Darth Vader finds comfort in one Jedi's memory.
Warning! Spoilers ahead for Darth Vader #37!Darth Vader's hatred for the Jedi is near absolute, but in the latest issue of Marvel's Darth Vader ongoing, it is the memory of one individual Jedi which ever-so-briefly seems to tug Vader back to the Light: the first Jedi he ever met, the man responsible for having him trained in the ways of the Force, Master Qui-Gon Jinn.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Darth Vader #37 – by Greg Pak and Raffaele Ienco – finds the Sith Lord still recovering after encountering a Fermata Cage, which disrupted Vader's otherwise unwavering command of the Force. The appearance of Qui-Gon Jinn, and Vader's continued reverence toward his memory, remind readers that Darth Vader was once a Jedi, and perhaps the key to regaining full control of his abilities lie in the teachings of his original masters.
Qui-Gon Jinn: the One Jedi of Value Vader destroyed Arex's old master, and to Vader the Jedi are worthy of little more than disdain for their self-imposed limitations. With his flagship, the Executor, overrun by the Droid Uprising, Darth Vader's adherence to Sith dogma is put to the test. Unable to use the Force to mend the machinery which controls the ship-wide droid shutdown failsafe, Vader relents to Arex's advice and remembered the words of the Jedi.
The Light Side interlude in Darth Vader #37 is brief, as Vader's memories of Qui-Gon quickly slip into those of Obi-Wan Kenobi, serenity slipping into untethered rage, which Vader unleashes upon the material world. However, this brief interlude of peace for the agonized fallen Jedi confirms that Qui-Gon Jinn, unique among the members of his former Order, is remembered with fondness, and furthermore, respect by the Dark Lord of the Sith.
Qui-Gon epitomized what Anakin Skywalker once believed the Jedi to be – a standard the rest of the Order failed to live up to in Darth Vader's eyes. The Jedi Master's lessons gave meaning to Anakin's existence, setting the example of what a Jedi could, should, and must be. Vader's memories of Qui-Gon Jinn vindicate the belief Luke Skywalker would come to hold: that there was still good inside Darth Vader.
