Diamond has it listed as shipping for this week, though it lists it incorrectly as Darklighter part 4 (can't blame them- even Dark Horse's website still lists WSL as being #14).
Star Wars: Empire #13
By: Jeremy Barlow, Tomas Giorello
Cover Artist: David Michael Beck
Genre: Science-Fiction, Star Wars
This issue delivers a rare view of the days of the Rebellion from the perspective of a soldier of the Empire -- specifically that of a Stormtrooper who is transferred to the newly commissioned Death Star! Trooper TK-622 is proud to do his duty in the service of the emperor, but he suspects that that may not be the case for every member of the battle station's crew. Strange "accidents" and equipment malfunctions point to the presence of a saboteur, but can the trooper prove it before the station goes into action above Yavin?
Pub. Date: December 2003
Format: Full color, 32 pages
Price: $2.99

I'd say it was IG-88A, but that was different Death Star.

lol- that'd be a great idea to follow up on for a future Empire issue -"What Sin The DS2?"

Could it be Obi-Wan Kenobi, and the gang?

That was my initial thought- but I don't see how he'd have to prove their existence, since it was pretty much being broadcast around the trooper squads in the films. Also the description seems to imply this happens while en route to Yavin, and by then the Falcon had already split and Kenobi had become a dust swifter.

I quite liked this one- Imperial POV's are always interesting, and I liked the Ralltiir aspect of things, as well as the new point of view of the trench run.
Put this one up there with Darklighter and Roons Sewell as the best of the Empire arcs thus far.

i'm not sure this is an 'arc'... more or less a one-shot, unless they focus on flashbacks or other troopers at this point.
another case of Droids Gone Wild!
so was the culprit behind the plot an actual member of the rebel alliance, or rather someone who was a rebel in spirit, and did what he could from within... trying to eliminate key imperials that got within his 'zone'

Your right- it's not an arc; I should have said stories.
The way the guy was talking, I get the impression he was a true Rebel and not just an Imperial from Ralltiir seeking revenge.

I can post one, but not until later in the weekend at the earliest, but I'll gladly defer to someone else in the meantime ::)

Meh. Nothing special, just more filler in between issues of
Darklighter
.
Man, I can't wait until Ron Marz takes over, then we might actually get a bit of an ongoing series instead of random issues that jump all over the place and have nothing to do with one another....

Yeah, I'm really liking the anthology nature of Empire...though I wouldn't mind a few ongoing story arcs, I'd still like to have these random stories interspersed between.

This was a solid issue, although I wish it was the end of Darklighter instead...

Still gotta wait 2 more issues for Darklighter, since #14 is a Vader story.
