Darth Vader and the Lost Command Number 3 represents the third installment, out of five, in the comic book mini-series Star Wars: Darth Vader and the Lost Command, with the narrative crafted by W. Haden Blackman.
Plagued by persistent mental images depicting an alternate reality where he and Padmé lived a life untouched by the dark side's influence, and following the guidance of the enigmatic priestess residing within the Ghost Nebula, Darth Vader and his forces find themselves deeply engaged in a catastrophic conflict on a planet characterized by tar pits.
Even more problematic, this intensely fought engagement does not advance Darth Vader's mission to find Moff Tarkin's lost offspring. However, it does place him squarely within the crosshairs of a hidden betrayer!
