"You don't know the power of the Dark Side." Darth Vader has epitomized that power since he appeared in the very first draft of George Lucas' Star Wars. In this fittingly large scale interactive coffee table hardcover, the father of Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia emerges in hundreds of images of early concept sketches, rare collectibles, movie posters, script pages, and an uncut sheet of Darth Vader trading cards. In addition, Star Wars: The Complete Vader contains a generous selection of interactive artwork including lift-up flaps, envelopes, and cutouts. With its exclusive interviews and photographs from the LucasFilm archives, this is the Star Wars gift of the year.
