StarWars.com has recently shared a preview of Star Wars #6, showing a mysterious woman whose only goal is to seemingly end Luke's life. This woman was said to have been previously hunted by Darth Vader himself, and it looks like she plans to take revenge.
As the woman watches Luke drown, she talks about how Vader and his inquisitors chased her all across the galaxy because she "had a touch of the Force" and might have been a Jedi someday.
As she says goodbye to Luke, hoping that he'd die a slow death, R2-D2 saves the day. The trusty droid managed to pull his master out of the water just in time and zaps him to the chest to revive him. You can check out the pages below!
This sixth issue will reveal that Luke's trials have only just begun and that his duel against Vader is only just the tip of the iceberg. Meanwhile, the Sith Lord is on a search for his long-lost son.
