Star Wars: Vader Down Clay Mann Connecting Cover Variants

Everyone knows that Star Wars #1 was a sales phenomenon for Marvel.  It sold over one million copies and remains the top selling comic book in the 21st century.  It did not hurt that Star Wars comic enthusiasts had 78 variant covers to select from and many collections have way more than one copy of this comic because of this.  But did you know that the second best selling modern Star Wars comic is the one-shot Vader Down #1 with reported sales of over 450,000 copies?  Vader Down had a mere 45 variant covers which means there is more cover artwork than there are pages inside the comic!

One of the variant covers for Vader Down #1 is by Clay Mann.  This cover, when connected to his covers for the other 5 parts of this event, form one panoramic image of Darth Vader flanked by our heroes on one side and his villainous cohorts on the other.
