Notes
- In Issue #1, the medical droid crushed by Darth Vader and Order 66 won't be counted as they took place during Revenge of The Sith.
- In Issue #5, Darth Vader kills Darth Sidious in a duel, but this won't be counted as it was only a dream.
- In Issue #17, three starkillers fire at five cities and completely destroy them and King Lee-Char says that "billions" are being killed, but it's never mentioned how many were there. These include Dac City, Zeran Town, and three other unknown cities.
- In Issue #24, it's mentioned that squads four and six were killed by Mustafarians on their lava fleas, but it's unknown how many are in each squad.
- Used this page on the Star Wars Wiki for the amounts of Stormtroopers in each squad.
- In Issue #25, none of the deaths in Darth Vader's dream will be counted since they weren't real.
