==Publisher's summary==
DEATH BY DROID! With his Force powers still out of control, Darth Vader's more powerful and vulnerable than ever before… Which makes this the perfect time for him to be BETRAYED by one of his most trusted associates (and astoundingly, it's not APHRA or OCHI)!

==Plot summary==
==Development==
On February 4, 2023, writer Greg Pak tweeted that he had just turned in the script for the issue. Raffaele Ienco stated he finished inking the comic on March 17, 2023.
==Continuity==
One of the B1-series battle droids featured within Darth Vader 36 resembles the engineer battle droids of Star Wars Legends due to its orange coloration. When asked if this was an intentional pull, thereby recanonizing the droid variant, Ienco confirmed it was not but fans were welcome to view it as such.
