Maybe. From I've gleaned from the buzz feed, the Vader comics try too hard.
I can't say I agree with that.  Some people always have to complain.  The Vader comics were the bright spots in the new canon.,... Vader as the unstoppable force of nature we all heard about but never got to see.
     But I was talking about the old EU comics.

I will concede that there is potential that what most people focus on is the over-hyped shark jumps. Like the idea that Vader's castle was an attempt to resurrect Padme, I was ok with. But where TF do you find a "dark side architect"? That's what I mean by try too hard.

Spoilers for those who care.............................


"INHALE"


After coming back from a successful mission Palpatine tells Vader he needs a planet to call his own...After all he is The Dark Lord of the Sith and Palpatines Voice.  But in Palpy fashion he lists Tattoine and Naboo...knowing he's twisting a knife.  But Vader requests Mustafar.  Palps is kind of confused but is like whatever and says "Sure...here is the Imperial Architects finest.  Oh and here is a gift."  It was the Helmet of Lord Momin, one of the many Dark Side artifacts Palpatine obtained over the years.  He tells Vader the History of Momin as a Sith who used the Dark Side to create "art".  Vader asks how he knows all this....as Palpy walks away he says "The Helmet told me."
                The Spirit of Momin was attached to the helmet and could speak and could convince others to put on the helmet and he could use their body. He tried to take vader but Vader resisted.  He promised Vader a great fortress that could tap into the nexus of the Force in that area and Pierce the veil of time.  So vader allowed momin to take over members of the Architect crew.  An amusing series of panels showed Vader killing each person he took over when the fortress would crumble (and that one sank into the swamp....eh..lava).  After 5 attempts the one we saw in RO was built and while Vader was distracted Momin utilized the tower to open the Veil and he brought himself forward from the Old Republic and merged.  Fight...Vader wins (not without effort...Momin was after all and Old Sith) and Vader hears Padme but the Veil closes.   Papa Sheev I'm didn't know how this would play out..but he knew Momin would test Vader in some way.

I've been having oodles of fun making Imperial rank bars out of aluminum and those nifty switch lenses. Took me a bit but finally hunted down the right ones for the Rebels and made a few. Fun to make, but even cooler to wear.

“You think you know the depths of corruption that plague the Jedi?” Saso hissed. “I’ve seen it, I’ve experienced it, I even embody it. Every breath I take is an affront to their lofty ideals and idle Force worship… and so they seek to exterminate me.” He looked deep into Barriss Offee’s eyes, “they were not successful in purging me from the galaxy, and neither will you be.”

I usually hate crossguard. But this one is more thoughtful than those we've seen so far.

I rather like it myself.  Of course I like crossguard sabers anyway.  What dont you like if I may ask?   I'm still curious after 5 years because nearly all my fellow longsword users who are star wars fans loved it.

Like the idea.
And from a practical point of view a bit safer than the current crossguards.  Grin

Really though you have to try to hit yourself with quillions on a sword....the normal Crossguard saber is not as dangerous as it seems.

It's not a question of hitting yourself with it. It's more about, what's the purpose? On Ren's lightsaber it probably can't protect the hand of the user. Though i'm not sure since those are vents and not a real crossguard per se.
If the crossguards are emitters, it probably means that a saber Can cut through the emitters defeating the purpose of protecting the hand.
But really. It's all about the look. I don't like the look of crossguard lightsabers.
