Star Wars detail hidden within Darth Vader No. 25
By Callum Gunn
Darth Vader No. 25 has a very subtle and hidden clue for Star Wars fans to find and work out what it could mean.
The outstanding run of Darth Vader Star Wars comics has come to an end. Darth Vader No. 25 has left a lot of fans happy at how things played out, but also sad because there will be no more. A true sign of how good this particular series of comics is.
There was a huge amount to take away from Darth Vader No. 25. Most notably the reveal of who Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader’s real father is. Which looks to have been officially revealed, although that is up for debate.

Matt Martin was the one to point out to fans via Twitter, by saying how surprised he was that nobody had yet picked up on the detail. It wasn’t too long after that when fans started noticing the detail he was referring to and theories as to what it could be started to emerge.
There’s a very subtle thing on one panel of Vader #25 that I haven’t seen anyone discussing yet...

P.S. I’m pretty sure it’s in there but I haven’t seen the final final version so maybe it’s not? It probably is though. Good luck. Good speculating. No, I’m not going to tell you.

Martin confirmed that it has nothing to do with Star Wars: Episode IX and Charles Soule also confirmed it has nothing to do with Naboo. But there is plenty of possibilities to what it could be.
This, from Vader #25, does indeed mean something. It’s not Naboo, but it’s cool. You’ll see. https://t.co/GI56xk2Kfw

Definitely 100% nothing to do with Ep9.

It’s a very subtle detail in the comic panel and you can easily see why a lot of people missed it at first. However, now that it has been pointed out we can’t take our eyes away from it and speculating as to what it could possibly be.
Boba Fett, or just a Mandalorian in general, is probably the leading speculation right now. A lot of fans believe it could be something to do with the famous bounty hunter. Especially with the upcoming, The Mandalorian live-action TV series coming up some fans believe this is a nod to that.
However, we also have the idea it could be a nod to Raven. Some fans have even pointed out it appears to resemble R2-D2 in the panel.
It’s a nice puzzle for fans to work out. If we are ever going to find out what it is unclear. Right now everyone is keeping tight-lipped and leaving us to speculate. All that is known for sure is it has nothing to do with Star Wars: Episode IX and nothing to do with Naboo.
