Kylo Ren reflects on his horrible, awful, no-good, pained childhood in the pages of Marvel's Star Wars: Legacy of Vader #2, one that features loving family, loving friends, everything he ever wanted and more as he strives to one-up the miserable existence of his grandfather, Anakin. Plus he encounters Gardulla the Hutt and finally gets a long-overdue comeuppance.
The first Rec Room seems to have been a success. Or, rather, no one complained about it. So we've got another one this episode, with Jeff highlighting a favored LP and Matt spotlighting a cherished film. Hang out after the hot comic talk to hear what they are.
