The only thing that's disappointing about this news is that it means there's more of a story than Sheev handing Vader the keys and trying not to giggle.

It doesn't look good for your second-in-command to not have an actual home address/place to stay, even if they're not actually there half the time and are constantly crashing in barracks or on board ships or staying at the local Imperial/neutral bigwig's place, or even at some place built just for his visits. The Emperor does not want to be dealing with Vader's mail as well as his own, so Coruscant's right out. It's something of a dick move, but it's also a truth; Mustafar is where Darth Vader was 'born'.

The whole point is that he’s not a person, he’s a half machine half dog on a leash. He’s dragged around the galaxy to enforce the Emperor’s will, not have feelings or take vacation days.

That is loving sweet. I'm loving this Darth Vader series. Edit: Also, I'm seriously laughing at someone being pissed that Vader has a cool rear end fortress on Mustafar.

Go rewatch any of the original trilogy! See him burst in anger after snapping the neck of Captain Antiles! See him speak with sorrow when his son tries to reclaim his soul! Hell, read all the books, pre-Disney buyout, where they just deal with how broken and depressed and guilty and full of self-loating he is. Emotion is a huge loving part of Darth Vader. gently caress, he wouldn't be able to use the Dark Side without it. That poo poo feeds on emotion, especially negative emotion. Being calm, centered, focused, and detached is what it means to be a Jedi, not a Sith.

I honestly never thought of Vader having a 'home' before Rogue One (Just assumed he chilled on The Devastator or something like a space-pirate, and that was as close to a home as he had. I am also not against the idea of Vader living in a lava castle. Both of these things can co-exist. I do want to see Vader's Man-Cave, complete with Pink Floyd posters and a record player with felt speakers because 'it just sounds better, man".

"Bring my shuttle" is probably the angriest James Earl Jones ever made Vader sound and I have no idea why the special edition replaces it with him saying, "Alert my star destroyer to prepare for my arrival". I'm not sure what the change adds and I'm not sure why it was made.

site posted:literally the first time we ever see vader is him angry yelling at leia and his subordinates I'm not saying it's the only time he was ever angry, but I think when he's accusing Leia of being a traitor yelling at his stormtroopers to tear her ship apart he sounds irritated like he's had a really long and lovely day at work (confirmed by Rogue One  ) whereas in the ESB line he sounds more like he's seething.pubic works project posted:Hell loving yes.

Then it adds in a bit where it cuts to the Executor's hanger and shows Vader's shuttle arriving and it feels pretty superfluous (presumably audiences in 1980 were confused about how he got there).

Are the items at the end of Annual #4 standard designs or specific things we've seen before? Doesn't look like the Sith mask from Lando and I couldn't place the saber.
