funny, though its actually a photoshop edit of an image of a costumed Vader all in white, which originated from the comic book series "Star Wars Infinities" (alternate stories that start exactly where lucas starts his films but go off in completely different directions).

If you click the link in my post, you can see the original picture, and variations, from the original discussion thread.

A scary thought:
What if Lucas had named him Garth Velcro instead?
To wit:
(wheezey sigh) The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the pastel side of the Force! (wheezey sigh)
(wheezy sigh) If you only knew the POWER of the pastel side! (wheezey sigh)
Or even:
(wheezey sigh) What is thy bidding, my Master? (wheezey sigh)

anybody remember "iMaul - The Sith Lord for the Rest of Us"? unfortunately, the site is long gone even from most caches...

I found something REALLY scary! Maybe some of that kyrillian bafflegab says that it'a a fake...in which case I find it scary enough that someone would fake something LIKE THAT...

What about glowing version of this? More tolerable? Darth Kitty isn´t sound bad, by the way.
