A New Hope presents Vader as a formidable villain who's not afraid to get his hands dirty—infiltrating Rebel ships in the thick of the action, getting behind the yoke of a ship to shoot down the good guys, going to-to-toe with Obi-Wan Kenobi. But, well, there's one scene that just doesn't quite fit. Remember when Vader's first on-screen Forcs choke? He wins the argument in the Death Star's boardroom against a mouthy Admiral Tagge. But then he's talked down by Grabd Moff Tarkin! What is Vafer doing taking orders from a beaurocrat? Age of Rebellion: Darth Vader explores Vader's place in the Empire's hierarchy.

But what fury burns in the heart of a SITH with such overwhelming rage when a mere Moff dares command him? And at what point does Darth Vader show them his true power?
