Marvel Comics loves a traitor in their comic books, whether that’s the X-Men or Star Wars. Though as the Star Wars event Dark Droids kicks off, it’s always worth remembering that not everything is what it seems.
Just like in X-Men #25. In the Star Wars series, The Spark has become The Scourge, a sentient life form that con possess both organic life and robotic life, and now seems to be focused on the latter, as it can possess far more at once. As we see in today’s Star Wars: Dark Droids #1.
And uses the Empire’s very own technology to spread itself amongst them all.
As Star Wars: Dark Droids switched itself into full-blown horror mode. With the greatest of threats coming from the smallest of devices.
Again and again and again.
With either massive waves of death to Imperial soldiers.
Or getting its jollies from something a little smaller and personal.
And with a penchant for monologuing.
Even the little Bee-diddly-bee-diddy-bee ones that Chewbacca once scared. Well they’re not scared now.
Surely the Rebellion would welcome such an invasion and destruction of the Empire in this fashion by the Scourge? Not necessarily. After all,
They seem to rely on droids quite a lot as well.
Especially one who knows all the protocols…
Will C-3PO become the Rebel Alliance’s greatest enemy? And how will R2-D2 manage to resist?
