It's a fight many Star Wars fans have been clamoring for and we're about to get it in the mighty Marvel manner. In November's Star Wars #74, we're going to get one slobber knocker of a fight as Chewbacca takes on Darth Vader in the match of the century. Who's gonna win? Fans are gonna have to pick up this issue when it comes out to see the result.
My money's on Darth Vader though. Because force chokes are overpowered.
Let's be honest, most of our money is going to Vader because there is no way in hell that Chewie stands a chance against Darth Vader. Sure, if Chewie got up close somehow, he could probably strip away some of that armor and make Vader uglier than he already is but his opponent has force powers and a lightsaber.
Here's the issue synopsis (via CBR):
STAR WARS #74
GREG PAK (W) • PHIL NOTO (A/C)
ACTION FIGURE VARIANT COVER BY JOHN TYLER CHRISTOPHER
STAR WARS GREATEST MOMENTS VARIANT COVER by PAULINE VOß
WOOKIEE VS. SITH!
Our three stories converge as the rebels' plan to destroy the Empire's fleet come to a head! But can LUKE really trust the grifter WARBA CALIP?
Can HAN, LEIA, and DAR CHAMPION survive a head-on battle with a STAR DESTROYER?
And what happens when CHEWBACCA takes on LORD VADER himself in hand-to-hand combat?
And the Rebellion's search for a new home...a base safe from the reach of the Empire...begins.
With Marvel ending the Star Wars ongoing comic in November, having a penultimate issue like this is one hell of a way to go out with a bang. As a fan of Greg Pak and Phil Noto, I wanted to see the two sta a bit longer but we could always get a big relaunch after this issue.
Star Wars #74 comes out this November.
