Darth Vader (2017) comic
Era: Immediately after Revenge of the Sith.
Taking place right after the infamous “NOOO” from Darth Vader, the comic bearing the Dark Lord’s name is one of the best to date. What makes it even more intriguing, are it’s connections to The Last Jedi.
The Barash Vow
The Barash Vow story arc might explain why Luke Skywalker walked away from it all, leaving the galaxy in complete Darkness.
According to such vow: The Barash vow was an oath taken by Jedi who completely refrained from all activities related to the Jedi Order as a form of penitence, disengaging from anything but the Force itself. From the founding of the Order to its doom, over fourteen thousand Jedi pursued Barash.

Sound familiar? Luke Skywalker, according to Han Solo in The Force Awakens, said that Luke felt responsible for the fall of his Jedi Order. The Barash vow could explain why he went into exile, like Jedi Master Kirak Infil’a and Grand Master Yoda before him.
Also, Jocasta Nu, the annoying Librarian Jedi Master from Attack of the Clones, is alive and well, surviving Order 66. Nu’s now created and hidden away a plethora of Holocrons, containing secrets of Jedi Order, which she is guided by the Force to construct.
Her fate is clear, one that is due to end brutally at the hands of Darth Vader, but she is going out in style.
Luke Skywalker is sure to find these secrets of the Force at some point, some that we may very well see in The Last Jedi.
