Caption: Luke is fighting Darth buying Vader in what was to have been a scuffle aboard the Rebel Blockade Runner soon after Vader's Imperials captured the Rebel ship. Luke is
wearing a kind of breath mask because Vader's troopers apparently cut through a
panel to get in, allowing the air supply to escape.
The Darth Vader costume - a grotesque breath mask and all sorts of other life
support systems, computer readout, black cape and armor-was partly inspired
by the impressive image of a Samurai warrior. George Lucas, in keeping with the
idea that Vader's whole being was to be mysterious, wanted the character to be
entirely in black.
