* TheMentallyDisturbed: The nurse, a classic sufferer of de Clerambaut Syndrome, also known as Erotomania, characterised by an obsessive infatuation with a person one barely knows. Sufferers of the disorder often convince themselves that the object of their obsession returns their feelings and little gestures they make are their way of secretly conveying their love to them. However people with de Clerambaaut are often a danger to the target of their infatuation, whom they believe are taunting them by pretending not to have any feelings towards them. Given that the nurse's obsession is Darth Vader, her delusion is more of a danger to her than to him!

* DramaticIrony: There's another reason for why Darth Vader [[TheMourningAfter was always going to turn down the nurse's affections]].

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Issue #2 displays the downside of Vader's constant use of YouHaveFailedMe. An Imperial Officer who had just finished wiping out a rebel base, killing or capturing almost every rebel there, losing none of his own men or TIE fighters in the process, and leaving the base intact enough that the Empire would be able to pull valuable data from the computers. A total victory for the Empire. The only slight blemish was that a Rebel spy escaped with some intel on a strategically-important Imperial factory, which wasn't all that valuable on its own because the rebels still did not know where the factory was located, and the intel would not provide the location. Upon learning that Vader was coming to pick up the Rebel spy who had gotten away, Tylux goes to absolutely insane lengths to capture the spy so that Vader won't kill him for his failure. The end result is that he completely destroys his ship and ends up killing a lot of his men in the process. It goes to show that leaving your commanders afraid for their lives if they commit even a single screw-up will lead to them acting out of fear, rather than what makes the most sense tactically.

* HeroicBSOD: The hotshot rebel Pilot in #4 eventually loses his composure when Vader wipes out his squad and fails to take a potentially lethal shot at Vader's TIE. And his fleeing the battle only leads the Empire back to the Rebel Base...

* IgnoredEnamoredUnderling: The nurse who develops a crush on Vader.

** The nurse from Issue 3 who falls in love with Vader, a man who kills his own subordinates over [[BadBoss the pettiest possible grievances]], tries to confess her love by ''sneaking into his quarters'' while he has his armor off, the time when he feels most vulnerable -- note the Imperial officer who practically ''panics'' when he realizes he's just walked in on Vader with his helmet off in ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack''. No points for guessing how Vader responds to the nurse's confession.

* AmbiguousDisorder: It's very easy to interpret Tylux as having some kind of PTSD, considering the insane lengths he goes to in order to capture a single rebel spy with information that wasn't all that valuable on its own out of fear of having to admit to Darth Vader that he allowed a single Rebel spy to escape in an operation that was otherwise a beyond-resounding success.

* YouHaveFailedMe: Commander Tylux is so desperate to avoid disappointing Vader, he orders his crew to perform increasingly dangerous feats in pursuit of a band of Rebels.

* LovingAShadow: A nurse who probably isn't all that stable to begin with becomes infatuated with Vader and starts to fantasize about him and her getting together. Everything she believes about him is nothing more than fantasy based on what she believes him to be. Interestingly, she is right about some important things about him but at the same time becomes so delusional that she can't separate reality from fantasy. When she finally confesses her feelings to him, he promptly kills her and calls for her body to be taken away. Interestingly, Vader kills her quickly with a simple stab with his lightsaber. His expression was one of indifference with perhaps a twinge of sadness. She probably reminded Vader of some unpleasant things and he probably felt that she just wasn't worth his rage but only pity.
* MercyKill: How Vader killed the StalkerWithACrush nurse when she intruded on him in his quarters unmasked and confessed her love for him. It's a mercy kill because he did it quickly and and painlessly with a quick stab through the chest. Keep in mind that Vader has killed people in horrible and painful ways for less. When two stormtroopers saw him accidentally without the helmet, he telekineticaly lifted them and then twisted their heads around backwards and that was just for accidentally seeing him without the helmet. Here, the Nurse intruded on him while in meditation without his helmet and then confessed to loving him. The look on his face when he does it is one of indifference or perhaps melancholy. It's reasonable to assume that the nurse reminded him of things he doesn't like to think about and he could also most likely sense her mind and emotions with the force, realizing that she was both mentally disturbed and being completely honest. He may have felt a rare moment of pity and simply put her down as opposed to slaughtering her.

** For a more benevolent example, in issue #1, Darth Vader slays a Kaiju that had driven an entire planetary civilization into hiding in the rubble. Vader does not really care as it distracted him from repairs on his TIE, damaged in the middle of a space battle.

A five-issue miniseries set in the ''Franchise/StarWars'' universe released in 2019.

* MonsterFangirl: In Issue 3, in stark contrast to other Imperials, an unnamed nurse stationed aboard the Death Star is ''infatuated'' with Vader, to the point of having romantic fantasies about him.

* TakeThatAudience: Many have interpreted Issue #3 as a satire of [[PortmanteauCoupleName Reylo]] [[note]]the pairing of Rey and Kylo Ren in which Kylo is [[DracoInLeatherPants seen in an idealized manner]] similar to how the nurse sees Vader[[/note]], and of media fans in general who're willing to brush aside the sins of characters they consider attractive.

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Tylux in issue 3. While trying to capture a Rebel Spy, he drives the ship into an Asteroid field, damaging it. Then, he sends all of his TIE Fighters down to the planet where the Rebel Spy had hidden out, where the hostile weather destroyed most of them. Then, he drove the ship through a massive Exogorth in an attempt to not let the Rebel escape, which caused the creatures that live inside the Exogorth to latch onto the ship and tear it apart, causing multiple systems failures. By this time, the Rebel Fleet was able to arrive and finish off the already mostly destroyed Star Destroyer.
