Both of those are good...I lean toward the first because Vader's hand is more visible.
The current is more clear than either suggestion, and there's no inherent problem with it to begin with.
Check out my fanfiction!Crowner's hooked. I was hoping to get a pic from Rogue One but Krennic's cloak is mostly obscuring his hand and arm that are clutching his throat after he falls down.
I'd prefer one of the suggestions simply because Darth Vader and Star Wars are so well known that nobody is likely to misunderstand the context.
Not that the current is bad. It illustrates the trope well enough and I'm not going to cry if it remains.

Absent-minded professor and Neverwinter Nights DMVotes bump; two in the green.
Be careful not to "choke" on your aspirations, Rebel Scum!
I like.
"That's right mortal. By channeling my divine rage into power, I have forged a new instrument in which to destroy you.""Vader's assault on the Rebels hit a choke point."
"Give me your lunch money, rebel scum."
I've hooked a crowner in the caption repair thread; locking this one.
