish planet full of vegetation - In other words, The Sith's theory as to where his old master was hiding was the mirror opposite as to where Kenobi lived, Tatooine was the perfect place to hide Luke.
He never expected Obi Wan to be on the very same place which only brought misery and pain to Vader and what reminded him of his past, which is mostly why Kenobi went there into exile.
This is why I prefer the bleeding the crystal explanation instead of the synthetic crystals. With the synthetic crystals, it seems like there's nothing particularly special about a sith's weapon & feels like it's not as powerful as the real thing. Here, you get to see just how much raw power a sith has to pour into their crystal to bend it to their will, & it makes the whole process more organic & more rooted in the force & the symbiosis between the light side & the dark.
The dark siders bend the force to their will, which is why they use synthetic crystals, but if you are gonna use the force to also change the color of the crystal with the light side, then there's nothing organic about it and fucks up the whole idea.
AdraicStarks If you think that the synthetic crystals were "nothing special" then you obviously haven't delved that deeply into the original canon. Darth Maul - for example - created the four synthetic (which, by the way, means "man made" hence there was nothing impersonal about them) that powered his twin blades by focusing his hatred of the Jedi into the crystals as he controlled their formation from their inception to their completion - going days without food, water, or sleep - until they were perfect.
The most powerful moment, to me, is when he takes of his mask in front of Obi-Wan. He basically kills himself for Obi-Wan (even though he can breath a few moments without it in the original trilogy, he probably wasn't able to just after Mustafar.) to prove to his old Master he turned back to the light and is still his apprentice. Even though it never happened, it's still a very powerful moment to me.
Melanie Blake I liked the moment too, but I wouldn't say he killed himself. I took it as he was putting himself in a vulnerable position in order to show his surrender to the light side and his penance to Obi wan and the Jedi order. By taking off the mask he is no longer the big bad Darth Vader, he is the weezing, scarred, and vulnerable Rogue Jedi formerly known as Anakin Skywalker. So yes I agree ,the scene was powerful, but I don't think Anakin was trying to kill himself in front of Obi-Wan.
Jeremy Keitt also I think more than anything the revert of his eyes from sith yellow to his anakin blue would show to obi wan that he truly has seen the error of his ways and turned back to the light side of the force
He should've shown Palpatine his red light saber, to fool him, and then strike him down in a swift attack. Then he could've either ruled alone or followed his light dream he had.
trycoldman23 If he still planned on betraying Palpatine, the crystal wouldn't have turned red. You'd have to submit to the dark side and the pain and agony it brings you completely in order to change the crystal, meaning that he must be loyal to the Sith if he wants the crystal to turn red. Besides, Palpatine isn't that dumb, he can sense what Darth Vader was thinking.
anakin is the greatest hole in the star wars cannon I love star wars... but he has never made sense and any time they try to add to his story it gets worse. Yuup, canon Jedi are weird and evil. But Anakin should absolutely be able to see that his turning is what killed padme. That he was the destruction of all he loved. This "dream" sequence shows even more that he knows what he did, that he recognizes the evil of it all, that he himself is the source of his pain, why would he turn away from being shown the path of redemption?
@@Darthquackius To me the dark side of the force has always come with a sort of possession. It takes hold and changes you into someone else. It's why there's a change of name, maybe it's the soul of the old sith lords themselves passing into the form of someone who falls to the dark side, making room for them. The dark side changes people, they aren't themselves and they have new goals and ambitions. I think where there isn't the hole in the canon that you say it is, is if you understand that this vision where he becomes Anakin again shows him clearly regretting everything he did, including his part in killing Padme. He DOES understand all that, but the dark side clouds it. This comic shows him confronting the choice of redemption and choosing darkness even still. He's no longer driven by his former goals, he seeks power. I don't see it as such a hole in the canon. You're welcome to think that, of course, just wanted to give you a perspective that isn't the same as yours.
I think Obi-wan would have forgiven him, but not necessarily allowed Vader to know about his children yet. Not without completely earning Obi-wan's trust back, at any rate.
The "vision", which you bring to life expertly, is the most moving part of this comic. We are led to believe that this (or something close to it) is what genuinely COULD HAVE BEEN, if the Anakin persona had sufficiently reasserted itself in this moment and unseated the still raw and immature "Vader" persona. But Vader is already distancing himself from Anakin, to escape the impossibly painful fact that it was he who killed Padmé. The visionary scene where he throws himself at Obi-Wan's mercy, removing the helmet and fully revealing himself as the sad ruin of the man he once was, is very powerful. But then the vision bursts in the exact moment Obi-Wan actually adresses him as "Anakin"! He cannot bear to identify with Anakin anymore; he HAS to be Vader. Compare his almost angry reaction when Luke later points out that "you were once Anakin Skywalker, my father". He instantly and aggressively insists that the very name "has no meaning for me anymore." He can never go there ... or so he thinks.
TwistedGamersHQ Meh I think it was cool. It showed us how lightside was calling to him just as like darkside was calling to him when he was Anakin only this time Vader denied it and wanted to stay in darkside. In the end he hated himself too much to alow himself to return lightside
I feel as though this finally proves that Vader isn't "80%" of Palatines power, as he was able to best him here, i honestly feel as though Vader knows he's stronger than Sidious, but won't act on his feelings because he has no reason to. This comic issue is amazing in general and the "bleeding" of the kyber crystal is so much cooler than it being synthetic.
snek The vision may well have come to pass if he chose that path, but he used the light and the dark. I believe with the conflict within him he could never beat Sidious using only the dark side.
@Filippo Capaccioli Nah. It's still a vision. There is no way he could beat Palpatine with his current condition. Plus, Obi-Wan here is located in another planet when he is supposed to be on Tatooine.
The task will not be easy and test his abilities with the force. A test for Vader. Meanwhile nowadays everyone can bleed crystals like it’s fingerpainting hour in kindergarten apparently
I like how the comics are better than the new movies and this guy bringing it to life and doing all this extra narration and stuff makes it 10 times better
Luke would've trained in the force under yoda to the point that Vader and Palp could feel him through the force. He would have been found and annihilated.
Luke would have become the galaxy's most powerful backward talking swamp hermit with no idea how to pilot a goddamn thing and is in desprate need of a toothbrush.
The way the high ground situation would of failed is if Anakin would think before taking action. He could have force pulled Obiwan, thrown is lightsaber at obiwan and even if obiwan were to block it, I am sure it would cause Obiwan to move back a little giving Anakin more room to land after he jumps. Anakin could have force choked, unless he was to tired to use the force with great abilities. There's a lot of things Anakin could have done in that situation.
"he let out a scream as though he were being born a thousand times" fkin what? of all the ways you could describe this bad ass moment, you relate it to a 1000 babies screaming?
Because being born is a painful process, not only for the mother, but also for the baby. Imagine being squished through a tiny hole head first, pretty painful, right? That's actually why newborn babies are crying. They aren't crying because they're sad, hungry or want attention, newborn babies are crying because they're in pain. They've literally been tortured into this world. Now isn't that a nice way to start off an individual's life? No, it isn't.
do a what if theory where Darth Vader follows the vision he had in this comic and goes to fight the emperor. We can have some Jedi, maybe yoda or obi-wan sense Anakin is back on the light side so they go to coruscant to meet him or something just to make it more interesting. Like if you agree
Now 100% fan of the bringing it to life but I think you did a really good job of incorporating both! Loved this and especially you adding sounds and voices from the movies.
This is by far of the coolest youtube videos I’ve ever seen and if you do plan to make more bring to life/narration do them just like this one. You just earned a sub
Coming back to this I'm kind of interested by how it's semi implied that Vader could theoretically beat Palpatine. Perhaps that's just confined to the force vision but the crystal prophecised it nonetheless
They've already gone over this, her crystals turned white because she took them from a fallen sith and drained it from it's corrupted dark side influence that it had.
This Canon cominc finally prove to some people that Vader can defeat Palpatine. The vision show to Vader the future if he choose the light, but he refuse, he lose everything to became who he is now, so he want go on on the path of the dark.
Yeahhhhhh...no. Sorry but there is no way in any hell whatsoever that the vision was a true one of a possible future, more likely to be one that *wanted* to see, not what would actually happen. Vader would not not be able to defeat Sidious in his current state. He possibly wouldn't have even beaten Master Infil'a if he hadn't started to kill all those innocent people to distract the Jedi, and I think that we can agree that Sidious is far more powerful than Infil'a.
Glaydor51 no, sorry but you need to read again the comic. After the vision Vader refuse what he saw. So it is clear that he don't saw what he want. It a vision of the future if he choose the light path. But at this moment he is not interested to return to the light and kill Palpatine because he lost everything for starts this new path in the dark. So he refuse that future because there is nothing for him. The prove the phrase that he say after the vision. Vader can beat Palpatine, he is destined to do that. Palpatine is clear more powerful than In'fila, but the principal characteristic of Vader is that he can grow a lot in power in a short period of time, even during a duel. His emotions can permit to him to grow a lot and in this case bested even Palpatine.
So you honestly think that Vader in that beaten up crappy state could just waltz up to Sidious and kill him? Even after he pretty much lost a fair fight against Infil'a, who you have just accepted is nowhere near as powerful as Sidious?
Glaydor51 the duel Vs infil'a was not fair. Before he fight against infil'a Vader was already damaged, he doesn't have a true lightsaber, and he lost the first duel only because his leg collapse by itself. Seem that you need to read comics with more attention. Then I repeat, the characteristic of Vader is to grow in power in very short time, even during a duel, if you mix this with fact that he is the chosen one and he is destined to kill Sidious, yes he can kill him. The vision is clear, you can accept it, or continue to find excuses because you are a Palpatine Fanboy, without offense.
Filippo Capaccioli Just to clarify, I was only talking about the second duel with Infil'a. The one where Vader had to take advantage of the Jedi's need to protect people in order to be victorious. Also, I haven't ever said that Vader could *never* defeat Sidious, just that it wouldn't be able to happen straight away as shown in the vision. His suit is a complete mess in the vision, he would be torn apart in seconds by Sidious if he went against him like that.
This isn't the first time Tarken met Vader, if you watch closely Tarken is present on the star destroyer in episode 3. Great vid tho! Keep it up! Love from Canada 🇨🇦
Hip Hop Gamer - Tarkin wasn't immediately made aware of Vader being Anakin, but he figured it out on his own during the Tarkin novel, which takes place about 5 years after this.
Have you heard the theory that R2-D2 is the one telling the story of Star Wars? As he's in ever single movie and that his memories weren't wiped like c3po? I heard this from George Lucas I believe, not gonna swear to that but that's what I remember.
Granted, this issue came out years ago, so there’d be no way that they could’ve done it. But after watching the series finale of Clone Wars, I’m wondering if it would’ve been more impactful if it was revealed that the crystal of Vader’s lightsaber was bled from one of Ahsoka’s that he found on that desolate planet.
Sam Ross crap, forgot about that rule. I suppose technicalities are out of the question? I mean he found the lightsaber on the ground then just TOOK it. Wouldn’t that fulfill the rule? Or it just doesn’t work that way?
Laserbeak316 Also, if you look closely, you can see that Vader’s lightsaber is clipped to his belt, so he already had his lightsaber by the time they found the wreckage.
Man I finally got back into Star Wars and this week I found your channel and seriously it’s amazing! Really makes me a bigger fan of Star Wars just because of your content!
It is said to have taking place before Vader came to the star destroyer in revenge of the Sith. Unless that's not Tarkin, but I do think it happens before that moment.
this one made me sad.. vader was so close to being anakin again and we saw a glimpse of what could have been. obi wouldnt have to die by his hand and he could have continued to train under him as well. even though i knew that it was fake, it was still sad to see that vader still had control over anakin even after showing him what couldve been.
I am so glad you mentioned this series on the final clonewars break down. The voices you do are spot on and I really felt the tension of the scene that I dont get from reading so am going to binge watch them all now. great work
What I want to know is what is the point? In Legends the only reason they made synthetic red crystals was because the planet also had some Jedi on it and didn't want to risk confrontation so instead of finding one they took the easy way out. They say a bleeding crystal connects you more to the dark side, but how? A lightsaber is still a lightsaber and it wasn't shown that a red one was way more powerful than non red one. Seems pretty much the same as lightsabers can still cut no matter what color you give and it seems to be more of a rite of passage really? If anything you'd think it would expose them more. If the sith were hiding wouldn't it make more sense to use non red crystals, if they could get it, so they wouldn't stand out. With bleeding crystals I'd understand why Jedi wouldn't touch it, but it's not like you can't use it. They just can't make one but can still steal a red lightsaber from others and use it just fine. It's not like it won't turn on because they use the lightside of the force. I don't despise the idea, it's ok, but I like the legends explanation more. Plus back then you could see a sith with a non red lightsaber and you can also see a Jedi with a red lightsaber as red crystals could be found but were extremely rare. Even Luke and Leia used one and really a color shouldn't make you evil as the color red is nothing good or evil about it. If any saber would be used for evil intent, you would think something like the Darksaber which seems to be the opposite of a lightsaber, since it is dark and it is flat and has a sharp edge, but that's not an evil blade and it was made by a Jedi and passed down to other Jedi and Sith too. To me making synthetic crystals make sense because it symbolizes the sith take the quick and easy path. Instead of finding and mining crystals, they just make their own and back then you'd at least see some Jedi use a red blade and some sith use a non red blade.
Hope you guys liked this one!!!
Thanks for watching!!!
My favourite kind of video to create :)

Star Wars Theory this was fantastic
Star Wars Theory ONE OF YOUR BEST VIDEO!! Great job!!!!
Star Wars Theory that was fantastic. You made it come to life well done
Star Wars Theory great video if you know what happened to Darth Malguis please make a video about him again great video you deserve more subscribes
What if Anakin fell asleep when Palpatine was telling him the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise
"Zzzzz.... Oh shit what did I miss?"
nowuploading 9 Vader wouldn't think so much and would be a badass sith lord
That would be a tragedy
Palpatine: "Ironic... he could save people from dying, but not himself"
Anakin: *Wakes up to Palpatines rambling story ending* "Yeah sure... whatever you say, I am going now."
Palpatine: "Ironic... he could save people from dying, but not himself"

Joshua Bellis lol, he thought obiwan was on naboob, but he was on tatooine the whole time
Alex G That planet wasn't Naboo haha
Yeah, it was naboob
even the very thought of sand is unbearable to him.
This is why I prefer the bleeding the crystal explanation instead of the synthetic crystals. With the synthetic crystals, it seems like there's nothing particularly special about a sith's weapon & feels like it's not as powerful as the real thing. Here, you get to see just how much raw power a sith has to pour into their crystal to bend it to their will, & it makes the whole process more organic & more rooted in the force & the symbiosis between the light side & the dark.
The dark siders bend the force to their will, which is why they use synthetic crystals, but if you are gonna use the force to also change the color of the crystal with the light side, then there's nothing organic about it and fucks up the whole idea.
You're an idiot.
Well it really doesn't mess anything up because, as we saw on the comics, it was difficult for Vader to make the crystal bleed.
Light siders dont need to use the force on their crystals because they already change colors for them
AdraicStarks If you think that the synthetic crystals were "nothing special" then you obviously haven't delved that deeply into the original canon. Darth Maul - for example - created the four synthetic (which, by the way, means "man made" hence there was nothing impersonal about them) that powered his twin blades by focusing his hatred of the Jedi into the crystals as he controlled their formation from their inception to their completion - going days without food, water, or sleep - until they were perfect.
Darth Vader *Literally does anything*
Palpatine: "Dew it!"
Do the dew
Mountain dew
" JUST, DEW IT. DEW IT! MAKE. YOUR DREAMS. COME TRUE. DEW IT!!! "
I like how even the Force goes, "Dude, you can make amends" but Vader's just like, "Nah, being a shit is too much fun!"
MrStevenWolfe lol ikr!
Lol ikr!
Lol ikr!
Lol ikr!
!Rki loL
I feel dumb, I watched all the movies and read almost every comic book and book and still thought Vader's vision was real.
Boy did we buy into it
Elemental Jedi that's why it's a great comic.
Elemental Jedi same lol
Noooooooooo, xD it got me deeep
Same! As I was watching this video I was like I though these comic books were cannon and not some kind of what would of been spin off lol
The most powerful moment, to me, is when he takes of his mask in front of Obi-Wan. He basically kills himself for Obi-Wan (even though he can breath a few moments without it in the original trilogy, he probably wasn't able to just after Mustafar.) to prove to his old Master he turned back to the light and is still his apprentice. Even though it never happened, it's still a very powerful moment to me.

So yes I agree ,the scene was powerful, but I don't think Anakin was trying to kill himself in front of Obi-Wan.
Melanie Blake according to new canon he doesnt have to wear the mask to survive

OFFICIAL l2 ENGLISH and wrong
Jeremy Keitt also I think more than anything the revert of his eyes from sith yellow to his anakin blue would show to obi wan that he truly has seen the error of his ways and turned back to the light side of the force
Vader to kyber crystal: did you just assume my side of the force
Dark Storm150 omg yes! Can I put this phrase on a shirt?
Demented Creations most definetly
Duckling Momo already did. It turned out great! Lol
OMG! The Force is like soooo sexist. i'm offended
DID YOU JUST ASSUME MY SIDE OF THE FORCE!?!?
He should've shown Palpatine his red light saber, to fool him, and then strike him down in a swift attack. Then he could've either ruled alone or followed his light dream he had.

You’re here too?
Killing Palpatine doesnt mean he isnt a Sith, thats how the Sith work bud, the apprentice kills the master.
Couldn’t he be a Sith, but a Sith Master and not the Apprentice? His lust for power would surly turn the saber red!
trycoldman23 He didn't have a red lightsaber...
Vader looks at the lightsaber crystal "Tell me something, Do you Bleed??? You will..."
Darth batman XD
Darth Knight
DC sucks
That's good haha
Tell me something , does an android like yourself experience fear ?
We need a fan fiction to continue on from Vaders vision when he grabbed the crystal the first time

Modustollens1 Thank you.
joe bob Thank you.
Its sad I kinda wish his dream happend
palpatine woulda prop killed him, and i doubt luke couldve beaten palpatine solo...
anakin is the greatest hole in the star wars cannon
I love star wars... but he has never made sense and any time they try to add to his story it gets worse.

Nice profile pic herr Orlok
No
Here’s a good question... what if Vader did kill the Emperor and went to make amends with Obi Won?
Um... Fulfill the prophecy as the Chosen One a lot sooner, for starters :?
LinkieLinkGameing everything would of been great
LinkieLinkGameing star wars would end like every other cheesy movie
Small Teddy The prophecy is to bring balance, not eliminate the dark side. Both must be made equal, not in favor of one or the other.
I think Obi-wan would have forgiven him, but not necessarily allowed Vader to know about his children yet. Not without completely earning Obi-wan's trust back, at any rate.
This was such a good final step. The force showing Anankin there’s still time to correct what’s been done, and Vader refusing it.
What if Vader turned back to the light When he was bleeding his crystal
Dew it
#dewit
Dewit!
Star Wars Theory PLEASE DO IT
Dynamite 60 isnt that basically what his dream was? Or was that unrealistic?
Realistically Palpatine would have murdered him if he tried fighting him.
Honestly Vader picked the side of weakness, the true side of strength would have been striking down Palpatine.
Agreed, light or dark side he couldve still made it bleed and strike down Sidious.
Probably not the only person who will say this, but a fan fic on Vader's dream would be awesome!
The "vision", which you bring to life expertly, is the most moving part of this comic.

I really liked his dream, I was hoping it was real too. Asking Obi wan for forgiveness. Vader's story is truly tragic.
This is when you're at your best. Not the other clickbait stuff. This is where the heartbeat of SWT is.
hi
I love it when you bring the comics to life I feel it is a more in-depth view of the comic then just reading it
"I find your lack of red...disturbing"
And Osha did it like so easily. Make it Make sense
Even Jedi Survivor did it better
July 2024
OSHA bleeds her crystal, instantly, because she’s mad
Yeah that was a bit odd. Barely any effort with little to no emotion.
Dude, I actually got triggered when all of that shit just were a stupid vision! :((
TwistedGamersHQ
Meh I think it was cool. It showed us how lightside was calling to him just as like darkside was calling to him when he was Anakin only this time Vader denied it and wanted to stay in darkside. In the end he hated himself too much to alow himself to return lightside
Like in the Force Awakings Kylo Rain was called to lightside

snek No I don't think so. I only think he beat him there because it was a dream, a dream about what would happen is everything went right for him
Acctualy this he beated palpatine here becouse kt was Vision, a Dream, not real life
snek The vision may well have come to pass if he chose that path, but he used the light and the dark. I believe with the conflict within him he could never beat Sidious using only the dark side.
Bob is Guilty no is true. Is what happen if he choose that path. So. He can beat Palpatine.
@Filippo Capaccioli Nah. It's still a vision. There is no way he could beat Palpatine with his current condition. Plus, Obi-Wan here is located in another planet when he is supposed to be on Tatooine.

What if Yoda took Luke to Dagobah when he was a baby?
Give up, I will not.
Until a video, this becomes.
Luke would've trained in the force under yoda to the point that Vader and Palp could feel him through the force. He would have been found and annihilated.
Luke would have become the galaxy's most powerful backward talking swamp hermit with no idea how to pilot a goddamn thing and is in desprate need of a toothbrush.
Wasn't Dagobah also a dark side hub? Could it have corrupted him over time even with Yoda watching over him?
The only person i hate the most is myself! -Darth Vader
and sandman
ohhh god they would be arch nemesis
perry neil He let his mother and Padme die! And also, I don't like sand, it's coarse, and rough, and irritating, and it gets everywhere m.
Cut my life into pieces,
This is my last resort.
WAKE MY UP! WAKE MY UP INSAND!!!
CAN'T WAKE UP! WAKE ME UP INSAND!!!
SAND ME!!!
It truly amazes me how much life you breathe into these comics and capture our attention...bravo sir bravo, your faithful subscriber
4:52 Blimey, I thought Vader's force vision is what really happened!
The Acolyte just got upset and bled a crystal. SMH
I like Stupendous Wave and all... but his video on this wasn't NEARLY as good as SWT's. Damn I love this channel.
I have 2 fan fictions. What if Obi-Wan didn't say "Hello There" in ROTS and ANH? What if the high ground failed?
Then no one would receive a friendly greeting.
The way the high ground situation would of failed is if Anakin would think before taking action. He could have force pulled Obiwan, thrown is lightsaber at obiwan and even if obiwan were to block it, I am sure it would cause Obiwan to move back a little giving Anakin more room to land after he jumps. Anakin could have force choked, unless he was to tired to use the force with great abilities. There's a lot of things Anakin could have done in that situation.
Jesus shut up about the fucking high ground
I fucking laughed at the Hayden Christiansen audio clip lmao
On the contrary, it was emotional
Same
5:41 was Sith Lord Nihilus' theme. I liked that touch.
Dude your editing is so awesome, when Vader turns the crystal red + his vision it’s so amazing.
Anakin: I reject my humanity, Obi-Wan!
wryyyy

J.D.Simple that a mother fuckin jojo reference?
Even Solo is afraid
Kono Vader Da!
Even Jar Jar is afraid!
I think that cave will become Darth Vader's castle.
The castle was located near a cliff side, presumably the place where Anakin died and Vader was born
Samantha Smith Makes sense.
It had the same little lava fall as rogue one, I think you're spot on
You're spot on. If you compare that panel with the establishing shot of Vader's castle, you will see it's the exact same spot.
Yes! The Vader comic! I'm so excited! :)
Edit: THAT WAS SO COOL!
DantheMan ikr
DantheMan ikr it was awesome! :)
DantheMan I definitely click the like button it's a great episode and you definitely bring your next comic life
it was long live darth vader
All those people complaining about the new canon way for with light sabers must feel pretty bad right now.
You can hear Vaders pain through the words he utters. It's so good or rather poetic!
"he let out a scream as though he were being born a thousand times"
fkin what? of all the ways you could describe this bad ass moment, you relate it to a 1000 babies screaming?
sorebutt1 what’s wrong with babies being born? It’s new life.
i gues you dont have children?
Baby screaming is one of, if not the worst sound ever ;)
It's fit because there he truly became Darth Vader
I was thinking something like "He let out a scream as if he were giving birth a thousand times." Now *THAT* would be a scream.
Because being born is a painful process, not only for the mother, but also for the baby. Imagine being squished through a tiny hole head first, pretty painful, right? That's actually why newborn babies are crying. They aren't crying because they're sad, hungry or want attention, newborn babies are crying because they're in pain. They've literally been tortured into this world. Now isn't that a nice way to start off an individual's life? No, it isn't.
do a what if theory where Darth Vader follows the vision he had in this comic and goes to fight the emperor. We can have some Jedi, maybe yoda or obi-wan sense Anakin is back on the light side so they go to coruscant to meet him or something just to make it more interesting.
Like if you agree
Gare Bear I agree but without other Jedi sensing him turning to the light once more. Let him be a complete Sith by having killed his master.
Gare Bear yeah it'll be cool
Assuming he would have defeated Sidious and the dream happened I'm pretty sure he was asking Obi-Wan to kill him.
Yes!!!! I've been waiting for this!! You did an amazing job on this, your videos always brighten up my day thank you so very much!!!!
I like you brining the comics to life, I enjoy you speaking as well.
Same here!
agreed
Now 100% fan of the bringing it to life but I think you did a really good job of incorporating both! Loved this and especially you adding sounds and voices from the movies.
This is by far of the coolest youtube videos I’ve ever seen and if you do plan to make more bring to life/narration do them just like this one. You just earned a sub
Yes finally I’ve been waiting for this comic
2005: "Do it"
2017: "Use it"
Dew it
What you've done... is beyond words.
You've edited like a mandalorian.
KOTOR II anyone?
Amazing job on this video! Loved the mix between your narration and the comic playing out. Well done!
They need to make a Star Wars Infinities comic where this vision actually happens.
In the end, it was hearing his old name and remembering the pain his old life had put him in that kept him from turning to the light.

I'm not into comics but I really wanna read this now
*Update 4 years later:* I've read about 200 SW comics now 🤣🤣
Ebanks Studios Same here
+Ebanks Studios Every SW:Theory Fan ever.
Ebanks Studios Same.
I've read all the Darth Vader ones so far, I really recommend it
They're amazing, there's youtube videos that show them in a slide show I would recommend reading them they're awesome
Coming back to this I'm kind of interested by how it's semi implied that Vader could theoretically beat Palpatine. Perhaps that's just confined to the force vision but the crystal prophecised it nonetheless
(Vaders first attempt to make the crystal bleed)
Crystal:Am I a joke to you?
Has a Sith ever turned to the light and turned their lightsaber from red to another color?
Not necessarily. Ahsoka's did because she is a gray jedi, and her crystals reflect her middle path
Crystals don't change colour once someone has taken them. If a lightsaber is one colour then it stays that way.
You are technically correct.
They've already gone over this, her crystals turned white because she took them from a fallen sith and drained it from it's corrupted dark side influence that it had.
Revan.
This Canon cominc finally prove to some people that Vader can defeat Palpatine. The vision show to Vader the future if he choose the light, but he refuse, he lose everything to became who he is now, so he want go on on the path of the dark.
Yeahhhhhh...no. Sorry but there is no way in any hell whatsoever that the vision was a true one of a possible future, more likely to be one that *wanted* to see, not what would actually happen. Vader would not not be able to defeat Sidious in his current state. He possibly wouldn't have even beaten Master Infil'a if he hadn't started to kill all those innocent people to distract the Jedi, and I think that we can agree that Sidious is far more powerful than Infil'a.
Glaydor51 no, sorry but you need to read again the comic. After the vision Vader refuse what he saw. So it is clear that he don't saw what he want. It a vision of the future if he choose the light path. But at this moment he is not interested to return to the light and kill Palpatine because he lost everything for starts this new path in the dark. So he refuse that future because there is nothing for him. The prove the phrase that he say after the vision. Vader can beat Palpatine, he is destined to do that. Palpatine is clear more powerful than In'fila, but the principal characteristic of Vader is that he can grow a lot in power in a short period of time, even during a duel. His emotions can permit to him to grow a lot and in this case bested even Palpatine.
So you honestly think that Vader in that beaten up crappy state could just waltz up to Sidious and kill him? Even after he pretty much lost a fair fight against Infil'a, who you have just accepted is nowhere near as powerful as Sidious?
Glaydor51 the duel Vs infil'a was not fair. Before he fight against infil'a Vader was already damaged, he doesn't have a true lightsaber, and he lost the first duel only because his leg collapse by itself. Seem that you need to read comics with more attention. Then I repeat, the characteristic of Vader is to grow in power in very short time, even during a duel, if you mix this with fact that he is the chosen one and he is destined to kill Sidious, yes he can kill him. The vision is clear, you can accept it, or continue to find excuses because you are a Palpatine Fanboy, without offense.
Filippo Capaccioli Just to clarify, I was only talking about the second duel with Infil'a. The one where Vader had to take advantage of the Jedi's need to protect people in order to be victorious. Also, I haven't ever said that Vader could *never* defeat Sidious, just that it wouldn't be able to happen straight away as shown in the vision. His suit is a complete mess in the vision, he would be torn apart in seconds by Sidious if he went against him like that.
Damn.Imagine what how much the plot would've change if his vision became reality.
Please narrate your videos exactly how you did this one. It was perfect. Def felt the emotion and bringing it to life while summarizing it smoothly.
THIS IS WHAT BLEEDING A CRYSTAL SHOULD BE LIKE!!!
Officially one of my favorite comics ever made.
This is awesome
What if Vader's vision about returning to the light happened?
Star Wars Fan he kill Palpatine like you saw. Then he ask to Obi-Wan to forgive him.
"Obi-wan, please"
That gave me chills
You are really doing a great job narrating this. I'm impressed.
I was literally just thinking when is this video coming out.
Love how Vader’s cybernetics look bare like that
Whatever you did here. 100% the way to do it thank you!
Edit: OH SNAP I FORGOT I WROTE THIS THANKS FOR THE LIKES
this makes Osha turning her lightsabre and the Acolyte show a circus
Wow. And look how easy it was for Osha. Sigh
The excuses for how she did it is entertaining
This isn't the first time Tarken met Vader, if you watch closely Tarken is present on the star destroyer in episode 3. Great vid tho! Keep it up! Love from Canada 🇨🇦
Wasn’t Tarkin one of the only ones that knew the truth behind Darth Vader? Didn’t he know he was Anakin Skywalker?
yea
Hip Hop Gamer - Tarkin wasn't immediately made aware of Vader being Anakin, but he figured it out on his own during the Tarkin novel, which takes place about 5 years after this.
That scene on the star destroyer was actually after this one.
Tarkin met Anakin Skywalker beforehands aswell, during Anakins mission to save Even Piell from the citadel.
I absolutely love how Anakin came back for a moment
Please Disney, make a Darth Vader anthology film. That would make me so happy.
isn't that what the prequels are?
@@Wolfy2821 No those are about Anakin Skywalker. I think he wants Vader in his suit movies. But, it's disney, they'd mess it up.
Damn this video was excellent. The sound effects and voice acting was on point. Loved the use of sound clips from the films!
Vader saying "My master..." at the end always gives me chills...
Have you heard the theory that R2-D2 is the one telling the story of Star Wars? As he's in ever single movie and that his memories weren't wiped like c3po? I heard this from George Lucas I believe, not gonna swear to that but that's what I remember.
Also he's kind of the biggest bad ass as well 😅.
Granted, this issue came out years ago, so there’d be no way that they could’ve done it.
But after watching the series finale of Clone Wars, I’m wondering if it would’ve been more impactful if it was revealed that the crystal of Vader’s lightsaber was bled from one of Ahsoka’s that he found on that desolate planet.
But that would undermine the rule of the sith, “The lightsaber of a sith is not given, it is taken.”
Sam Ross crap, forgot about that rule.
I suppose technicalities are out of the question? I mean he found the lightsaber on the ground then just TOOK it. Wouldn’t that fulfill the rule? Or it just doesn’t work that way?
@@Laserbeak316 No, it doesn't work that way. He has to best a live Jedi in combat and take their lightsaber.
Sam Ross damn, okay then. I will concede to that.
Laserbeak316 Also, if you look closely, you can see that Vader’s lightsaber is clipped to his belt, so he already had his lightsaber by the time they found the wreckage.
Are you doing the voiceovers yourself? Your Emperor is really good!
Combination was just the right amount, came out very well (and some narration cuts down on production time.. which is nice).
Man I finally got back into Star Wars and this week I found your channel and seriously it’s amazing! Really makes me a bigger fan of Star Wars just because of your content!
Tarkin doesnt know who Vader is? But he met Vader in Revenge of the Sith
Fábio Vieira You mean when he and palps were oversighting the construction of the death star? It was far later after this comic takes place
That's true, he did also know Anakin but no one would've known who he was under the armor except maybe a force sensitive.
xXx xXx yes, make sense now
It is said to have taking place before Vader came to the star destroyer in revenge of the Sith. Unless that's not Tarkin, but I do think it happens before that moment.
Takin eventually figured out who Vader was, but this was the very first time Tarkin ever saw him.
great voice acting dude
this one made me sad.. vader was so close to being anakin again and we saw a glimpse of what could have been. obi wouldnt have to die by his hand and he could have continued to train under him as well. even though i knew that it was fake, it was still sad to see that vader still had control over anakin even after showing him what couldve been.
I am so glad you mentioned this series on the final clonewars break down. The voices you do are spot on and I really felt the tension of the scene that I dont get from reading so am going to binge watch them all now. great work
You did the comic perfectly! Well done my dude
Just came here from the Acolyte 😂😂😂
What if the vision came true what would happen after Anakin and Obi-Wan meet again?
Ana Doll I’m responding very late for you but whatever I guess I’d assume they’d go get Yoda and rebuild the Jedi and all
What I want to know is what is the point? In Legends the only reason
they made synthetic red crystals was because the planet also had some
Jedi on it and didn't want to risk confrontation so instead of finding
one they took the easy way out. They say a bleeding crystal connects
you more to the dark side, but how? A lightsaber is still a lightsaber
and it wasn't shown that a red one was way more powerful than non red
one. Seems pretty much the same as lightsabers can still cut no matter
what color you give and it seems to be more of a rite of passage really?
If anything you'd think it would expose them more. If the sith were
hiding wouldn't it make more sense to use non red crystals, if they
could get it, so they wouldn't stand out. With bleeding crystals I'd
understand why Jedi wouldn't touch it, but it's not like you can't use
it. They just can't make one but can still steal a red lightsaber from
others and use it just fine. It's not like it won't turn on because they
use the lightside of the force. I don't despise the idea, it's ok, but I
like the legends explanation more. Plus back then you could see a sith
with a non red lightsaber and you can also see a Jedi with a red
lightsaber as red crystals could be found but were extremely rare. Even
Luke and Leia used one and really a color shouldn't make you evil as the
color red is nothing good or evil about it. If any saber would be used
for evil intent, you would think something like the Darksaber which
seems to be the opposite of a lightsaber, since it is dark and it is
flat and has a sharp edge, but that's not an evil blade and it was made
by a Jedi and passed down to other Jedi and Sith too.
To me
making synthetic crystals make sense because it symbolizes the sith take
the quick and easy path. Instead of finding and mining crystals, they
just make their own and back then you'd at least see some Jedi use a red
blade and some sith use a non red blade.
Dafuq?
I love how you animate the characters bringing them to life
Amazing work narrating these videos. Really love the voice over work. Man, this redemption arc would've been so awesome to see on the big screen.
Star wars theory this channel is amazing. Thank you so much. Also what are your thoughts on Obi wan Kenobi's anthology film.😀
What if Vader turned into Anakin again and killd palpatin and say sorry to Obi-Wan
RobRibRub The Gamer 4 I wish that happened
What does this mean for Kylo since his crystal is cracked?
leage150 he put too much power into it? Or this is Vader's old crystal he is using.
leage150 maybe its cracked because he couldnt use the full dark side power he was pulled by the light
Probably because it represents the conflict within him of light and dark. The crystal cracked because so did his resolve.
It's because it's an imitation. His Hate is not as pure as Vader's, his resolve is weak, his intentions irrational.
Mega Guy43 I still like Kylo, more than Rey...there's just something about him that's intriguing.
As someone who never really read any expanded material, this was fascinating. I always thought that it was as simple as finding a red crystal.
That last cackle was great. Nailed that laugh!
