After being frozen in Carbonite on Cloud City, Bespin, Han Solo was collected by notorious
bounty hunter Boba Fett, ready to be taken back to Jabba the Hutt at his palace on Tatooine…
Getting Solo to Tatooine however, won’t be so easy once the rest of the Galaxy hears
about his value to Jabba…
So, lets find out what Boba Fett did immediately after collecting Han Solo, and how his actions
spark a war of the bounty hunters…
Also, make sure you stay tuned for issue 1 of this comic tomorrow, because there’s
an absolutely massive reveal involving a certain crime lord, or should I say Crime lady, which
you will not want to miss.
So Make sure you’re subscribed for that.
So the story begins on route from Bespin to the sandy world of Tatooine, aboard Boba’s
Fett’s infamous slave 1.
On board, boba states at the frozen Han, while opening up a comms line with Jabba’s right
hand man, Bib Fortuna.
Boba tells bib that he’s got Jabba’s package, and in Huttese Bib wants to make sure that
Han is alive, as the bounty originally stated.
Boba assures Bib that Han will be arriving on Tatooine alive very soon, and to make sure
Jabba has his credits ready to go, because he doesn’t need any complications…
Just as he says this however, the carbonite freezing chamber begins blaring out an alarm
tone, worrying Boba that his target might be unfreezing, and worrying Bib on the other
end of the line even more.
Boba is forced to hang up on Bib, ensuring him that he will call back, but right now
there are more pressing matters at hand.
Han is slowly unfreezing from the carbonite, and Boba needs to move quickly if he wants
to stop it.
At this point, Boba only knows one man who can fix his issue, so he immediately jumps
to hyperspace to visit him.
Following this, Boba arrives on the Smuggler’s moon, Nar Shaddaa, where he lands at the medical
clinic of one of his local contacts.
HIs contact is a besalisk, the same species as Dexter Jettster.
Boba quickly tells his old friend that the renowned Han Solo is inside the carbonite,
and once he is delivered to Boba, the Besalisk doctor will receive double his usual fee…
If he can keep him alive.
The doc reminisces that Solo was always the king of Bad Choices… and is somber to see
that they finally caught up to him.
Doc Ragon however tells Boba that he doesnt work on credit, and instead needs cash up
front.
Boba clearly doesn’t have the cash, to the doc offers another method of payment.
He wants Boba to travel to a nearby gladiator pit, and to enter the ongoing competition,
to assassinate a fighter named Wyrmen Lictor, who cost the doctor a lot of of money in the
past.
Boba is initially very hesitant to get involved in his doctor’s personal beef, and doesn’t
want any more enemies than he already has, but With Han quickly thawing out…
He really doesn’t have a choice.
Boba wants to kill this target on the spot, but Doc Ragon warns the bounty hunter that
he’ll have to bust through about a thousand of her guards to get to her…
In the gladiator arena however, anything goes.
It’s his best chance of kill her.
Boba is still very concerned, but has no choice but to agree to the deal if he wants to get
Han Solo back to Jabba…
Boba warns his doctor however that he’s still got one more problem.
Everyone will be targeting him as soon as they see his armor, since it has a pretty
big reputation, to put it mildly.
Doctor Ragon however has an easy solution.
He will spray boba’s armor with some nano-coating, which should evaporate off in a few days,
and will conceal his infamous red and green color scheme.
Boba agrees to this, and asks one final question “What’s this women's ranking in the arena”...
Doc Ragon sternly responds, telling Boba that he needs to listen more carefully, because
she’s very valuable…
She’s the champion.
Immediately following this, Boba Rushes over to the arena to register for his fights, and
is asked what his name is…
Standing tall in his night black mandalorian armor, Boba proudly tells the booth operator
that his name is Jango.
The booth operator then tells “Jango” that he can keep fighting until he either
dies or chooses to quit.
If he wins however, he will get triple his entry fee back.
Moments before entering the arena, the announcer calls out the next fight, revealing that boba
has taken the awesome stage name, The Beskar Brawler.
As the gates clank open, Boba is given a painful flashback to that dark day on Geonosis, where
his dad’s head was taken off by Mace Windu.
As he hears the announcer call out the name Jango to the arena, he is jolted back in time
to the memories he had of his father.
In his fully blackened armor, boba then rushes out into the arena, making quick quick of
most of the lower tier opponents, blowing head after head off, in the name of his father.
He was never going to forget that dark day, and wanted revenge in any little way he could
get it.
As jango continues to slice the heads off of every competitor, the announcer even calls
him out, saying “I’m starting to think Jango just hates heads”... which of course,
he does, fuelled by Mace Windu’s actions on Geonosis.
Boba continues on his killing spree, defeating anyone who comes up against him, all with
one thing in common.
Death by a blow to the head.
Following this, Boba is left as the final man standing, giving him a shot at the title,
and more important to face Wyrmen Lictor.
After moving inside the nearby hall, waiting for his big title fight, one of the other
fighters strikes up a conversation with him, and is not sure whether he should feel jealous
or sorry for the black armored fighter.
Boba is confused by this and asks what he means, to which he is told that he’s going
up against Wyrmen Lictor, the long time champion…
Of course Boba already knows this, but the other fighter warns him that he would wise
to take his winnings and back down while he still has a heartbeat.
Boba brushes this off however, telling him “I could use a good payday”, before standing
up and facing the arachnid champion.
The Announcer calls out the main card event, with the promising upstart Jango, taking on
the Reigning champion Wyrmen lictor.
The terrifying Wyrmen Licter stands, ready to attack boba with two blasters in hand,
but boba is ready to repel anything that comes his way.
Using his jetpack, boba zooms through the air, before unleashing a flurry of wrist rockets
at the creepy champion, knowing her blasters clean out of her hands.
Boba then activates his flamethrower, scorching his 8 legged opponent, but she’s having
none of it.
She immediately unleashes a stream of webs at Boba, temporarily tying him up, and disabling
his jetpack for the rest of the fight.
He’s on his own now.
The spider-like champion then leaps into the air, hoping to drop down on Boba, but he immediately
lifts his vibroblade from his belt and slices one of her legs cleanly in half, giving him
the upper hand.
Unfortunately, literally a few moments later, Boba’s armor is pierces by one of her other
sharp legs, leaving Boba in severe pain, bleeding out all of the arena floor.
Boba however has one more Mandalorian trick up his sleeve.
He reaches over to his gauntlet and activates the self-destruct switch on his backpack,
erupting the entire arena into a mass of smoke and flames, before sending a pile of rubble
to crush Wyrmen Lictor to death, once and for all.
The slimy pink guts of the Wyrmen Licter spread out over the entire area, absolutely repulsing
boba, but a job is a job, and boba is not one to give up, no matter how disgusting it
may be.
Boba has completed his bounty job for the doctor.
After finally taking down the champion, Boba goes to collect his winnings, but is stopped
by Wyrmen Lictor’s guards, who want to “protect” the money for him.
Boba really doesn’t care about the money at this point, so he just lets them keep it,
eager to return back to the doctor.
As Boba arrives back at the doc’s clinic, he is shocked to see a mysterious bounty hunter
brutally kill his old friend with a blaster bolt to the chest, before stealing Han Solo
in the carbonite.
This is obviously a big, big problem for boba, because he needs to return Han to complete
his job for Jabba…
You don’t want to get on the wrong side of Jabba.
Back at Jabba’s palace, Bib fortuna reports to boba that the great and powerful Jabba
is growing impatient for his prize, warning Boba that he should know better than to disappoint
the exalted and wise jabba.
Boba assures Jabba and Biba that he’s on his way with Han… but it’s going to be
a minute… and so begins the war of the bounty hunters…
So make sure you’re back here on the channel tomorrow to find out which bounty hunter stole
Han solo from boba, and another massive reveal which I can’t wait to share with you guys.
