Darth Vader and Son by Jeffrey
Brown explores, What if Darth Vader actively raised his son? What if “I am your father” was just a
stern admonishment from an annoyed dad? In this hilarious and sweet comic
reimagining, Darth Vader is a dad like any other—except with all the baggage of
being the Dark Lord of the Sith. Celebrated artist Jeffrey Brown’s delightful
illustrations give classic Star Wars moments a fresh twist, showing that the
trials and joys of parenting are universal, even in a galaxy far, far away. Life
lessons include lightsaber battling practice, using the Force to raid a cookie
jar, Take Your Child to Work Day on the Death Star, and the special bonding
moments shared between any father and son. Humorous and touching, Darth Vader
and Son is the perfect gift for dads of the Star Wars
generation.
