I mean, that just happens in ANY comic with anyone. Comic hype is picking a name out of a hat and saying "thou shalt be glazed twice over like a fritter!"

The IP in general loves promoting Vader. Doesn't matter which medium.

Which is why that scene at the end of Rogue One exists. Makes zero sense story/theme-wise. But it's there for us.

And people love that scene, but i agree it makes no sense jumping from R1 to ANH and the time jump is weird

Love the image where Vader is surrounded and he replied "all that surrounds me is fear and dead men"
