Thanks to the final issue of Legacy of Vader, it seems as though a brand-new Kylo Ren story has just been teased.<\/p>\n<p>Coming from <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/star-wars-sequel-trilogy-looks-worse-than-ever-for-1-major-reason\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Marvel&#8217;s new and canonical Legacy of Vader<\/a> series by Charles Soule and Luke Ross (set between The Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker), the final twelfth issue has just been released. Featuring a major Force vision for the corrupted Ben Solo within Darth Vader&#8217;s castle, the comics&#8217; ending teases a whole new dark adventure for Kylo Ren in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>                        Star Wars&#8217; Legacy of Vader Finale Ends On A Pretty Big Cliffhanger<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"1650\" height=\"1220\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Star Wars Teases Kylo Ren Return in Legacy of Vader #12\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/star-wars-teases-kylo-ren-return-in-legacy-of-vader-12.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/star-wars-teases-kylo-ren-return-in-legacy-of-vader-12.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Legacy of Vader #12 ends with Kylo Ren confronting the light still buried within himself, confirming he&#8217;ll never be able to fully destroy his past despite his obsessions. Following this confrontation with <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/star-wars-kylo-ren-jedi-version\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">the Jedi Knight whom Ben Solo could have become<\/a>, Kylo Ren is violently expelled from Darth Vader\u2019s secret vault on Mustafar.<\/p>\n<p>As such, the final page strongly suggests that Kylo Ren is falling toward Mustafar\u2019s lava rivers, which is obviously a very strange place to bring this new Star Wars series to a close. However, we do get a mysterious closing tag which reads: \u201cThe Reign Ends. The Fall Begins. Kylo Ren\u2026 Will Return.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On the whole, this feels like a deliberate tease that feels far bigger than a simple reminder that Kylo Ren&#8217;s story continues on-screen in The Rise of Skywalker. Instead, writer Charles Soule likely has another Kylo Ren story in the works, continuing the <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/star-wars-history-lore-kylo-ren-supreme-leader-explainer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Supreme Leader&#8217;s dark adventures before the events of Episode IX<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>                        There&#8217;s Plenty of Kylo Ren&#8217;s Journey Left For Star Wars Tell<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"825\" height=\"413\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Kylo Ren vs Tava Ren Legacy of Vader #9 Cover\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/kylo-ren-vs-tava-ren-legacy-of-vader-9-cover.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/kylo-ren-vs-tava-ren-legacy-of-vader-9-cover.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Beyond this final page tease, it&#8217;s also worth noting that Legacy of Vader did leave some narrative threads unresolved, the biggest one being how Kylo regains leadership over the Knights of Ren.<\/p>\n<p>At this point in the timeline, <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/star-wars-knights-ren-history-absence-explained\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">the Knights are being led by Tava Ren instead<\/a>, raising clear questions about how Kylo regains authority over his former warriors before the events of Rise of Skywalker. As such, it&#8217;s yet another solid piece of evidence that Soule has another Kylo Ren story in the works that has yet to be officially announced.<\/p>\n<p>It would certainly make sense if Star Wars is indeed moving forward with another Kylo Ren project. Beyond the recently concluded Legacy of Vader, Ben Solo\u2019s time as the First Order&#8217;s Supreme Leader remains largely unexplored. All in all, our fingers are definitely crossed for another dynamic tale starring one of the sequel trilogy&#8217;s most fascinating Star Wars characters.<\/p>\n<p>Star Wars: Legacy of Vader #12 is on sale now from Marvel Comics.<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"280\" height=\"420\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Adam Driver as Ben Solo Kylo Ren in Star Wars\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/adam-driver-as-ben-solo-kylo-ren-in-star-wars.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/adam-driver-as-ben-solo-kylo-ren-in-star-wars.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tDied \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tStar Wars: Episode IX- The Rise Of Skywalker<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tAlliance \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJedi, First Order<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tRace \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHuman<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Warning!
