Real parenting situations interspersed with hilarious Star Wars references and excellent puns make this comic a joy. For instance, "Use the fork, Luke."

This one sticks out because it was given as a gift from a friend with a note written inside. I think all books given as a gift should have a note from the giver. It's a simple, comic per page book about Darth Vader and a young Luke Skywalker. It's wonderfully awkward and a must read for any Star ... Read More »

If you are a Star Wars fan and are looking for a good laugh, check out this book by Jeffrey Brown. It’s got short one-page comic book clips showing scenarios of what Darth Vader would be like as a father raising his 4-year-old son, Luke. So funny! I actually laughed out loud – and I am not really a Star Wars fan. I think a fan would appreciate it even more. Enjoyable and a quick read! Sequel alert: Vader’s Little Princess (submitted by DS)
SO many puns and nerdy references, this was good for a laugh!
This book is hilarious! Vader's Little Princess is also really funny, if you liked this one.
I love this one! If you liked this one, read Vader's Little Princess, same author.
I like it but too bad its a boy...
I like jeffrey brown's books.
they're really funny.
Cute cartoon book for parents of young children.
Jeffrey Brown’s - Darth Vader and Son, clearly mislabelled as an Adult – Graphic Novel & Comic. It should have been rated as Juvenile. Hilarious; should be rated for children but teens and adults will find it funny too. Doctor-at-Bass! T. A.
This is so funny. Parenting is the real danger in Vader's life here, and it is fraught with peril.
My only complaint is that this is more for parents than kids.
