Late last year, Marvel published the coloring book Color Your Own Star Wars. Marvel released another Color Your Own Star Wars in September, this time for Darth Vader. Like the previous book, this book contains 120 pages with 59 pages of artwork to be colored and measures 7 1/4" x 11". One side of the page is blank and the pages are perforated so they can be removed.
The pages are full sized pin-ups of Darth Vader take from the comics. The cover is the same artwork from the standard Darth Vader (2015) #1 issue, with half of the art uncolored.
As a comic book collector, these are interesting because of the comic artwork used inside. I believe these books are overpriced at the $9.99 retail price and they can be found cheaper if you look around. You are basically paying for 59 black and white pages of artwork that were already published elsewhere. Two full color comics at $3.99 each costs $7.98 which seems like a more reasonable price for these coloring books. Regardless, they must sell well enough at $9.99 because Marvel is releasing Color Your Own Star Wars: Han Solo in May 2018.
