From Comic-Con San Diego's "Cup o' Joe" panel, Marvel Comics announced an upcoming crossover event between the ongoing Star Wars and Darth Vader ongoing series, Vader Down.

The crossover event will see Darth Vader forced to face the entire might of the Rebel Alliance alone, after he crash lands on a planet. The Alliance – Including heroes Leia, Han, Luke, and Chewie – decide they cannot pass up the opportunity to rid themselves of their most fearsome foe.

The story will kick off in the oversized Star Wars: Vader Down #1, then continue in the pages of Star Wars and Darth Vader. The story will be told by writers Jason Aaron and Kieron Gillen, and artists Mike Deodato and Salvador Larroca.

Vader Down kicks off in November.
