Force Material Episode LXXIX: Mustafar From The Madding Crowd

We explore the history of Mustafar and Fortress Vader, from Ralph McQuarrie to The Rise of Skywalker.

Did you know The Rise of Skywalker’s first scene opens on the volcanic planet of Mustafar? Did you know the Sith Wayfinder was apparently found by Kylo Ren in the ruins of Darth Vader’s Castle? 

We didn’t — until we read the TROS Visual Dictionary. And that inspired us to get into the details behind Fortress Vader in this week's episode.
